Has anyone else tried these things?? They are just AMAZING! I've got white countertops which tend to stain very easily. I've tried soaking the stain w/ OxiMagic as well as just 409 & nothing gets it off. Except for these Magic Erasers! I love them!!

If you do get them, they will take crayon off of the wall, great for cleaning your fridge handles, doors, trim, etc. However, if you use them on your wall for crayon it'll dull the paint. That's the only downside to this product.

But other than that, I just love them! They are amazing!

Yep, love 'em! The only problem I've found is that if you use them on your floors, be prepared to do the whole floor! I used them on some scuff marks and it showed how dirty the floor really was! I've now got some nice white spots because I haven't gone over the rest of the floor with them. About 60% of the house is tile, so I'm not looking forward to that job! :o

ok ..I must be the only one with a negative experience. I loved how well it cleaned up my off white/beige walls (painted in Jan 2003) that were covered with toy marks from ds banging his toys on the wall. Well it cleaned great but left a nasty residue or oily type stain on the walls. I am very disappointed. I mean to call the company and see what they say. It is a good quality and new paint job so I am not sure why this is. You can reallu only see the stains if you are looking at the walls sidewise..looking straight on you can't see them..whichis why when I tested them I never saw the spot. Didn't occur to me to stand sideways and look at the wall..hehehehe.

Ditto Tracey - I used them on the kitchen floor, and now have clean patches. Great for getting off black scuff marks. I probably wouldn't use them on paint - the package says to test in an inconspicuous spot. But for floors and the fridge handle they are great.

Exactly HOW do these things work ? What is in them ? They just look like sponges.

I'm not sure what is in them but you wet it, wring it out & start scrubbing and 9 times out of 10 whatever you want gone just disapears. It's a beautiful thing!!! :D

Well, not everything you scrub. I tried it on my husband and he's still here. ;)

I have a coupon for them but can't seem to find them anywhere. I really want to try them out. I am glad to hear that they work well. Wish me luck in finding them soon.

calimom- not sure where you are in CA (I think you are near me), but Wal-mart, Target, and Safeway all have them here.

I like them, people like to walk in the kitchen with shoes and scuff the floor, marks came right off

Don't use them on glossy paint surfaces. The package has a warning about it right on the box. They do leave a residue on gloss paint - I don't mind because we're renting our apt so it's no big deal.

But they are awesome for other things.

Well, it doesn't get 8 year old hockey scuff marks out of linoleum, but it does clean off everything else I've tried!

Will they work on ink pen/markers? I got the crayon stains of the walls with wd40/dish soap and water, but DD scribbled all over the coffee table when she was younger and I cannot get those marks out.

I'm not impressed. My SIL got them for cleaning the walls after moving out of her house. They were a complete waste of time. I'd have to sit there and rub forever. IMO a little soft scrub on a a sponge lightly rubbed on the wall, was much faster. So, definately not worth the money, when I already buy something that can do a better job, in a lot less time.

I ordered my free sample over 2 months ago and still didn't get it.

I do like them though. I got to use one at my friends when I went up to help out and it really cleaned up/off the yucky stuff.
