My wife forwarded me a link to a Website page about cleaning and how to do it easier. It mentioned this product by name. I got curious. I looked it up on YouTube. After watching the videos I knew I had to try it. In this world of ridiculous claims on the Internet, anything that claims to be "magical" should be taken with more than a few pinches of salt, so no one could be blamed for being skeptical of the miraculous properties of this product. That said...
Whoa.
If you have any appliances that are tarnished, shoes that are grimy and blackened, walls that are scuffed, sinks, counters, etc that are grimy, greasy, and gross...your problems are OVER. I immediately tried it on scuff marks on a wall. Gone. I tried it on black marks on the fridge. Gone. I tried it on counter tops, the stove, the shower, the grimy rusted gross-looking toaster. If the dirt don't come off of something when you use this product, it would probably strip the surface to remove it. My toaster looks brand new! ALL of my kitchen appliances look YEARS newer. The kitchen and bathroom SPARKLE!!! But by far I was most impressed with the use of this product on hard floors in the kitchen, bathroom, and entryway. Dark mud spots and ground-in grime I thought would never come out MELTS away when you apply this product with a little water. Wow. Now the floors look almost brand-new! Believe it or not, this product works so well that it actually makes cleaning (dare I say it) FUN!!!!
Now there are a few warnings with this product. It's not a long-reusable product. It's basically (as others have pointed out) EXTREMELY fine sand paper. As such, it DISINTEGRATES as you use it, leaving a milky residue and particles behind. Simply wipe them away with a damp cleaning rag. Be careful about what you use this product on, as some surfaces WILL strip off when you clean them (ultra-fine sand-paper remember?). Don't scrub your own skin with the thing because it WILL scrape your top layer of skin off along with your hair. All that said, it's generally QUITE safe to use, and eliminates the need for harsh chemicals when cleaning just about anything (which is good for your health AND good for the environment). And finally, while this product is great for cleaning shoes, I'd wait until it's almost used up before cleaning shoes with it. It gets shoes clean amazingly well, but disintegrates like newspaper ash when rubbed against shoes. Better for your budget long-term if you disintegrate an almost-used-up magic eraser eh?
Well, there you have it. I'm replacing most of my cleaning products with this one. It's cheap (less than a dollar each if you buy in bulk), cleans AMAZINGLY well, and it's ridiculously easy and fun to use. Highly Recommended. It deserves MUCH higher praise than many deserving five star products.

It Really Works
I have been curious about these "magic eraser" sponges and decided to give them a try. I bought this 8-pack (I will refer to it as national brand), along with a 40-pack which I will refer to it as a private label, and a generic 100 pack. I have been using all of them for about a week around the house and am very happy about how they are working out. I see clearly why they are being called "erasers" when I use them to rub against the greasy buildups around the exhaust hood cover. I use them to wipe off the counter tops, the stainless steel oven doors, fridge doors, stairway banisters, door frames, bathroom walls. Once I accidentally rubbed the sponge against a rusty pipe and was surprised what it took off. No, the pipe did not return to its shinny state, but did made me want to run a broken sponge around hidden areas one last time before throwing them away.I tried using these to clean up the coffee stain buildups inside the coffee cup. It didn't work for me. But that's OK. I can still reach for the baking soda (and other cleaning tools for that matter).Likewise, among the 3 different brands of the magic erasers, I do not have to limit myself to use only one. You do get what you pay for, but to some extent prices do matter. The thicker (and more expensive) ones are great for the tougher jobs, but there are plenty jobs can be done easily with the thinner ones.The prices that I paid for each are shown in the pictures. Here are their dimensions (length x width x thickness):National Brand - 4-5/8" x 2-3/8" x 1-1/16"Private Label - 3-7/8" x 2-1/2: x 1-3/8"Generic - 3-7/8" x 2-3/8" x 3/4"
