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.

  • Never thought id love a sponge enough to leave a review but here we are. WOW. love this product.

  • Best scrubber by far. I recently moved on my own and this has made the dishwashing experience a little bit better. Super resistent, does not start to smell funky after some time and actually does a crazy good job.

    Only thing is that it is too big for some cups making it hard to clean, other than that a 10/10.

  • Okay, I was skeptical about Scrub Daddy at first. After watching the Shark Tank about this sponge with my parents, and my dad thinking it was just hysterical, I ordered him one and sort of forgot about it. Then, during my next visit, I saw he had the Scrub Daddy & Scrub Mommy and had to ask more about them. Both of my parents love that they're so functional (like using the 'mouth' to clear off spoons) and just generally delightful to look at near the sink. I got my own and have to agree that these are really durable and don't get as gross as other sponges!

    It might feel a little crazy to spend a little more on what seems to be a smiley face sponge, but it really is one of (if not the) most useful items that we've picked up!

  • I never thought I’d be the person in my 30’s writing rave reviews for sponges - but here we are. I love these products - the smily face sponge makes washing dishes dare I say…enjoyable? They never smell or get gunk stuck on them. 10/10 would recommend.

  • Absolutely love scrubdaddy. Their line of cleaning supplies and sponges is amazing. The quality of the product exceeded my expectations and I absolutely love the packaging and the price! It is strong enough to clean my pans without scratching them.

    Overall great product!

  • Scrub Daddy is a great product to have in your kitchen. It's cute and works well - it scrubs everything down.

  • Scrub daddy is my go to for getting off tough stains or foods from my pans! It has become a staple in my house and I would always recommend it.

  • Great dish cleaner. Love that it has a changing texture and is really effective for cleaning pans without scratching. It also holds up well and lasts longer than a traditional scrub sponge.

  • What cleaning product on the market compares to the Scrub Daddy? It really is the best. High-performance indeed and cute to boot!

  • I love scrub daddy!! I hate when sponges get that mildew smell which happens so quickly sometimes and I have to spend more money replacing it. The scrub daddy never gets that smell and lasts longer and is more cost effective.

    Trust me once you use this you’ll never go back to the other sponges.

  • Scrub daddy is one of the best sponges I have used in my busy household. They always have fun and cute sponge designs that effectively can clean my dishes to perfection. Love how high-performance they are, and I even use it to clean my kitchen and bathroom. Definitely recommend.

  • Scrub daddies are amazing! They will last forever and you can always throw them into the dishwasher to sanitize them.

  • I will never use a standard sponge again......................... I typically buy a multicolor three pack to color code for cleaning, I use them for everything, dishes to deep cleaning. They stay fresh and firm for weeks.

  • What a cool product that actually works! Love this little guy. Works on tough dishes

  • I love scrub daddy! It's helpful with stubborn dishes + sticky messes around our house

    Feedback

    I really liked it even though I'm not a sponge girl - I do like Scrub Mommy better (dye free)

  • I always would see this product on my daughters sink counter, but never bought one because I thought it was too hard. I ended up getting one on a whim, and was totally wrong about the product.

    Love, scrub daddy and all of the scrub daddy products! Works hard on caked on food in Greece and gentle on your pots.

  • Ok this is the funnest sponge I've ever used. Also the most effective & comfortable to use!
