Scrub Daddy earns glowing reviews for making cleaning faster and more effective—its FlexTexture sponges cut through baked‑on grime without scratching, resist odors, and last longer than typical sponges—while some reviews note durability can wane (shedding, tearing, softening) and the hot/cold firmness can be inconvenient for those who wash in hot water. Reviews also praise the versatile lineup (Scrub Mommy, Dish Daddy, Power Paste, Damp Duster) and the utensil‑friendly smile design, but mention bulkiness, food trapping, and sustainability concerns as recurring drawbacks.

  • The Scrub Daddy is my ultimate cleaning product this year. I keep buying it over and over again. And you know what? The best part is you can leave it wet and it won't get that funky smell. Love it! I also love scrub daddy and the power paste

  • Shark tank OG legend… cheap price and worth the hype. You can’t help but feel happy when you see the scrub daddy on your sink. Knocking a star because I don’t think they are sustainably made.

  • Daddy and Mommy have both changed how I do dishes. Now if I’m in a house without these, I am reminded that sponges can get gross. Great product and easy to find

  • I have thrown out all other types of sponges and strictly use this brand. They hold up well and are sturdy enough help me get in there and really clean certain areas.

  • I am kind of obsessed with these. I was doubtful at first. They’re amazing to scrub pots with. Like the kind you burn stuff on the bottom with. The paste is meh I prefer my blue dawn but the scrubber itself is 💯 worth it.

  • This is the only sponge I’ll use for cleaning. I feel like it gets everything the cleanest and doesn’t get the foul odor of regular sponges.

  • Have the original and the one with the soft side. Love that it goes soft in warm water and is so easy to clean.

  • Its the best scrubber ever! Makes scrubbing so easy. I hate doing the dishes by hand because I don't feel things get as clean as in the dishwasher, however Scrub Daddy makes it very easy to clean everything and scrubbing a breeze. I also use a separate scrubber to clean the bathroom and it makes cleaning the shower and the bath extremely easy. Love that you can also control the hardness of the scrubber with the water temperature and its super absorbent which makes it perfect for very sudsy cleaning products.

  • Just a simple, great product that works! Guess thats why it is a shark tank success!

  • I love my scrub daddy. He brightens up my sink and always gets the job done. If he gets a little grubby, you can just toss him in the dishwasher and he’s good as new. I totally recommend this brand!

  • It's not bad but would be better if it stayed more firm in cold water. Also, it would be nice if they held up better.

  • Love love love the scrub daddy! Very durable and lasts me a long time. Plus I have multiple for dishes, bathroom cleaning etc

  • This thing is so effective, I want to send it a card and a tie on Father's Day.

  • Can’t imagine how we all lived without this in our lives!

  • I’m a fan of all of the innovative products they produce. Having a smiling brush head staring at me when ever I wash the dishes always makes me feel a little bit better. I’m also a huge fan of the Power Paste, it really gets everything sparkling!

  • It’s a great product and works great, i don’t see how it exceeds any other sponge although I do like the shape. Probably a little overhyped but it does its job well.

  • My sister insist on always having a scrub daddy in her house and I never understood why, until our hotel room supplied one for us and this thing really gets the job done. Super durable, love the cute smile, and gets rid of tough scrubs that the average sponge wouldn’t.

  • The dye free sponge is all I use! Well worth the money. Excellent quality and lasts a long time. I never thought I would care about a dish sponge until I started washing baby bottles, and discovered that most sponges contain terrible chemicals, dyes and synthetics. I’m glad I can trust Scrub Daddy.
