Seep Avis 94

Sadly the composition of the item has clearly changed as the recent pack we received were nowhere near as good as the pack we bought last. These literally fell apart within a couple of weeks. I would not buy again. Shame! They used to be good but feel far cheaper and less quality now.

Here for the money - avoid!

I have placed an order, which by mistake had an old address.
Within 1 minute of placing the order, I contacted SEEP asking to please change the address.

I got no response for the whole day.

I contacted them again at the end of day - no response still.

The day after, I finally get a reply saying it's too late, and that my only option is to ask the person (that I don't know) living at the old address (which is 100s of kilometers away) to reject the parcel - thank you so much.

I wonder how much you are helping the environment shipping things that are not needed to a wrong address, and not putting any effort whatsoever in trying to be conscious.

Further to my previous review of Seep... after contacting the company, they quickly sent a replacement batch of sponges. These have fared much better. I've had 2 weeks use out of a washing-up sponge and still some life left in it!

I stupidly did not know you could order less than the 12 pack of sponge/scourer by going to Amazon. I debated a long time investing in a years supply.
After the first use it started to disintegrate, how could you put that in a washing machine!
After a few more uses the scourer side has stained so badly it is going black. At £25 this was an expensive mistake while I was just trying to do my bit for the planet.

I ordered a four pack of the sponge scourers via Amazon and after a week the first one started to disintegrate! I had bought them on the basis they would last a while and could go in the washing machine to be cleaned, as advertised on their Facebook and website. Too late to get a refund via Amazon (I didn’t open the pack for a few weeks) and the company are not being very responsive. They offered replacement but I said no as the product is not fit for purpose, and they said they can’t refund. Not impressed especially at the price charged.

I've bought seep sponges several times in the past and been really happy with them. In may I bought a pack of 12 that's supposed to last a year. The first sponge started to fall apart after about a week, but I thought it was just a glitch. However, I've been lucky to get two weeks out of subsequent ones. Don't know if I got a bad batch, or the quality has just gone downhill. Really disappointed.

So far loving my washing up sponge. Bendy enough to get in corners but strong and sturdy enough to do the job. Will see how long it lasts and report back but so far v happy and glad to be doing my bit.

I've been making my household more ecological for years as new products become available, so trying Seep was a no-brainer for me.

I ordered the Eco Sponges with scourers and Eco pop up Sponges and received a £5 off my order. I can't wait for my old products scourers and sponges to wear out before using these.

I ordered on the Wednesday and they were with me by the Friday so you can't ask for better so I'd highly recommend Seep for all those who are ecologically and environmentally minded.

Efficiently delivered sponges and gloves. Good quality sponges and great product.

Ordered sponges 7 days ago and they still haven't been shipped yet

I quite naively didnt realise the spontex sponges were incredibly bad for the environment so switched to these.
The company is doing what others are supposed to be following suit with!

The good:
They are great and last a long time. (both sponges and the dish clothes)
Dish clothes are far superior to the blue jay clothes you get from the supermarket
Eco friendly
Dry quickly
Good size
non scratch for your nonstick pans

The not so good:
They're a 4/5 for cleaning off hard grime/burnt food and I unfortunately still have to go to my other non scratch sponge when Ive got some particularly stubborn burnt on food (even after soaking the pan).
They don't foam your liquid soap. Maybe its cause I'm in a hard water area but I find that when I use my spontex sponge I get a lot of lather from a small drop of liquid but don't with these.
They're incredibly "sticky" when you try to wrap them round an edge or lip of a plate or bowl, or a wooden spoon. What I mean by this is when you want to do a few scrubs of a handle, you grab the handle with the sponge in your hand and then clasp your hand round the object and move the sponge up and down, and it's this motion which is particularly resistant compared to the spontex sponges.

Just a couple of things Ive noticed which I'd like to share.
