• "These are too soft for exfoliating."
• "They are hard when you first get them, however once wet they become so soft like most sponges they are useless for exfoliating anything."
• "It’s really not that abrasive the black sponge is less abrasive then a towel. I dont like it, it feels like a scrub when the sponge does dry and hard only."

• "Its barely been 3 weeks and it is already shredding and falling apart."
• "The only complaint is the string that's put on the sponge to allow to hang it, it's flimsy and doesn't seem like it would hold up over repeated use."
• "They did fall apart (literally) after awhile."
• "The string to hang them by is literally a thread and seems incredibly flimsy."
• "I think it's little bit too hard to keep it clean."
• "The only concern I have is with having to replace the sponges around every 6-8 weeks."
