Q: What percentage of the sponge is actually plant based versus recycled plastic? The fact that this is not disclosed just looks like greenwashing.

submitted by timmycue - 2 years ago
  • A: This is NOT true. They use recycled PET which is recycled plastics and polyester. If you call them, which I did, & ask them about the materials used, they will tell you it includes recycled plastics.

    submitted byRG0915 - 1 year ago
  • A: Hello - Thank you for asking. The scrubbing fibers made from 100% recycled content. The sponge made from 100% plant-based materials. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please connect with our team directly at 1-800-3M-HELPS Mo-Fri 8am-4:30pm CT.

These start to smell so gross and like a wet sponge (which I know it is but the classic gross smell they get is so yucky) really quickly. I find myself changing the sponge out after only a week or so and it feels wasteful, especially for a more “eco friendly” option

I can’t believe they have the audacity to put “most durable” on the packaging. They tore up quicker than any other brand I’ve ever tried. I live alone so it’s not like I use them on a regular basis or on a lot of things. I couldn’t imagine a family using these and expecting them to last a week.

Bummed - 6 months ago
I love these sponges, but was puzzled to see that the 6-pack is $1 more expensive than the 3-pack…. This seems a little deceiving to me, as most people will choose the larger pack to save a little money. You can buy two of the 3-pack for $7 or buy the 6-pack for $7.99… make it make sense. Are they hoping people don’t notice or don’t do the math and just buy it assuming it’s more cost effective, when it’s actually more expensive?? Hoping this isn’t the new deceptive thing stores are doing now. Prices have already increased while the size/quantity of products decreases so we’re already paying more for less. This new pricing tactic is not cool.

PotterGrl - 6 months ago, Verified purchaser
Scotch-Brite Greener Clean non-scratch scrub sponges just don't last very long. I wanted sponges that look better on my kitchen counter, so either white or light brown. They stopped making the brown ones that I loved so much, so I settled for these. I've bought a few packages and have decided I really don't like them. 1- They smell very quickly. Need the dishwasher daily. 2- The scrub side is sticky. Like it's breaking down. Icky feeling. 3- The scrub side stains easily and stays that way I think I'm going to have to go back to the blue version. I used those for many years and they work great, I just didn't want blue.

Scotch-Brite makes great sponges

3 out of 5 stars
Melina - 8 months ago
originally posted on scotch-brite.com
The new Greener Clean sponge works well, as expected. What I didn't expect is the interaction with my organic dish soap resulting in a film I would describe as liquid styrofoam. I've used my organic dish soap for a couple of years with many other Scotch-Brite sponges including the previous Greener Clean sponge made from wood pulp. Perhaps, there is some sort of manufacturing residue in the new Greener Clean sponge made from recycled plastic that is interacting with my organic dish soap. But, I found the "liquified styrofoam" reaction objectionable enough to not want to reuse the sponge. I have been searching on the internet trying to find the previous Greener Clean sponge (made from wood pulp) to no avail.

Just as Good as the Original

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I honestly prefer to use the Greener Clean, not due to the fact that it may potentially be better for the environment, but predominantly because I know it won't scratch some of my "polished" stainless steel kitchenware and the sink. It is, from what I noticed, just as effective as the original, especially when using powdered products like Comet, or BKF. I would imagine it's safest for those with glazed, or porcelain areas, as well.

Double cleaning power - sponge & scrubbie

5 out of 5 stars
Ohiogirl - 10 months ago
originally posted on scotch-brite.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great cleaning sponges -- from dishes to counters to bathrooms to anything else you need to scrub or use a sponge for. Besides the fact that they are greener clean, they are what you expect from #M, a great-working product. I like that there is a sponge on one side and a scrubbing side on the other. In the past I've had to drag around a sponge AND a scrubbie as I was doing my cleaning but this one does both. The scrubbie side doesn't feel very abrasive (and it's "soft" enough to use on non-stick pans) but it can really scrub. If you look at the photos, I used it (with no cleaning products) to scrub my copper sink. You can see where the greenish color that happens to copper came off with just a little scrubbing. I'll be buying more of these!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 3M sent me this sponge to try out and it's a very great sponge. I love that it's part of their greener line, because I know it's made from recycled material which is important to me. The sponge is very good at cleaning stuck on messes, but gentle enough to not damage anything.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a package of Scotch-Brite Greener Clean Non-Scratch Scrub Sponges free for testing purposes. Today I tested one on several surfaces. I scrubbed a stained coffee mug that had not come clean in the dishwasher. Using the Greener Clean Scrub Sponge and Dawn dish liquid, the stain came off. I then tested it on two non-stick pans that had burnt-on grease. Unfortunately, the non-scratch sponges made almost no difference on the burnt parts, but they did work on the unburnt parts. I also tested it on two aluminum toaster oven pans. It didn't work on those either. The last test was on my stainless steel kitchen sink, which came out nice and shiny.
