🌍 100% BIODEGRADABLE DISHWASHING SPONGES: eplanita’s natural dishwashing sponges are made from pure loofah plants, which means they are completely biodegradable and . Clean your dishes and be “zero waste” to the planet.
✅ ECONOMICAL & SPACE SAVING: Each of our eco friendly kitchen sponges will last you between 4 – 6 weeks, so with our pack of 6 you could get up to 9 months of supply. eplanita’s kitchen scourer sponges will arrive to you compressed and thin but when soaked in water they will expand and get a sponge like shape.
✳️ CLEAN YOUR ENTIRE KITCHEN: The loofah plant fibres have a perfect scrubbing quality. That’s why our eco sponges are soft enough not to scratch your dishes, cookware or coutertops and tough enough to remove all dirt and grease.
💚 SAFER THAN SYNTHETIC ONES: eplanita’s natural sponges are plant based therefore they don’t leave any microplastic residue like some other sponges.
💚 PRACTICAL: Our eco sponges foam well so you can use less washing up liquid or soap and become a bit more “greener”.

Biodegradable
Been using these for a long time. Each sponge lasts a very long time for me. When it’s done I throw it in my compost bin. No plastic.

Well made.
Edges are sewn so it keeps a nice edge when wet. Like it’s compact size and cotton string to hang dry. Trying to avoid throw away plastic so nice that this can be composted.

Good natural alternative
I was not sure at first if I loved these sponges, but as I have used them, they have grown on me.Positives: Very well made, sized, and handy. Especially good for plates and pans. They do not ever seem to smell bad like regular sponges, probably because they dry so quickly. They suds up nicely with soap once softened. You receive enough in the order so you can throw dirty ones in the washer and dryer.Negatives: Sometimes they do not completely clean in the washer as food can get stuck in the fibers. Has not been a big problem as I make sure to rinse them a bit better first. Also, they can be too stiff for cleaning glasses and cups easily. But once they soften up in the dish water, they work fine there too. I suspect they will last a very long time. I grew loofah about 15 years ago and made my own scrubbers. I still have one.

Non scratch and natural sponge
These kitchen sponges really surprised since they looked really thing when they arrived but they soaked up the detergent and the water and got a thicker looked. Also I used it for the sink and did not scratch it at all! It’s convenient as well that has a hanger side as you see on the second picture. Yes, I do recommend it if you are looking a more organic option!

Way too small for my kitchen needs
Product is much too small to be of any use in my kitchen. I should have looked at the measurements before buying. My fault

Love these eco friendly sponges!
After trying the sample they generously include in their (also fabulous) bamboo/natural bristle veggie scrubber (which I also use for dishes) I fell in love with this sponge. The loofah is softened, not hard like the whole loofahs one usually sees, making it easy to use. It’s scrubby enough to get most caked-on gook but safe for nonstick, plastic, and ceramic surfaces. It’s very absorbent, even better than most plastic/based sponges as mine didn’t leave any droplets behind, so you can use it for spills and wiping up counters, too. Haven’t had it long enough to comment on durability or smells. Even so, I think it’s a great value for an effective all around sponge that won’t add to the plastic crisis.

Earth friendly
Love these luffa gourd ‘sponges’. Two pieces of loofah have been stitched together to create a thicker sponge. It also has a cotton rope to hang for drying (though I cut it off as I don’t like it). I use mine primarily in the kitchen, but these can be used in the bath as well. Sponges are generally germ breeding grounds due to the moisture retention in synthetic sponges, but the natural sponges tend to dry faster. I also like that around 2-3 weeks, the sponges begin to wear down and I know it’s time to get a new one. It can easily be composted if that’s your thing or disposed of in the trash as it is totally biodegradable. I’ve used them in the base of flowerpots to keep soil from escaping the drain holes.

Too small and too thin
I expected them to be a little larger and a little thicker, so they are not manufactured to serve the intended purpose. I’m returning them.

Mi trovo benissimo con queste spugne, durano anche parecchio! Le uso per lavare i piatti, le ciotole e le lettiere di cani e gatti. Considerando che ne uso quindi 3 per volta, le ho finite proprio questa settimana e le ricomprerò sicuramente, mi sono durate 2 mesi, quindi una media di una spugna al mese (dico una media perchè quella delle lettiere dei gatti si consuma più lentamente, i miei gatti sono in giardino la maggior parte del tempo, la sabbietta la usano poco quindi la cambio totalmente e disinfetto le lettiere una volta la settimana). Ovviamente dipende poi dall’uso e dalla frequenza di utilizzo. In effetti possono essere anche utilizzate per la pulizia della casa, proprio come le spugne classiche.

I’m very happy with these. Love that they don’t break up into microplastics and that they have enough scrubbing power to get things clean. The loop to hang them up to dry is a nifty addition.
