Blueland Scrub Sponge Review 2023 | Eco-friendly, zero-waste scrub sponge

MOSTLY A BUY. We love Blueland’s commitment to zero plastic and it stays consistent with their Scrubber Sponge— no plastic in packaging, 100% plastic free and made without glues or adhesives (it is hand-sewn with cotton thread instead). We love the two sides — loofah on one side for scrubbing, and 100% FSC certified cellulose on the other side for softer washing. The fact that its hand-sewn makes it more durable than other scrubber sponges we have used in the past — and we really like the light blue color, it’s way more aesthetically pleasing than many other sponges. Only complaint is that it is quite a bit more expensive than even other eco-friendly scrubber sponge options, but if we’re doing an order from Blueland, we’re happy to throw it in with our order.

Blueland Pop-up Sponge Review 2023 | Eco-friendly, zero-waste sponge

MOSTLY A BUY. We love Blueland’s commitment to zero plastic and it stays consistent with their Pop-up Sponge— no plastic in packaging, 100% plastic free and made of FSC-certified plant cellulose. It’s also certified by EPA Safer Choice and Leaping Bunny. We do love that it arrives super flat and compact (1/5th the size of a regular sponge) and ‘pops up’ when you add water. We’ve used it for 3 weeks now and that sponge has stayed remarkably fresh — we haven’t even had to throw it in the dishwasher yet — and we really like the light blue color, it’s way more aesthetically pleasing than many other sponges. Only complaint is that it is quite a bit more expensive than even other eco-friendly sponge options, but if we’re doing an order from Blueland, we’re happy to throw it in with our order.

Full Circle Walnut Scrubber Sponge Review 2020 | Eco-friendly Kitchen Sponge Alternative

After trying Public Good’s Walnut Sponge , we wanted to try Full Circle’s Walnut Scrubber Sponge as well — they appear to be very similar products, though Public Good’s version of the walnut sponge is a tad thicker than Full Circle’s Walnut Scrubber Sponge. Similar to our review of Public Good’s Walnut Sponge, we like that Full Circle’s walnut scrubber sponge is ‘cleaner’ than normal plastic sponges, but disappointed that it is still wrapped in plastic and not fully biodegradeable. Still a buy from us!
