Jetz-Scrubz J22 Scrubber Sponge, Round, Made in the USA

These are the only sponges I use for my kitchen because they won't smell like mildew and they last a long time. What a great buy!

This is probably one of the best dish scrubbers ever invented. It is very durable, it scrubs better than any other scrubber I’ve ever used including scrub daddy, and it lasts anywhere between one to three months. Definitely worth the money you spent on it. This is the only describe where are used

I’ve purchased these multiple times, they’ve become my exclusive kitchen sponges since I discovered them. Most recently (early September 2020), six 3-packs of the round for $16...18 sponges! Perhaps I didn’t read the listing correctly but considering how long these last, I won’t need to buy sponges for a looong time. I saw a review giving these very low ratings saying it was absurd that these could last months…I can tell you that they absolutely do.Amazon gives three categories for rating these: scent, longevity, durability. I gave five out of five stars for each. Scent was puzzling to me…I gave five stars because they have no unpleasant odour of their own, neither do they have some sort of artificial fragrance added to mask the foul odour is that sponges tend to take on. No odour at all is just right. And Jetz-Scrubz sponges NEVER SMELL FOUL...you all must know that characteristic gross smell that sponges always get. If they take on onion or garlic odours, these are easily eliminated in my customary weekly microwaving to kill germs, whether they’re there or not. First I spray on an alcohol-lemongrass sanitising spray I made and they smell fresh and clean.It is true that the scrubby side can hold on to food particles but isn’t this true of all scrubby sponges? I try to soak the item well first to soften and dislodge said particles, then use NON-scrubby side as particles don’t stick there, only using scrubby side after that. And the scrubby side is totally non-scratching to delicate surfaces, by the way. After a few months (yes, you read that right) the scrubby side starts to break down, leaving little bits in the sink. The non-scrubby side starts to look pitted here and there.I purchase both shapes, round and rectangular...the round I designate for dishes and cutting boards (surfaces that food goes on); the rectangular sponges are for wiping the counters and around the sink, maybe the stovetop if it isn’t too bad.This may seem silly but one of my favourite things about these sponges is that they are black. They sit on edge in the draining holder at the kitchen sink and look...nice, if you can imagine saying such a thing about sponges. Much more attractive than vivid primary colours with contrasting scrubby sides.

The round & retangular  The Original Magic Jetz Scrubz J27 Scrubber Sponge Rectangle  Jetz Scrubz sponges are the best kitchen / bathroom / general cleaning sponges I have ever found. They "seem" pricy at $5.00+ each, but the last longer than a dozen typical regular sponges. AND they can easily be washed and sanitized - even strong bleach does not seem to affect them. They can even be run through dishwasher too! The only damage either of ones I purchased has suffered in 6 months of use is a slight cut to soft side of one when I cut it when cleaning a very sharp knife a little. The rough scrubbing side I have used on all types of surfaces from granite to marble to wood to plastic thru simulated stone resin -- it cleans & scrubs well and NO scratches on anything.These are tough little devils and well worth the initial investment. Again, one gets what one pays for and in this case bonus too as can be used on any surface I have found.One drawback to them. They will not soak up as much water as most sponges and definitely not near as much as a natural sponge so not as good for picking up big spills, but that is due to material used and porosity of the sponge and also the reason it will stand so much re-use after cleaning out and disinfecting. Unlike a typical sponge this one can be easily cleaned & not fall apart after two or three cleanings and therefore not harbor bacteria if you use it properly.You can save even more if you buy the 3 pack of rectangular ones  The Original Magic Jetz Scrubz J22 Scrubber Sponge Round  ; you will have one for kitchen, one for bathroom and a spare! For you people interested in something 'pretty' there is also the  Jetz Scrubz Scrubber Sponge - Apple Shape  but not being one for trendy cutsie things I haven't tried it.MOST HIGHLY RECOMMEND -- Spend a little more and save a lot.

Doesn't clean very well or remove the smallest of stain/direct, even with maximum effort

I read about how these sponges resist stink. As someone who's only ever used traditional sponges that smell nasty after a few uses, I was doubtful. But it's true, these (somehow, through some miracle) don't stink and hold up pretty well. The scrubby side works well, as does the soft side for gentler cleaning. No complaints. These will be my kitchen sponge of choice from now on.

I llike the shape and size of it. I also like how well it holds soap, yet easy to rinse. I really loved it, until I realized it's scratching my expensive non-stick cookware and my clear storage containers. I don't even apply much pressure, and it's still showing swirl marks on the cookware, and dulling and marks on the containers. I made sure to buy something that said it didn't scratch, so I'm quite disappointed.

I've found this sponge to be really helpful, only problem is the soft sponge side easily cuts. We don't use the blade against it, we use it the other way (dull top portion of blade) for cleaning and on other thin items it cuts up so easily :( We're so disappointed. If we're doing something wrong, help would be appreciated.

I was so fed up of normal sponges that start to smell really bad in no time!this sponge does not smell at all period.It cleans well and is durable.Works great+ no smell !!
