Miracle Market Silicone Dish Sponge 12.5 x 6.8 x 1.6 cm, 3 Pack | Gentle and Hygienic Kitchen Silicone Sponge for Non-Scratch Dish Washing, Cleaning | Colorful Multipurpose Dish Scrubber + e-book

Waste of time and money. Tiny and flimsy so not remotely fit for purpose. They might be able to wash items that don't actually get dirty, such as drinking glasses, but make zero impact on any items with dried on food. As for tough washing up such as oven dishes with baked on food, or meat grease I didn't even bother to try. So there is no way these could replace a traditional washing up brush (which can also be cleaned by rinsing food out and putting through a dishwasher cycle, so is equally reusable) and at least a brush has a handle as these things are not easy to keep hold of in the water. Think of the one star I had to give as being for the bright colours they come in.

I've replaced my washing up sponges with these silicone pads. I love the bright colours, they are very tactile and they do a good job in cleaning pots and pans. Although they are not intended for cleaning burnt pans I was able to remove quite a bit after a soak in hot soapy water using the pads. I've also used them for cleaning the work surfaces and the top of the hob unit too. I've only had them a week but so far all is great. Very happy with them and to have been able to stop using the disposable supermarket sponge cleaners.

This was my first try of this kind of Sponge and I am a bit disappointed. I can not say that my dishes become as clean as with my regular Sponge. I will use it for the not so dirty things. But they can't even remove tea stains in cups. As well was I appalled by the packaging it arrived in. 3 Sponges EACH packed in plastic bags. All together in another plastic bag, which then was put into another plastic bag. Overkill of plastic bags.

I liked the idea of something that could be easily cleaned and was more durable so better for the planet but in reality, I didn't find these were any good for washing up and wouldn't buy them for that purpose. They are good for sitting bars of soap on in the bathroom to stop them getting soggy in water!

I bought these to replace the sponge scourers used for washing up because they seemed to offer a more hygienic solution. I do like them but have a few quibbles. When cleaning tomato sauce off plates, the green one stained and I haven’t been able to wash the stain out, no matter how hard I scrub. They clean most dishes well, but are a little flimsy and not really suited to scrubbing dried on food from plates, even after a bit of soaking. For this I have resorted to keeping a sponge scourer around for this type of washing up job, which defeats the purpose of buying them. They are nice and bright and I like that they dry out completely between use. However, the fact one has absorbed a stain means I’m not sure how hygienic they really are.

Bought these after seeing an amazing advert for how good they are. However, the product is difficult to hold & is only good for a minimal amount of scrubbing ie general washing up of plates, cups etc and not heavy duty pans. They bend very easily but so do the little ‘fingers’ making it difficult to clean anything.

At first I was sceptical, but silicone is better than plastic / sponges, so I thought 'hey, why not?' Plus, no throwing away really as you can put them in the dishwasher...... Felt a little odd at first on plates / glasses, but having shared the 3 amongst friends / family, I think we're converted! Will buy another set for other areas of the house - a good little find :)

I am sold on the idea of these being a good replacement for throw-away scour pads. I feel they are hygienic (and easier to clean). However, this particular brand is very small - I would want double the size in my hand. I tend to fold it over if I have particularly dirty pan to scrub. Delivery was slow, but the price was good.
