Full Circle Walnut Scrubber Sponges, Pack of 2 – Dual-Sided, Plant-Based & Recycled Kitchen Sponges, Gentle on Nonstick Cookware

My favorite sponges! I can’t stand a smelly sponge and that doesn’t seem to happen with these. They hold up well so perfect for me.

These are the BEST sponges on the market. They are made of natural and biodegradable walnut shell, are gentle, but also tough. They last for weeks if not MONTHS if you keep them clean (and dry, this is key to keep sponges from getting really yucky) and during this time you can actually see them start to biodegrade, so when one starts to fall apart to where it's not really usable anymore, you don't fell bad about throwing it away bc it will finish breaking down and won't just sit in a landfill basically forever like synthetic sponges will! This is awesome (and essential for the health of our planet) considering it is such common product we all will use many of during the course of a lifetime. Amazon has also now made them way more affordable so more people can buy them too, whoo hoo!!! Forget the green sponges and go green with these, instead.

These are the only sponges we use to clean dishes! They work well and I like the materials better than the typical yellow/green sponges you find all over the place. They also are more appealing colors.

Whoever invented the first sponge with a scrubber surface made it easier to clean up everything around the sink. Except for one thing: the sponge itself. Many scrubbers trap grease. And the fibers they are made of "pill". Depending on what you clean, they may last just a few hours or days. The walnut shell scrubber sponge is different. In my kitchen, it holds up longer than most scrubber sponges and it's easier to clean between uses. (Your mileage may vary.) I noticed a less expensive competitor, the Natural Value Walnut Scrubber Sponge (Pack of 24) . I haven't tried it. It looks the same but the cleaning instructions differ. The Natural Value is sanitized by boiling. The Full Circle can (when wet and wrung out) be disinfected in the microwave (2 minutes on high) or (like any cellulose sponge) washed in a dishwasher. Beware: I don't know whether someone with a tree nut allergy could suffer an adverse reaction to this sponge, or even to something that was cleaned with it, but I've read that both are possible. Probably because of the allergy risk, the similar and lower-cost 3m Scotch-Brite Natural Fiber Scrubbing Sponge 63C no longer contains nut products. I haven't tried it. I took off one star because the instructions are not clear about disposal/compostability.

I like the scrubber

Great quality sponges. Holds a good about of soap and gets the stuck on food off of my dishes.

My favorite sponges.

Honestly I really wanted to love these, but I just couldn't. The scrubbing side gets damaged SO quickly- they really dont last. Also I was using it with a vegan block soap and together made a fishy smell? Maybe with another soap these would word but I wouldn't buy these again. They're not terrible - I just know I can get better.

Ordered them as I was recommended by a friend and really wanted an environmentally friendly alternative that still did the job, and it does! I see no difference between this sponge and other plastic sponges I've used in the past, except this one doesn't disintegrate as easily, and to disinfect it I just plop it in the microwave for 30 seconds and it's good as new. I'll be continuing to use these for the foreseeable future, and recommending them to all my family and friends.

Love these sponges!!!!

Eu tinha medo dela ser dura e chata de usar, mas não. Gostei bastante. Inclusive achei que minha panela ficou mais brilhosa com essa esponja. : ) A durabilidade dela é menor se comparada às esponjas tradicionais, mas o objetivo é justamente não ser "eterna" como as feitas de plástico. Recomendo.

Muy caro, pero relativamente durarero

Love this sponge. Works well and is good for the environment too. Simple.
