5.0 out of 5 stars They do their job, February 18, 2006

These pads do their job, yet you can do pretty much the same thing with any scouring pad...if you're washing scuffs & marks off the walls. They're good if you're removing tough grease & splatters from sauces & other liquid foods, which have dried onto the walls & cabinet doors.

The pads shrink quite fast, and aren't as "reusable" as I thought. 1 pad should be sufficient for at least an hour of cleaning...perhaps less. The pads start out like stiff, white sponges and as you use them, they shrink & turn the color of whatever has been cleaned.

As i didn't have the time to wait for the pads to arrive in the mail, i bought them from Home Depot instead. They come 4 in a box and are conveniently stored in the box til I need them. Here are a few features:

- Don't use pads on skin (may cause abrasions)
- Don't use with bleach
- Not recommended for use with cleansers (powder or cream)
- Rub gently, as the pad tears rather easily with pressure
- Pads are made in Germany
- Pads shrink to 1/4 their original size, perhaps more (depends on length of usage)

For the price I paid, the pads live up to their name and I trust Mr.Clean brand for all my cleaning products. The pads work just as well as SCOTCH-BRITE scouring pads...if not better. Try a box of Magic Eraser for yourself.

3.0 out of 5 stars Works well but doesn't hold up, August 29, 2007

By 

TxMom (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews

These sponges work wonderfully, cleaning marks I thought I could never get off the walls. However, they only last about 10 minutes apiece (I used the "original" version vs. the heavy duty), and they break apart into very small sponge fragments. This is a problem, since I have a toddler who still puts things in his mouth. This would also be a problem for people with pets.

4.0 out of 5 stars Be Very Careful!, February 16, 2009

This review is from: Mr. Clean Magic Eraser Disposable Pads, 4 Cleaning Pads per Box PGT43516 (Office Product)

The Magic Eraser should be reserved for scuffs and grease that nothing else will remove. The eraser leaves dull spots on semi-gloss painted surfaces, and walls painted with flat latex have slight sheen where I used the eraser. Maybe I used too much pressure. Use this very sparingly on painted surfaces. It works really well, however, on sticky, greasy kitchen appliance surfaces, and textured plastic surfaces.
