Zero Waste Natural sponges for dishwashing Handmade Eco Reusable unsponges Recycling sponges Kitchen Dish Scrubber 3 in Set

Edit: I bought these Aug 2022. Its now Feb 2024, and I'm buying a replacement set. These hold up really well! The main part that fails is the loop to hang the scrubber. You can just tie a new loop, or a big knot to catch on the hook and get a few more months out of them. I also tried using one as a bathroom scrubber with some barkeepers friend, and it fell apart fairly quickly, so I would stick to using soap and water for kitchen cleaning. Still love em, and buying more, so I would recommend them still!---So, a few people left negative reviews due to the scrubbers smelling like gas. Well, thats easy to solve, and besides that these are PERFECT! they are made from hemp... and my assumption is that the hemp is processed with some petroleum product as a solvent to remove certain chemicals from the hemp. If you do a quick google search on how to remove a gas smell from clothes, you will find that a soak in white vinegar for an hour will remove the smell. This holds true for these scrubbers as well.Now, moving onto their effectiveness... these are the best kitchen scrubber i have used, and i have tried a lot of them! With normal washing tasks, these hold onto soap well and have an effective level of abrasiveness without scratching what your cleaning. The weave of the hemp is loose, so it almost feels as if you are using one of those chainmail scrubbers. I really like this because it means when you are done cleaning, its easy to pull on the edges of the scrubber to open up the weave, and wash out any stuck food particles quickly.A bit more of a niche review, I also cook with cast iron / seasoned high carbon steel pans, and wanted a scrubber that worked well on those. Well, this is the perfect one. In the past, I have always had to keep 2 different scrubbers out on my counter, one for soap & normal dishes, and another dedicated to the cast iron that never had soap on it. These wash out quickly and fully, so you can run some water over it and give it a few squeezes and theres no more soap residue in it. The abrasiveness is good enough that it will clean out a cast iron with some burnt on bits in a few wipes. If you use some warm water and a lot of elbow grease, these can slowly remove some of your seasoning, which imo is a good thing (you have to purposefully scrub that hard, but allows you to clean burnt on mistakes without needing to use soap, which would damage your seasoning layer much more).so yeah, all in all, 10/10. maybe like a 9/10 since you have to soak in vinegar when you first get them, but its worth the effort. You can also clean them in the dishwasher / washing machine, but so far they have held up so well and cleaned so easily that i haven't needed to do that!

I actually really like these to wash my dishes over the loofah style dish sponges. They absorb my dish soap bar very well and rinse out and dry nicely. Definitely has a wet jute smell but not an issue for me. Soap lathers and retains very well imo with this sponge. Does not shed in any way for me so far. Between this and my dish brush I can tackle “hand wash only” dishes the way I need to. I’ve had it for over a month and it holds up like it’s brand new which says a lot as I used to have to replace my scrub daddy sponges every month since they would just fall apart after a while. All packaging was zero waste btw.Initially I told myself “Man these are pricey sponges especially since I could’ve knitted some myself!”. Alas, no. I’m not going to knit them myself and they work very well. I’m sticking with what’s available to me and with what works for my dishes and the environment.

I have bought this product twice. The quality first time was very good. Cleaned really well, dried quickly, held together and love how eco friendly it is. Second time around all 3 fell apart pretty quickly. I am hoping that was a bad lot and will give it one more chance.

Like them so much, I got them as Christmas gifts for my parents and brothers family. Really impressed by how long soap suds last (efficient) and how they just don't seem to wear down. I have been using the same one for six months now for all my dishes (no dishwasher 😭) and I cant tell the difference in wear since the first week. Amazing. I always store it soap free and hang/drape to dry. I use natural dish soap also. I hope this company lasts forever so I can always use these and keep giving them out. Thank you!

I really like this product, so much that I am writing one of my only reviews. I have used and washed these for a year and half and washed them dozens of times. 2 of them just started to unravel a little so I went to go repurchase. I know the ideal is to not ever have to replace an item, but if you don't find that small fabric rags do the job well enough and you do not like sponges (same on both), then these are absolutely worth it.Like I said, I have washed these dozens of times and have had them for a year and half+, and they are just starting to unravel. A more savvy person could probably figure out a good solution to keep them used, but I couldn't.I say I got enough of life out of these that I am happy to purchase again every couple years.Also, yes these do suds up just as well as sponges in my opinion, which was the only thing I really liked about sponges.

This is my 3rd time purchasing and they aren't as thick as they were before, but they are wider. I guess they used a different wave pattern to make them larger but with the same weight of materials. I'm disappointed. Based on the feel, I'd rather have the smaller thicker ones I purchased before. I only had to throw them out when the kids let them get beyond washing and reusing. I'll update this review after using them.Update #1 - they draw up a bit when wet making them feel more durable.
