Is the texture like a hard bar soup? Or a sponge? Do you hang it up when not in use, or kept in a soap dish? Thanks!

It's like a bar of soap. I use a soap dish with a soap saver inside so that water doesn't make it all gooey.

It's a hard bar of soap that you place into a soap dish after use. I really enjoyed using it.

It is a hard bar soap (not a sponge). I recommend you use a bamboo soap holder as the charcoal materials will fall off after few uses. This soap does not have any smells, but it is very effective, at least for me. :)

The texture is like a hard, bar soap. It is kept in a soap dish. It lasts a very, very long time if kept dry vs. in a dish that is allowed to hold water.

We just fill small jars from the big block and use that after bathing & end of work day hands, feet, elbows, knees treatments. We tried heating it up one time to see if it made any difference texture wise and found it just about the same; there's a great video of a lady saying to heat it ssslllooowwllly.

I would assume its due to dishwasher soap. Im only saying that because I used a Mr. Clean sponge on mine and it dis-coloured it. Not pleased what it looks like, but am very happy how it cleans up..not hard to clean off sticking stuff. Sorry I don't know why you have to handwash it. God Bless

No it is not textured. I bought this to replace my pan which I had had for over 20 years. Good pan, not as good as my older one, but good replacement.

When I received it I immediately cut the soap into bar-sized pieces and wrapped them in saran wrap. I store it in a cool, dry place. I break off a chunk and rub it in my hands to create a rich lather, then apply it to my body/face. There are rough pieces in the soap, which is why I do it this way. I've also read that breaking off pieces and putting them in a used shampoo bottle or body wash bottle, and adding water to melt it makes a nice body wash.

I find it best to handwash it with mild soapy water. I wouldn't want the harsh dishwasher soap to rub off the details!

When I put it in something that's hot, not just warm, it gets slimy. I've never tried in hot liquid though just mashed potatoes and refried beans and it makes a slimy texture- not appealing.

Hi Barbara, That's is perfectly fine. We are improving and transitioning to a new packaging which comes in new dry form. Once you soak the sponge in the water, it will become very soft How to care for this new dry type is the same. Once you are done using the sponge, squeeze out all access water and hang it to dry in a dry area. Once every 2 weeks, we recommend sanitizing by either putting it in boiling water for 1-2 min or putting it in a bowl of water and microwave it for 1:30 min If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us at info@mykonjacsponge.com. Thank you.

The bowl is smooth at the bottom and the soap will slide around as you prepare to lather up. I prefer the bowl due to its dexterity I have dropped it and it didn't get any cracks.

No, it is softer. I roll it up to store. Love baking on it. I do need to increase baking time by about 1-2 minutes. Wash it in mild, soapy water and hang to dry or use lint free towel.

I clean it with a wet paper towel with a tiny bit of soap & then go over it again with a plain wet paper towel. Using a sponge would only deposit germs to it. I also bought the mineral oil to use on the surface. I do the mineral oil rub down on the cutting board once a month. I've had it for months now & it is still as gorgeous as when I first got it. & I use it every single day.

It feels like a knit fabric. You could hand wash it and it shouldn't be a problem. Good luck!

Nope, it's great! Now you will still have to clean it every now and then, but the dish is removable for easy cleaning...I mean you don't have to but I do cause just from the soap bar getting wet and a little soft from use, it will leave soap marks on the dish. But I'm OCD about my house being clean...lol! Hope my answer helped. :)

I just use very warm water and a tiny bit of mild dish soap on a soft sponge. The area where you place the food is very sturdy and can be scrubbed, if necessary. Then I let it air dry on my counter. It's a very easy clean up! I hope this helped :)

It is rather rough, but smooths over time with use. To keep it well seasoned, I put a film of oil on it after each use and store it on the lowest rack in my oven.

Myra, it is textured, wish it was smooth, but I think it will still clean up and be safer than the plastic cutting boards I have used in the past. Check and see if they have one with a smooth top before you buy. Vicky Hulrey

The texture is similar to any other tablet. I was worried about choking etc at such an age. I resorted to other products that come in the form of sachets like BC Bio-Pharm Natural Wellness Super Multi Dophilus which can be devolved in any liquid. Hope this is of help.
