Well I'm perplexed. Mine gets as hard as a rock. Makes me really wonder if they changed it or if something is wrong with them.

I think the demo for the Scrub Daddy gives people the wrong idea.

 

I don't find them to work all that well with just water, for a mess like they show on the stovetop. In those cases, it needs some kind of cleaning agent, but what is great about them is they don't scratch.

 

The newer version Scrub Mommy is a much better and more versitile product. I like it so much better and will probably never buy another Scrub Daddy again.

I haven't tried the scrub daddy but QVC does sell a case of magic eraser sponges very reasonable and I get them about once a year. I love magic erasers, the case for around $25 lasts me a year. Much better priced than buying them at the grocery store, and you can't beat how well they clean.

I have one scrub daddy I got at home depot.  I use it on the glass top stove.  I don't put it in the freezer.  It's firm with water.

@Tara811  Buy the clay cleaner sold here, it removeds anything and without scratching.

My Scrub Daddies have worked just like they show on the demo - in cold water if you want it firm and warm/hot if you want it soft.  They don't last forever, though.  After awhile, they do weaken and thin out.  For me, that's what tells me it's time to replace it.  I bought the set of Scrub Mommies recently - have't tried them yet but will tomorrow for sure.

Never thought to put it in the freezer.  Mine did not get hard just putting it in cold water, like they said it would. 

 

Then I bought the scrub daddy and scurb mommy stuck together.  Well, after ONE use, they came apart.  VERY DISAPPOINTED.  Got rid of them and will not buy again.  Do not think they are that great.

I bought the Scrub Daddy in the grocery store. Hard as a rock in cold water. Soft in hot. I don't find it that great, or the Magic Erasers. I always need some type of cleanser.

When the very first Scrub Daddy's came out they were a totally different product than they are now. Those first batch lasted and lasted. The new ones are falling apart during the first use. 

 

I still have some to use up, but I'll never buy another Scrub Daddy or Scrub Mommy. 

 

The Campenelli sponges are the best thing I've found. I have several sets, and hope Q keeps carrying them. They last forever. Quality and performance are miles ahead of the newer Scrub Daddy's
