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.

  • They are the absolute best sponges. Love how they can go for hard to softer based on water temp. Last forever too. Don’t smell.

  • scrub daddy & scrub mommy are essential in any functioning kitchen. super fun, kids love them (I can trick them into actually helping with the dishes now).

  • I HATE sponges with a passion and I am in deep smit with this sponge. Why is it so good? It’s so satisfying to use and cleans ANYTHING. 20/10 recommend

  • Such a useful sponge! I won’t go back to the plain rectangle sponges because this one works so much better.

  • Love it. They last a while, are cheap, and get everything so clean, even stuck on grease. Packaging is fun too.

  • I can't believe I'm rating a sponge, but... this one deserves it. I burn everything. Some of my pots and pans have seen days of baking soda-soaks. But with Scrub Daddy, things have been much easier! This sponge is hella sturdy – I can really put some elbow grease into it without it tearing or giving up on me. Plus, there's something about the sponge that makes it easy to rinse all the guck out and re-use it without it getting grimy. Cheers to you, Scrub Daddy. You're certainly not seen as a scrub in my house.

  • I never thought I’d love a sponge. It’s larger than I imagined, but so innovative and easy to use. I use them for dishes and cleaning the shower- it flys by with this easy to hold sponge. I’m partial to the sponge mommy, I like the softer side for pots and pans.

  • Obsessed. Have so many backups under my sink. These are life changing.

  • I wish whoever made this product sleeps very well at night. It just about eliminated everything I do not like about the regular cleaning sponge, most especially the foul odor. The scrub daddy does not ever smell when dry and it's highly effective with cleaning kitchen items!

  • A great cleaning product + company - Scrub Mommy > Scrub Daddy, though.

  • Such a great product! I bought one from the container store because they had a nice neutral color available in stock! I have had so much fun exploring what this tool could do in my kitchen. I will say I felt like it needed a replacement quicker than my other sponges I use.

  • I was weary because of all the people on TikTok raving about it. Sometimes you can’t trust what people say, but WOW. I love this product it’s dishwasher safe which makes it last longer and it cleans very well. Super happy with this purchase.

  • Absolutely love scrub daddy! I can use it for anything and everything! I use it for dishes, tough stains in my pans. Scrubbing stains out of my clothes and even for cleaning around the house. The brush does not leave any harsh scratches behind and results in a clean home.

  • I love these! Just seeing the shape in my sink brightens my day to be honest, to the point where I added them to the inventory list at work, haha. I really enjoy that they have different themed sponges; scrub mommy, baby etc. I personally haven't noticed that much of a difference in the sponge-ness scrub factor between when using hot and cold water, but I'll need to ask around to make sure that's not just user error .

  • I’m not a skilled at cleaning and often dread my weekly bathroom clean. I love using the scrub daddy lineup. It’s price effective and truly works well. I noticed a difference between the scrub daddy and other competitors!

  • I love the scrub daddy range, the fun colours and editions just bring a little happiness to a very hated chore- I love that it can be used both soft and hard, for glasses and then caked on food
