    Best thing ever for cleaning the le creuset casserole dish with minimal elbow grease!

    Great for the roasting tin too - no more brillo pads required!

    I wet mine with water before use.

    Am I using a different magic sponge to the rest of you then? I didn't think it was all that good. Not bad at removing those black finger marks on doors, but it wasn't anywhere near as good as I expected at getting the black scuff marks off uPVC door, and I can't use it on non-shiny paintwork like to get marks off walls as it was taking the paint off!

    I first bought them in Canada under the name Mr Clean. They were a lot denser than the ones I got from the pound shop. I remember Lidl used to sell them too. Has anyone used them on stainless steel?
