Review on 🌿 Eco-Friendly Sponge: JK SP-T22 Large Cellulose Handy Sponges for Kitchen, Dish Washing, Car Washing - Natural, Efficient, and Convenient by Richard Stewart

Who knew it would take an expedition to find a basic sponge? This is exactly what I was looking for at Revain after my local stores almost stopped stocking plain, unadorned synthetic sponges. And I live in a metropolitan area of 4 million people. Unfortunately (well, I'm not entirely sad, except in a metaphorical, frustrated, philosophical way) nobody sells them anymore. , hardware stores, even the big and fancy Walmart bazaar stopped selling them. I can find huge ones to wash my car. But nothing else. I can find 12,000 options of all kinds of junk reinforced with scrubbing material (actually that's about a dozen options from a thousand vendors here at Revain). Have you ever seen what a shiny, highly polished pot looks like after it's been rubbed with Teflon? Has the younger generation decided (as they seem to do with most things) that their (erm) "elders" have nothing worth teaching about cleaning products and these cleaning sponges are great for, I don't know, everything? So is Facebook getting inundated with scrub marijuana nightmares? And China has responded by turning its ocean of Willy Wonka-style robotic sponge factories into the art of Teflon terror? appear! Note that the Teflon-coated versions come in a variety of attractive and not-so-attractive colors. This matte, straw-colored thing seems to be the only thing that can be used in plain, ordinary sponges. OK, I can handle that. It somehow blends into the accumulating crevices that seem to illustrate the reach of my kitchen and bathroom sinks, despite my best efforts to clean them. (With Teflon.) But. (Now for the review. Look, if you really want to read a review about a sponge — a sponge! — you only have to wander through the musings of my sometimes neglected but always active brain to get there.) These damn things are a lot too thin! But the factory saved an extra halfpenny on polymer, and sellers made an extra two and a half cents, which eventually trickled down (up?) Wall Street to make an extra 0.000004% profit per car. . Praise Jesus! In the past (e.g. medieval times 20 years ago) things were tested to see if they worked before they were made. Or in the case of sponges, you were just using common sense. How big is the human hand? How much soapy water should be absorbed? You know, NASA science. My two cents: These sponges are so thin that lateral finger force is insufficient to overcome the friction on the surface being wiped. They don't rub easily. They're also a little less dense than they should be, resulting in less absorption, more fragile properties, and less durability, so they don't last very long before needing to be replaced. The FIRST use of one of these on a very sharp German knife cut deep into the sponge. And no, I have good knowledge of the kitchen, several years of life and have never had such a problem with sponges. exist on the planet. Apart from the natural ones that aren't really useful, not to mention that they can be used for seven billion people? China, could we bring back our sponges? pretty please
