What's in a sponge? Here's your guide to Scrub Daddy sponges: Video

There is a Scrub Daddy for every mess. You just need the right one for the job.

The different colors of the sponges aren’t just for looks. The handheld smiley faces have different uses, plus the different colors can help you keep track of which one belongs in the kitchen and which one stays in the bathroom.  They do offer a colorless, dye-free option if you prefer.

There is no one Scrub Daddy sponge to rule them all, so use this as your guide to some of the most useful branches on the Scrub Daddy family tree. 

Whichever family member you reach for, they're all odor-resistant and top-rack dishwasher safe.

Watch this video to learn more about the different types of Scrub Daddy sponges. 

Scrub Daddy

The Scrub Daddy is the original yellow smiley sponge. It changes texture depending on the water temperature, staying firm in cold water and softening in warm water. This versatility allows it to tackle both tough scrubbing needs and gentle cleans. 

The smile isn’t just for looks, either. The eyes hold utensils in place and the mouth cleans both sides of spoons at the same time. 

The classic Scrub Daddy works great on dishes, stovetops and dried-on messes.

Scrub Mommy

A Scrub Mommy is pink on one side, yellow on the other. The dual-sided sponge gives you the scrubbing power of the Scrub Daddy and a softer side for wiping and absorbing. 

If you want one sponge that can handle almost everything, this is the easiest everyday choice.
