I always buy lemon-scented SOS pads.

I also always cut the pads in half because it's rare that an entire pad is needed at one time. Always make sure you put a used pad on something that will hold it above any water, and it won't rust.

SOS used to sell lemon-scented small pads, and I would buy those whenever I saw them. They discontinued those. Now they sell what they call a "single use small pad," but they're not lemon scented. I'll just continue to buy the regular size and cut them in half.

I prefer to use Euro Scrubbies. One lasts a very long time (a year or more).

I buy whatever is cheaper, and keep it in the freezer between uses to prevent rust.

I've never tried a Brillo pad. I do use SOS sometimes, like Lindsey, I cut them in half.

I buy whatever is cheaper also. The only thing I regularly use them on is baked on food on the baking sheets.

Stainless steel pads and soap on metal. I mostly cook in the flat bottom Corning Ware that came with our first glass cooktop years ago. I use Bon Ami and a damp paper towel to clean these surfaces.

SOS. I don't like Brillo.

I use a Scrub Daddy.

Brillo. I don't like sos. Terilyn, so you like the scrub daddy? Works well?

Usually I use the scotch brite pads but occasionally use SOS or brillo pads.. whichever is cheaper when i buy them.

I don't like Brillo. I use an SOS type pad that is a generic that I buy at Walmart for a dollar for a box of 10. They are very comparable to SOS and you can't beat the price. I use them to clean pots and pans and the outside of my electric skillets.

We use plastic scrubbers only.

For stainless or any non-anodized metals I use SOS. I also use SOS to clean my range parts from the porcelain coated drip pans to the stainless parts of it. It's open burner so everything comes apart. For cakes pans like Nordicware or aluminum bake ware which is usually clear anodized I use a Dobie or similar product. Corningware just gets a bit of Ajax for the occasional stubborn cooked on food or stain.

Scrub daddy is amazing! We have one for every room, use it on glass cook top, shower tile, stainless sinks, porcelain sinks, glass, granite, toilet bowls, faucets, etc. It's soft in hot water, course in cold water. They now offer a scour daddy for tough pot n pan jobs. Scrub Daddy squeezes clean and never stinks.

I am currently using a Scrub Mommy, which is pink.

I use scotch brite too.

Just ordered Scrub Daddy

watchme -- Ajax is an abrasive; it scratches. Bon Ami is non-abrasive; I use it on all my porcelain surfaces: Sinks, tubs, etc.

Chisue - It's all in the marketing. Ajax is now gentler than the stuff we grew up with. It's "scratch free". Actually the abrasiveness is based on how wet something is. Like the way you can can wet sandpaper to defog plastic.

Bon Ami may have the edge on environmental issues since it doesn't have bleach in it but I use so little I don't worry about it. A can of Ajax lasts a really long time here.

I use stainless steel scrubbers and dish soap. I rarely used SOS or Brillo.

Neither. I have a scrub brush and if it doesn’t remove what is stuck with a little soap, it gets to soak for a few minutes in hot water.

Euro scrub cloth for me. I have yet to find something it does not clean with just water and never scratches and is safe for all surfaces.

I mostly use plastic pad scrubbers and only rarely use SOS. I also often sprinkle a little baking soda on glass, Corningware and other surfaces that need a more gentle scouring.

I didn't know there was a Scrub Mommy. I'm going to get a few so my Scrub Daddy's have partners.

We use Bon-Ami on the cooktop, comet with bleach in toilets (it's safe, effective and dirt cheap) Ajax and Scrub Daddy to clean grout lines, because it's stronger than dirt.

I don't think I've ever seen a brillo pad. I've only ever used SOS pads. I have a huge honking box of them from Costco. My pots and pans still look brand new because of those babies. :)

Neither. Very rarely have to scrub anything. When I do, I use a sponge with the green scrubby thing on one side, I don't remember what they're called, & I'm too lazy to go look right now. A very dear friend who was fighting a rare and terminal form of cancer at the time, once told me that life is too short to spend it scrubbing pots and pans, just let them soak and they will come clean. I've followed that advice ever since. She was right, a good soak does the trick. If something is really bad, sprinkle some baking soda on, dampen it and let it set for awhile. Works like magic.

Rusty

I use the 3M scrubbing sponges with a yellow sponge on one side and the green scrubber on the other. Only 3M, the copy cat brands do not work as well.

I belong to a FB cleaning group. People highly recommend Scrub Daddy’s. I found 2 new ones at a yard sale this summer but haven’t tried them. I guess I’m saving them for the right task. People said they don’t last long. Has anyone ever used a pumice??? They are less than $2 at Walmart in the cleaning aisle. Works great on Pyrex ( I never thought the handles on the clear ones would look new again) and the bottom of pans. No more scrubbing. Another product I really like is a ‘kitchen stone’ made from recycled glass. It works like a pumice would but is for stove tops. Since it’s made of glass it won’t scratch. I got it on Amazon. I dip it on my dishwater and rub it on the ceramic glass top stove. Follow up with Windex and it’s done. I never liked the Cerama-Bryte.

Pumice is useful on corning ware and other glass cookware. Sometimes I over bake the beans and wife puts me on the pumice clean up squad.

I use a Dobie pad for pots and pans. Sometimes with Bon Ami.

I mostly use Mr. Clean erasers. I've come to think that if Mr. Clean won't do the job nothing will.

Nuts to it all. If there is so much stuff in the pan that needs some serious scrubbing, toss the pan and buy new! Problem solved.

SoS, and I cut mine into four pieces, unless it is a really big project I should have to work on. Use Mr. Clean for somethings too.
