Product Name: Original Scrub Daddy Sponge - Scratch Free Scrubber for Dishes and Home (3 CT)
Experience Level Needed? Novice
Features:
1. Great Versatile Sponge that’s tougher for scrubbing in cold water and softer scrubbing in warm/hot water for the kitchen and bathrooms.
2. Scratch free on dishes and most surfaces and Odor-resistant.
3. Flexible for odd shapes i.e. utensils and fixtures. Just utilize the eyes or mouth areas to scrub and wipe down anything that sponge would be normally too big.
Why do I recommend it?: Thanks to #cleantok, Scrub Daddy really provides a better alternative to everyday sponges that had a short life or were too soft/hard for kitchens and bathrooms. Now that I use it regularly, I can’t find anything that has the same utility.

Product Name: S&T INC. Soap Pump Dispenser and Sponge Holder, 13 Ounces, Silver 
Experience Level Needed? Novice
Features:
1. Innovative way to get soap and provide storage at the same time.
2. Press down on the sponge plate to dispense soap.
3. Holds up to 13 fl oz of dish soap
Why do I recommend it?: I wanted to find a solution to organize the sponge and dish soap at the same time. This product provides both and does it well and efficiently. It doesn’t rust due to the use of plastics and with any soap dispensing product it just need minimal maintenance if soap gets on the outside.

Area for Improvement: The cosmetics could be a little nicer as competitors have popped up and look a little more polished and sleek.
Price Range: $10-13 (ea)
