Edit: it has been a year. I am still using the same individual cleaner of steel wool I began with this time last year. It changed shapes, but hasnt degraded. I found as long as you rise it out after use, and shake out all the water, it prevents it from degrading and getting small rust spots. I use it every day. Im now sold on this brand. I have included a photo of what the cleaner looks like after a year of daily use. I put it on a yellow sponge to show it better.

Old review below:
Maybe its because of my caveman hands, or that my mother never showed me how to scrub pots, but I was not very impressed with how these expensive steel pads that basically went from a cute ball of curls to what looked like a wet rat that had just been run over by the morning express 🚌💨

Yes, it did the job, but let me tell you, scrubbing isn't like the commercials. No one swipe to unwanted baked-in grease, these stains, like trying to get rid of unwanted house guests take work, like consistent, patient work.

Did they come off, yes, but I feel like it was arm day at the gym, and I don't go to the gym, so my arms feel like overdone spaghetti.

I bought some of that bartender friends to help degrease and scrub, that review is pending, but like these, maybe I do not know how to use it, but it's no podium finisher for me as well.

Anyway. YMMV.

In short, they did the job. They died trying. But for the price? I won't be buying these again. And after reading reviews about how these are like heirloom steel pads and how each will easily last a year, I of course bought two boxes.. and the boxes are tiny. Like Alice in wonderland tiny. Nothing about this product was as expected. 🤷

Seller however was flawless.

These are THE BEST and they last a long time, even when down to a tiny piece, they beat all others by a long stretch. Don't settle for a knock off.

Best on the market..

Love these and motherin law also

Love it specially because it doesn't get rusty
