Fun in the kitchen
Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2022

The set of four sponges is really cute. They are functional. The back side of the sponge is the softer side and the front with the image of the bird is a little bit more coarse. I assume that that is for more scrubbing power but maybe it's just from the ink they used on the sponge.

I found that I have nowhere to put the suction cup. My sink has a textured finish to it so they don't stick there. Otherwise I would definitely have one at the side of the sink. I did buy a second set and give it to my sister for Christmas because we are both birders. She has hers attached to her window over her sink. We both love them although neither one of us has had them long enough to know how well they will hold up in the long run. Either way I think it's a fun thing to have in the kitchen.

Warning-suction cup won't work on composite sinks, but are super cute & work well on stainless steel
Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2025
Verified Purchase
These are super cute! I love how they 'sit' on the perch. I got these for my mom for Christmas, but she couldn't use them as she has a composite sink, and the suction cup won't stick to that. So, instead of returning them, I kept them myself. The sponges work well, are a good, standard sponge size, and have been able to stay in place on the perch even after extensive use.
Summary--these work well on stainless, but do not work on composite materials (if you want to use the suction perch), which is why I deducted one star.

Red Bird at my window.
Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2024

So precious on their perch and I like the softer side scrub. I though the bird was to cute to be used but I did. The soft side is so good to polish things and I ordered several sets to give as friends gifts. There are many tells about Cardinals coming to the window after a death. I had a precious death of a young woman in my life and she was a mighty good cook. Looking in my window I always seen a red bird to bring me compfort.

Cute but annoying

I love the aestetic of these and ultimately I'm happy with my purchase. However, the perch falls off the sink about once a week and it's kinda hard to get the bird sponge to stay on it, especially if it's wet, and when it gets a little older and less sturdy. You gotta place it at exactly the right balance. I have this in a corner of my sink to kind of nestle the bird into the perch.

These birds are too nice to wash dishes with (although they would probably work great). With the suction cup & the wooden dowel. I attached it to the backsplash behind my kitchen sink. The grand kids thought it was very cool, so I bought a 2nd set for them.

to be honest I brought these on special offer, and they are lovely, they add a splash of colour to my kitchen window, and when the season changes I swap to a different one. I'm not using them for washing up, they are to nice. I would like to find additional perches and then I would add them to other locations around the house
