"Like most old city apartments, my place doesn't have a dishwasher. I spend almost every night doing the dishes, and over the years, I grew particular about my sponges and gloves. I often found myself throwing them out and purchasing new ones every few weeks because it seemed like the most sanitary option. Recently, I had turned to Amazon to buy another batch but was recommended these Hatsutec Magic Silicone Dishwashing Gloves ($15); I was immediately drawn to them.
I had heard a lot about silicone sponges and how they're much more hygienic than a traditional sponge that collects tons of bacteria. But I was completely sold on the concept that these gloves are a two-in-one product. I bought them within 30 seconds.
The day they arrived was probably the most excited I had ever been to cook and clean up. I was so pleasantly surprised by the results. I lathered the gloves in soap and started washing away. Getting my dishes squeaky clean was easier than ever, and honestly a little fun. The gloves feature slip-resistant grips, so wet items didn't slip away. They can withstand temperatures of -40 through 200 degrees Celsius, so using scorching hot water wasn't an issue. Plus, they even come with a handy hook, so you can hang them up to dry when you're done. I have a feeling these will last for a long time, and they were worth every penny." — Krista Jones, assistant editor, Shop
