Is there a difference between brands for these sponges? Is one better than the other? The first one I saw was by pureSOL.

I am not sure about others but I could notice the differences. I purchased both sponges since I couldn't decide at that time. Size wise, this sponge is more practical and easier for me to hold because it is much bigger than puresol. Color wise, puresol sponge is very black and when I first soaked it, the water turned black, which made me believe some kind of chemical coloring must have been added. Then I looked at the box and it says that puresol brand is made in China. Since there are many questionable Chinese products in the market, I decided I didn't want to use it on my skin. So far I have used this my konjac brand for the past few months and my skin has never looked better. Love it! I am not sure about others but I could notice the differences.

Supposedly there are, if you read the different brands they rave about different ways it helps your skin. Honestly they all seem to work the same on my skin, only difference is this company doesn't promise any miracles like the others but is honest about it being a sponge!

Absolutely! Size, shape, thickness, odor.......THIS one does not have any odor. Another I tried is by LuxxHealth, and it has a burnt hair odor to me. It lasts 2-3 days on my skin!! I loved the thickness, but hated the odor! Every time my hands or face got wet, it reactivated the odor, so awful! THIS one is thinner, but it doesn't have the odor. So, this one wins out for me.

I've read there are differences between them, but I've only tried this brand based upon such outstanding reviews!!! I'll continue to buy from this company!!

Yes I purchased both. I found this one to be "friendlier" on stainless steel which you did not want to see any scratches on, when using. This one appears to have a much finer powder to it. Use it with the sponges which are non scratch and you'll have new looking pans. I use it about once a week to make sure there is no oil build up on the sides. Works like a charm in eliminating burnt on oil as well.

Yes. It truly is the best cleaning sponge I've ever used or even seen on the market.

Both are great, however, the black filters will filter out a little more contaminants than the ceramic. I currently have the ceramic supersterasyl and think they are great. I will be purchasing the black filters very soon, and storing the ceramic in case of emergency. If you have the money, may I suggest buying four black filters. If money is an issue (as it was when I first bought the Berkey) stay with the ceramic (4). You will not be disappointed. Here is a great review comparing the two... http://www.911water.com/Compare-Black-Berkey-and-Super-Sterasyl-Filter-s/69.htm

It really depends on how much you use it, but you can get a "reinker". You add some of the reinking fluid to the sponge and it will be good as new if the sponge is still in good shape. Just search for Perfect Medium reinker. You can find it here on Amazon. Hope this helps!

A gel pack sounds better than a sponge by holding moisture longer, but I haven't had any problems with drips...other than some of my relatives, lol. If you can make the replacement without breaking the plastic, I'd say Go For IT! Let me know if it works for you, I might give it a try out in four of my units.

More or less Ive been using the same sponge for the last half year with no problems. The 2nd sponge I use on my heavy days to switch out. Not sure of the end life, i guess until it's not as absorbant. My sponges still look new to me.

The one I received from pet solutions was the pro series. The sponge was much coarser than the original series.

They say if you take good care of the sponge, it should last for 3mns. I've used it w/out cleanser and it is fine- I've also used it with cleanser. Depends on the amount of make-up I have on. Regardless- I really like it.

No, not the scrubby ones. They have a sponge that is, but it's just a regular sponge, without a scrubby side.

Absolutely! 100% This is the best sponge I ever had. Silly to say but so true.

Not real familiar with Perform, but on researching looks like they are very similar. I like Biofreeze because it works well and once absorbed is virtually greaseless and works quite well

When I had a dishwasher, I tossed these in on a regular basis, and was never disappointed with these sponges. Can I ask what you are cleaning ChelseaH?

Ricky, this the best sponge out there today. When you are wiping down a countertop there is virtually no water (liquids) left behind. It is virtually dry to the touch. Love that it doesn't fall apart with age like the other sponges on the market. My sponge has several war wounds from my knives and there is absolutely no shredding or signs of falling apart thus far. To me, it actually is getting better the more I use it.

I could'nt say. I dont have the money to try the different types. I found one that works great, so I keep on buying it because it always works. I can say that did try cheaper soap that was not a low-sudds soap. That cheaper soap was a mess and had to throw it out. With that said i would try a cheaper soap it someone told me it works just as good. But like most of you i have have more important things to do than spend any more time on finding a good carpet soap. I found one and move on.

They are simple soft sponges that will need replacing occasionally because of their make-up. There are no extra scratch pads or anything like that attached to these, as some of the scrubbers ones are. I bought lots of them because just plain sponges are hard to find.
