I am loving my eco-scrubbies, I thought they would cut down a bit on the use of the green wiry stuff but infact I have not used any. It's a win win for the planet. I've gone through one scrubbie since early November. I'd normally go through much more green, wiry, plastic leaching, planet poisoning stuff in that time! Thank You so much I would 100% recommend making the switch to Eco -Scrubbie's.
