I had originally bought a different dish wand, and I loved the concept. It had a brush instead of a sponge for the head, but the brush got gross fast. I also am so used to doing the dishes with a sponge that using a brush took some getting used to—and it was becoming completely impossible on things like utensils. In the end, I used the brush wand on larger pots and pans, but still used a regular sponge on my dishes and glassware. Any product that can alleviate the chore of scrubbing dishes will go down a treat with busy shoppers, which is why this soap dispensing dish wand from Scrub Daddy walked away with top spot in the household category. It represented a really “innovative and user-friendly” solution, said our judges, that was both easy to use and highly effective. They also loved the design of the easy-grip handle and the simple way to change the head, which used a hook and loop mechanism to reduce plastic waste.

It’s mostly a texture thing, but I feel like my hands stop being functional as soon as I put them on. With the dish wand, you don’t need them, because your hands aren't as involved in the actual dishwashing.

The Award winning Dish Daddy featured on Monday’s (13th) This Morning with Lynsey Crombie ‘Queen of Clean’. With an interchangeable sponge on the end, the Scrub Daddy Dish Wand is easy to keep clean and functional, and it’s very clear when the sponge needs to get swapped out.I often find that regular sponges get gross pretty fast. If you don't ring them out enough, they smell, and even then, they can take a long time to dry. With our previous dish wand, you couldn’t see when you needed to refill the soap because the handle wasn’t clear. I usually didn’t realize the soap needed replacing until I was already in the middle of a scrub—meaning my hands were all wet, so unscrewing the top was a pain.
