Scrub Daddy earns rave reviews for cleaning performance and versatility, with users replacing traditional sponges thanks to durable scrubbers that don’t smell, adapt firmness with water temperature, and safely tackle everything from nonstick pans to glass stovetops and bathrooms. Reviews also flag weaknesses: some scrubbers shed or tear within weeks, can be too stiff or bulky, struggle with hot‑water scrubbing needs, trap food in pores, and raise sustainability concerns.

  • I love this sponge! I do a lot of hand washing and this is by far my favorite item to use when washing dishes. It gets everything off nicely and I recommend them.

  • I don't get the extreme hype about these but I thought it worked well and did it's job.

    I feel like it fell apart quicker than a normal sponge.

  • Resilient and the best thing to clean my kitchen, dishes, and house, in general. Scrub daddy is powerful yet gentle at the same time. If you need to scrub, you are able to put in a lot of power without damaging the surface. SD also last a long time and you can send it back to recycle.

    I love the send back program! I will never not use scrub daddy.

  • Love scrub daddy! I feel like it’s the perfect material, tough but doesn’t damage your cookwear. And the smiling face provides a nice grip.

  • I don't know if it's all the TikTok ad hype or what--but I'm a fan. The Scrub Daddy works really well to clean surfaces. It works well with the pink paste cleaning stuff too.

  • I love scrub daddy! I keep one by my sink and one in my shower for easy cleaning. I prefer the scrub mommy’s because they have the softer side as well. These are always high quality and work well. They last me longer than normal sponges.

  • This thing is fun and cleans well. If it had any other purpose, I'm sure it could fulfill that as well.

  • Generally like the clear non-dyed ones you find at Whole Foods. They do the job and last pretty well.

  • Was a bit hesitant to try this but a friend had one and she loves it. Now I love it.

  • Love my Scrub Daddy! I have re-purchased over and over & have even gotten my family in on the Scrub Daddy love. I love what they're doing with the dish washing game.

  • IM OBSESSED! I love Scrub Daddy! I was unsure at first and held off buying a sponge for awhile but man, I'm glad I pulled the trigger. I use it everyday and love that I can throw it in the dishwasher. Seriously so functional and the best sponge I've ever used.

  • These sponges are remarkable. They never hold a smell or become stained. You can run under cold water for harsh, stuck-on, stuff you're trying to remove. You can also run under hot water for items that are more delicate or susceptible to scratching.

    Feedback

    The website could be updated, it's outdated and not a good user experience. Also, shipping is very slow and scrubdaddy's full line isn't available through all retailers so you have to go to their website.

  • This is hands down the only sponge I will ever use. I have everything, scrub daddy, scrub mommy, damp duster, a caddy etc etc. They work like a charm, don't need to scrub too much to get caked on grease and the gunk just rinses right off of them.

    Feedback

    Nothing.

  • I was not originally a believer in the Scrub Daddy sponges, but they're honestly great. My roommate in college introduced me to the sponges—she had a couple different options like Scrub Mommy too—and they're great for cleaning up messes and dishes. They don't appear to get extremely dirty as quickly as the typical sponge would.

    Feedback

    No feedback in terms of how the product works (it's great!) but I would love to see more color neutral color options.
