  • Odor-resistant, hygienic foam
  • Scratch-free, effective scrubbing

Scrub Daddy earns strong reviews for being an effective, long‑lasting scrubber that tackles baked‑on grime without scratching, resists odors, and even shifts texture with water temperature; however, reviewers note durability can vary with heavy use, food can lodge in the pores, and the round shape or thickness can be awkward for some tasks. Overall, Scrub Daddy is considered a good buy for dishes and multi‑surface cleaning, with standouts like Scrub Mommy and Dish Daddy, but a few users prefer softer sponges or wish for greater longevity and eco‑materials.

  • My Scrub Daddy is THE best! I love that when it’s dry, it can safely scrub everything off really easily, and when it’s wet, it gets so soapy.

    Feedback

    If you can come up with a baby scrubby that could also clean spoons, it would change my entire life.

  • I recently just bought the scrubmommy bc im easily influenced and *sigh* it's as good as they say it is. It got some black stains off of my stainless steel pots and I was pleasantly surprised that it did what the founder said it would do

  • The "Scrub Mommy" product is the best. I like to have both the scrubby side and the soft side. The scrubby side is much stiffer (but not more abrasive) than a normal sponge.

    Feedback

    Once the Scrub Daddy starts falling apart, it disintegrates pretty quickly.

  • I am notbcrazy about this product. Before you get it wet, it is very stiff. It is just like any other sponge once it is in water.

    Feedback

    All and all ot is ok. Nothing too different than any other scrubbing sponge.

  • Excellent quality products. I found it great to remove a variety of stains from work place to home this product works.

    Feedback

    Excellent product no recommendations for changes

  • Used a Scrub Daddy / Scrub Mommy and loved how it cleaned. Both sides were useful for different tasks. The drawback was when the daddy started shedding. Now I have bits of whatever it is getting everywhere and going down the drain, which probably isn't great for our sewer/water system.

    More sustainable product. Less deterioration. I guess you have to throw them out quickly once they start losing strength.

  • Scrub Daddy's products are LITERALLY the best! I've used the original Scrub Daddy, Scrub Mommy, and Dish Daddy and I would recommend them to anyone. These sponges work so well and I'm not even exaggerating when I say I'm excited to try out the rest of Scrub Daddy's products. If you haven't tried them yet, you totally should!

  • I love this brand. I bought the bargain box with a bunch of different product in it like the daddies, mommies, erasers, screen daddies, and a daddy caddy for the sink. I’ve tried them all and without fail, they outshine and out work the competitors. Sponges are icky but scrub daddy stays smell free and hold up for quite a while.

    Feedback

    Food definitely gets stuck in the daddy. Definite have to give it a post wash “wash” to get the particles out. I do love the weird faces an almost dead scrub daddy makes when it dries in the caddy.

  • Always a savior when washing dishes I love it and I would never get anything else

  • I absolutely love cleaning with my Scrub Daddy! It's firm enough to really clean my pots and pans without scratching their surface and I feel like it's more hygienic to use than regular sponges. I'm a huge fan of Scrub Daddy, even though they're a little bit pricier than their counterparts.

    Feedback

    The only helpful tip I can provide is to dip your Scrub Daddy in bowl of cold water with ice for a few seconds to help it firm up to help with cleaning really tough jobs. On the other hand, run your Scrub Daddy under hot water to help "relax" it for gentler cleaning needs.

  • I Like these but to be honest I don't think they are that much better then normal scrubber's. they do stay firm for a while but I definitely don't think you need this to get your house clean..

    Feedback

    I think that its a good design. but i think it should be a little bit bigger or thicker.

  • Very effective in cleaning food and gunk off dishes, while remaining gentle enough you don’t worry about harming your dish ware. The design makes it fun to use. I appreciate the functionality of the mouth serving dual-purpose of perfect shape to clean spoon.

    Feedback

    None

  • Only sponge I use. The best thing is that it never gets stinky. Bad thing is the price.

  • I felt like with my pot pans and the rest of my house I can’t clean it as good with out my scrub daddy !!

  • Scrub daddy cleans well and is a great brand! I also like their other products

    Feedback

    My only feedback is that the sponge itself is quite scratchy and I feel like it hurts my hands sometimes

  • Awesome best thing to use to clean with

  • Literally my FAVORITE sponges. I love the daddy and mommy sponges. I'll never go back to a regular sponge. The holiday collections are also so much fun!

    Feedback

    Nothing - perfect as is.

  • Obsessed with my scrub daddy. I was influenced by TikTok to purchase this along with a cleaning agent. It has saved my glass stovetop time and time again! Works well on water stains too.

    Feedback

    Love their sponges! I need to branch out and get other products.

  • I have been using Scrub Daddy for over a year now and this is the best sponge replacement. The standard green and yellow sponge that others typically use smells, breaks down, and costs more due to it the number of replacements to buy because it does not last long. The Scrub Daddy easily breaks down whatever gunk may be on any of your dishes and counters. If after a month or two I ever start to feel like it is getting close to having to buy a new one, I take the old one and find a different use for it such as cleaning the bathroom. There are easy ways to extend its life because it simply can last that long with little to no issues.

    Feedback

    If you are considering this brand, I highly recommend it. I will never buy a different brand again.

  • This has replaced all my other sponges. The texture is amazing and it’s reaction the water temperature has made cleaning a breeze. The face makes cleaning things like utensils way easy too.

    Feedback

    I do wish it came in more colors than yellow. This may just be my experience as I bought it from a big box store
