They get the job done well, not too harsh, so work well for cookware. Wish they were compostable.

These sponges get the job done. They also are not an obnoxious color like most sponges are. They dry well inbetween uses too. Would recommend to anyone wanting to make the switch.

Works better than store bought sponges I think and I feel better using these than the plastic ones. When one is spent I move it to my bathroom and scrub my showers with it then toss it out. Really love these!

I wish these were fully compostable but I appreciate the materials they utilize. They work just as well as any other sponge.

Work even better than the usual commercial brands. They also don’t seem to develop an unpleasant smell like commercial brands do. Overall very happy with these sponges

Hi Brittney, these sponges are not compostable at the end of their life. For a fully compostable option, we love these natural loofah sponges!

Hi! We have been informed from Full Circle that all of their Sponges are safe for nonstick pans :D! We recommend the softer side of the sponge for a longer life for the pan!

Recommend these! They are basically just like the normal sponges but these are way better because they are ecofriendly!

Great alternative for the standard sponge. They fall apart after a while, but you’re suppose to replace sponges frequently anyway. Use for light cleaning, not heavy duty stuff. Get a wooden pot scrubber/brush for heavy cleaning.
Comes in plastic packaging, which is disappointing.

These sponges hold up well for everyday dishwashing and will now be my go-to sponges for cleaning. Like other reviewers mentioned, I was also bummed they are wrapped in plastic, but I have a TerraCycle single-stream box that I tossed the plastic wrapper in. I also like that these sponges are white on one side, so it’s easy to see if they’re dirty/stained from sauces or other concentrated foods.

This is a great alternative to the commercial sponges that end up in landfills by the thousands each week. The appearance even appears earth friendly. I ended up using as a gift basket ‘filler’ for my boss, because I decided to go for the natural cleaning brush on this website seeing I will get multiple use out of those. Otherwise this is a good product.

I bought as an alternative to the regular plastic sponges that I was buying and so far they are holding up well, they have definitley lasted longer and are better at removing the food from my dishes.

I don’t use my sponges for everyday dishwashing (I have a net kind of cleaning cloth that I use as my regular dish cleaner) and so my sponges are more for cleaning counters, the stove and that type of thing. It’s been great for that. I think the scrubby part might be a little delicate like many cellulose sponges but I think it’s worth it, especially since these seem to have a smaller disposal footprint and for my purposes, light use, they work great!

These are great sponges. They get very sudsy & hold a lot of dish soap on them without falling apart too quickly. Also a great price!

Hi, are these sponges 100% cellulose without any polyester mixed in?

Hi, Sam! These sponges are composed of cellulose and recycled plastic, with a walnut shell ‘scrubby’ part! If you’re looking for a fully compostable option, check out these Swedish dishcloths by Redecker or these scrubbier Brush with Bamboo Loofah Scrubbers! 🙂

Hi there! No, these sponges are not compostable, but they are made of plant-based materials. However, we do offer these sponges that are, if that’s what you’re looking for! 🙂

I like that these are a plant-based alternative to traditional sponges. It works great! Food doesn’t get stuck to it and it didn’t fall apart. I just wish it didn’t come wrapped in plastic.

I really like these sponges, they are comfortable in shape, soft on one side and have a really nice scrub on the other. I was worried about them wearing down quickly, however so far they held up really nicely. If they continue to hold up so well, I will definetely repurchase as there is no need for the usual sponges with plastic.

I have one in my kitchen and one at my work office and I love them. They work real well and like the idea of not using a regular sponge.

Can these be composted?

Admin EarthHero –
Hi Mandy — these scrubbers are made with walnut shells and recycled plastic, therefor they are not able to be composted. Thanks for asking!

Admin EarthHero –
Hi Sara,
Those sponges do come in plastic packaging, but we are actively seeking out other options that will use biodegradable or other packaging options! For now, you might be interested in our other cleaning products, such as this dish brush or this small brush that comes in a ceramic soap dish. Great question!
