“Both of these products perform very well. The all purpose cloth lasts and lasts and washes well , the sponge scouter lasts well , longer then expected . It will buy again when they eventually need replacing”
“I love my Seepferds sponges and cloths. They feel nice in my hand, they do the job really well and when they need replacing I just cut them up and pop them in the compost. I LOVE that I can do that!!”
“Quite aside from the green benefits of using the Seep sponges, these are actually greatly superior to the ordinary supermarket sponges we were using previously. They are more absorbent, last longer, stay cleaner and are much nicer to work with.”
“After years of using regular supermarket brand washing-up sponges, the natural cleaning sponges took a little getting used to as they weren't quite as malleable. Having said that, they do actually become more flexible, and are a delight to use. Additionally, they seem extremely well-made and robust when compared to standard sponges, and I can well imagine each lasting several times as long. I haven't had cause to use the all purpose cloths, but they, too, have an impressive quality. I'm very happy with this purchase!”
“I love these washing-up sponges. They last at least as long as a regular synthetic version and arguably do a better job. I like to put a dash of soap on the sponge and they hold it better, so you use less liquid.”
“Unfortunately these are just no where near as good at cleaning as plastic sponges. The softer side is pretty good as a normal sponge, but disintegrates quite quickly. The loofah side doesn't really scrub very well. I was hoping these could replace plastic sponges but for me they unfortunately can't.”
Sorry to hear that they didn't hit the mark with you.
I guess it is useful to keep in mind that they are made 100% from plants, so the disintegration of the sponge is expected.
We do have other hardier products for tougher stains, such as our recyclable copper scourers and bamboo brush.
Please do email us at hello@theseepcompany.com as I would like to help you feel happier about this plastic-free switch😊
