I have their clay towel and it's great. I like these just a smidge better because they're easier to hold. I'd have the clay towel folded in fourths to reduce pressure points, but it was sometimes harder to control and keep folded without applying pressure. I like having one in the wash bucket so I can address some more stubborn contaminants during the wash. The mesh on the back works well and it's also good for removing certain contaminants.

Was torn on buying this or a perforated clay towel. Well, glad I bought this one. I'm sure a towel would be just as good but I do like the feel of the sponge. It really teaches you know to press too hard.
