Proper sponges, as used by professionals.

Great price, great value, brilliant quality!

I am re grouting tiled floors in my house, i needed some sponges to help clean up the tiles post putting new grout in. I have a Halfords 4ft Long Car Sponge but wanted something a little more specialist and these are a great price with good reviews so i picked two up for the first floor on the list.* These are compact sponges, they fit in the palm of my hand fairly easily, i would say probably a little bigger than a standard scouring pad. I was expecting something bigger, though am unsure as the dimensions are listed!* The texture is more porous and open than a normal wash or car sponge, it has a different feel and appearance to it. I read some reviews that mentioned the quality being less than expected but i would say bear in mind structurally they are different, they are more likely to tear if you start really applying pressure or running them over rough stone or concrete.* The level of absorbancy and control in picking up excess material, in this case excess grout, i found to be brilliant. I know if i had used the Halfords Jumbo sponge i would have been removing all of the grout not just the excess on the surface of the tiles.* I bought two as i felt i would either rip one or wear one out on the first floor i tiled, the first one easily managed the 5sq m and could have done some more. Am sure it would fare just as well with wallpaper and paint.Overall i would recommend these sponges, be aware they are slightly smaller than a typical household sponge but that size allows you to do a precise job, theres not much point in spending hours painting, papering and grouting to then wipe it all away/smudge it/groove it with a massive sponge.Excellent value, does a great job, very good additional to any DIY or Decorating Job.Five Stars.

Had to use these when cleaning a new Property, well I didn't but decorator did! Great to really get dirty walls clean along with Sugarsoap. Great value and seem to last long time. Quite large size as well. Just remember to use thick protective gloves when doing heavy duty cleaning.

Great for washing the car, holds many times it's own weight in water so can wash most of a panel with one dip in the bucket. Also very good for drying as it will pick up most of the water from the surface.Good value when bought on offer, much less than the same at Halfords.Quick and free delivery to my local pick up point garage next door. Great all round.

The sponge is the size of a small shower sponge. Was expecting a much bigger sponge.

Thick, absorbs and value

Bought this for wallpapering, but honestly didn't need anything this good. A cheaper one from the pound shop was all that was necessary.
