Compromised Quality
Ocelo has always been the gold standard in sponges for me--the sponge one could count on to absorb water well and stand up to heavy and repeated use. The composition of the product has obviously been changed. The package I recently bought has the same poor quality as cheaper sponges. Like the formerly inferior brands, Ocelo sponges, too, now push water around rather than absorbing it, and they have a cheap, plastic feel to them. Clearly they won't last long. Sad. Another good product sacrificed to higher profits. Where to turn now for a quality sponge? Clearly not Ocelo.

product change
My favorite sponge no longer. Why change a product when it's a hit? What have you changed that has caused so many complaints?. The last purchase I made was also inferior, it was noticable right out of the package. After only a weekend of doing dishes it was time to throw the sponge out when previously it would last a few weeks. One can only surmise that someone received a bonus by suggesting going cheap. Bad idea. I hope you can see by all the disappointed consumers that the change wasn't worth it. Bring back the product we were happy with.

Was really looking forward to this sponge
I am terribly disappointed, I had such high hopes for these sponges. It’s hard finding a sponge that will last weeks and resist odor. I have loved using Lysol sponges for this exact reason but they are hard to find in store so I was told great things about ocelo sponges and decided to give them a try. I bought a large pack and washed dishes that first night. The next morning the whole sink stunk so bad, it was the sponge. I couldn’t believe it, I was so disappointed. Every time I touch the sponge it leaves a horrible odor on my hand that is hard to take away even after sanitizing and washing the sponge. Horrible quality!

What happened???
I’ve been a loyal ocelo sponge buyer for as long as I can remember. They were sturdy and never developed an order like the generic sponges. The quality of ocelo was worth the cost. Notice that I’m speaking in the past tense? I am no longer satisfied with this brand. Something has changed? Although the package says “Resists Odors Guaranteed”, these “new” ones smell awful...even after having been run in the dishwasher. I might as well buy sponges at the dollar store now. Please bring back the former sponge.

Get filthy really quickly
I have been a staunch partisan of sponges in the "sponge v dishcloth" battle for years, and I always found Ocelo sponges to be the best that were out there. However, for the past year or so I have found that after about 2 weeks, the Ocelo sponges are now filthy looking. I don't even want to look at them, they get so unsightly so very quickly. They may be anti-microbial, but that agent has done something else to them. I will be switching to dish cloths.

OCELO sponges DON'T absorb water anymore!!!!
What has happened to the production of OCELO sponges now??? They DO NOT ABSORB WATER ANY MORE!!! I've used them my entire life - something has changed in the past 6 mths or so in the manufacturing of them. All they do is push the water around on my countertops! NO ABSORPTION WHATSOEVER!!! Sooo disappointed in the company! Had to go on-line to find different sponges to try now. Really can't believe they would sacrifice their good name in the cleaning industry for this junk now.

Good product gone bad
I have to agree with the more recent reviewers. I have been using 3M sponges for decades and these used to be sturdy, long lasting sponges. Now, they easily tear and fall apart within just a few uses. Apparently 3M has clearly changed something with this product, whether manufacturing process or component suppliers. The bottom line is that there used to be incentive to pay a little more for a superior product; now there is no reason not to simply go with whatever is cheapest.

Sponge breaks down and shreds.
i have used these sponges for many years but recently notice that there is a marked diifference in their quality. the current sponges shred after one or two uses. I find this very unsatisfactory as I have to deal with sponge particles in my sinks. What happened to the sponges? Did the resistance to bacterial odor treatment cause this?
