Reviews (3.2 out of 5 Grommets)
-
I purchased 4 of these (2 packages). I intended to use mine for dishes, but it is big and bulky so doesn't work well for that. The other three are stocking stuffers for Christmas. I haven't tried using it for anything other than cleaning off dishes and pots and pans, which doesn't work too well, but will try to find some other uses for it. It is well made, as is everything I've purchased from the Grommet, so although I'm not sold on the product for use in the kitchen, I am sure I will discover another use for it. Not totally disappointed!

...but I don't. I was hoping it would largely replace my kitchen sink - scrubby sponge for dishwashing, but it does not. It doesn't get into corners, and it's not flexible, can't get inside round bowls, for instance. Decent job on large flat surfaces, but the soap slides off, just not as effective. Will be keeping it in the laundry room for stain removal, fine for that. The idea is good, just needs to be thinner, more flexible, or something.

It's not flexible enough to wash assorted dishes. I'd assume it would be great for brushing animals or other such things.

Waste of money

my husband and I and those precious guests who help with the dishes have not had any luck using these sleeves. They certainly do not scrub out a pot or pan, not even scrambled eggs the grandson overcooked in an excellent skillet. Regret spending the money on these. If there's a refund available, contact me, please.

I see all of these raving reviews and I don't understand why. I thought these would be great and I am so disappointed. They feel awkward on my hand and do not bend so you can't curve them around the shape of a pan. Forget corners.. Frankly they just don't work.
At first I thought I was doing something wrong and tried everything I could think of. Then I tried again because hey, they are supposed to be great.
Take lose fur off my dog? nope. Actually scrub? nope. Work on curved skillet? nope.
I give up. Disappointed that I put the money into them.

BUMP IT OFF is made to fit on and in your hand, in no less than 6 different positions. BUMP IT OFF best cleans uneven, nonuniform and textured surfaces. I know my kids and pets are the masters of stain creation and thus my inspiration for the invention of BUMP IT OFF. It’s able to lift stains from many fabric surfaces without damaging the fibers in everything from delicate linens, to denim, to all types of carpets. -
I was disappointed to discover that these sleeves are as rigid as they are. It makes it difficult, if not impossible, to clean inside glasses and cups and even plates. Would love for them to be more flexible in the shower as well! Can't say I would recommend this product.

Try using your BUMP IT OFF on some of those hard to clean Kitchen challenges: holes in strainers, grooves in grill pans and tines in forks. As for your Beauty uses, try giving your make-up brushes a good deep cleaning. -
These just don't have the versatility I was looking for. Too stiff to clean anything except large flat surfaces without corners & uncomfortable to use on my body in the shower.

BUMP IT OFF shines when used on irregular surfaces, cleaning grout between tiles, removing food particles from colanders, lifting deep stains from fabrics without damaging fibers or how about scrubbing your woven patio furniture before putting it away for the winter. -
Perhaps it's user error, but I couldn't make these work for me at all. Awkward size, hard to apply any significant amount of pressure when cleaning dishes that aren't flat and large. Even then. Just not as advertised for me at all. Even the cats didn't like it.
Saw someone said they used it as a vegetable cleaner. Maybe I'll try that with the remaining one. I cut up the first one into smaller pieces thinking that perhaps it would work better for me. Quite disappointed.

BUMP IT OFF can be placed on your hand or held in your hand, in many different ways, depending on what you are cleaning. As we know some cats are finicky, my cat Noel (gray cat in the photo) loves the orange BUMP IT OFF so much, I have to hide it. Every time she sees the orange BUMP IT OFF she comes running… Kitty Spa Day! After grooming her, my big chore is to clean up her fur from my sofa and clothes. Happy Kitty – Happy Mommy! You might also want to give BUMP IT OFF a try on your laundry and carpet stains, it’s great at lifting out spots without disrupting the fibers of the fabrics. -
Used this for greasy pots and pans and will had to get out my scrubber to finish the job.

BUMP IT OFF works best on greasy surfaces when your pots are still warm (but not too hot to burn). Since BUMP IT OFF is 100% silicone it will not melt at cleaning temperatures. Don’t procrastinate get those greasy pots cleaned as soon as you finish cooking.
