Dishwashing bundle

Cleaned my dishwasher itself of grime left by my old detergent! Also cleaned dishes better than the old detergent, even if we didn't scrape/rinse dishes as thoroughly! It still left hard water deposits on glasses, though.

I like my Ajax liquid detergent because as compared to larger name brands it does exact same thing it's less expensive and it's just the name that I recognize from my childhood is something that I know I can depend on so if you need more than that it's proof that Ajax dish detergent is a good product I don't know what to tell you!

As someone who goes through kitchen sponges fairly regularly, especially with pots and pans that see a lot of action, I decided to give the Great Value Heavy Duty Scrub Sponges a try. I'm generally looking for something that can handle tough, baked-on messes without falling apart immediately, but I also don't want to spend a fortune. Performance: The "Heavy Duty" label isn't just for show. The dark green scrubbing side is genuinely abrasive and does a respectable job tackling stubborn food residue on my stainless steel cookware, baking sheets, and even the grill grates (with caution). It requires some elbow grease for the really tough stuff, but it definitely cuts through grease and grime better than a standard, non-scratch sponge. The yellow sponge side is pretty standard – it holds soap well and is good for wiping down surfaces after scrubbing or for lighter cleaning tasks. Durability: The durability is acceptable for a budget brand. I found a single sponge typically lasts me about 2-3 weeks of regular, fairly heavy use before the scrubbing side starts to wear down noticeably or the sponge begins to feel a bit compressed and less effective. They don't disintegrate prematurely, which is a plus at this price point. Like any sponge, they need to be rinsed thoroughly and squeezed dry to minimize odors. Caution: Be warned – the "Heavy Duty" scrubber is truly abrasive. Do NOT use this on non-stick pans, delicate glassware, countertops, or any surface prone to scratching. It will leave marks. Stick to using these on surfaces that can handle serious scrubbing, like metal pots/pans (not copper), oven interiors, grills, or utility sinks. Value: This is where the Great Value sponges really shine. You get four sponges for a very low price compared to leading name brands. While they might not last quite as long or feel as robust as some premium options, the cost savings make them an excellent value proposition, especially if you use sponges heavily for tough jobs. Overall: If you need an affordable, no-frills sponge specifically for heavy-duty cleaning tasks on durable surfaces, the Great Value Heavy Duty Scrub Sponges are a solid choice. They offer good scrubbing power and reasonable durability for the price. Just be mindful of their abrasive nature and keep them away from delicate surfaces. I'd buy them again for tackling the tough jobs where I don't want to wear out a more expensive sponge.

The Scotch-Brite Stainless Steel Scrubbing Pads helped me clean the toughest stains on my pots, pans like grease and food that seems to be stuck on them. and our coffee pot that had brown that used to be tough cleaning off. I know that this is not for cleaning off your kitchen floors but it works getting the toughest stains that are difficult to get off . Just don't use these on you top of your stove and everything you don't want scratched up, etc. Although please do not use these on your expensive cookware you don't want scratched up. Therefore purchase a different product that will clean well without messing your kitchenware up.

Compared to other sponges in the low price range, these sponges really are a great value. Generally speaking, they are not made to last for a very long time, and might have to be tossed after completing very grimy, or wear-inducing tasks. The Walmart brand does very well in the workhorse range of cleaning and economy, too.
