Peachy Clean Antimicrobial Silicone Scrubber Reviews Summary

Durability

Pros:

• "They last as long as sponge products and I found they do not damage non-stick cookware."

• "They last a very long time, they don’t crumble or break apart."

Cons:

Scrubbing Efficiency

• "They can't stand up to any kind of scrubbing."
• "They are not good for removing baked on food."
• "Not abrasive enough for baked on foods or even cereal dried onto ceramic."
• "It does not scrub very well, and whenever I scrubbed any stubborn, stuck-on food, the sponge would deteriorate."
• "You can't scrub out a stain or stuck on food without tearing the sponge apart though."

Environmental Impact

Pros:

• "This sponge is neither absorbent or good for the planet."
