Follow to my question below: Has anyone found a product similar to this that has better quality foam that lasts longer?

This is my go-to favorite sponge! I buy in bulk because they are hard to find in the local stores. They get tossed into the dishwasher every evening to clean and replaced every two weeks. I haven't fpound any other I like as much.

I've tried one other similar style and went back to this one. True, the foam part does not last a very long time, but I still like this sponge. It rinses very clean so I don't need to run it through the dishwasher, that might help to make it last longer. I always buy a bunch, and it pays to shop around. Amazon has good deals but last order went to Target. (Luckily, before the hacking incident)

When I had a dishwasher, I tossed these in on a regular basis, and was never disappointed with these sponges. Can I ask what you are cleaning ChelseaH?

I just had the same problem! I had to slide a twist tie through the zipper to get it off but when I opened it the foam basically crumbled. Not sure why it's so pricey either...we bought the same one at Target for $20...

We have been sleeping on this gel foam pad for 3 years or more. I honestly haven't noticed that it has changed at all. I would say it will definitely last more than a year. &#128521; hope you enjoy it as much as we have&#128549;

At the Pelican website or just google for replacement foam. Do a search through Amazon and you should find it.

Nope...mine lasted about the same amount of time...ending up tossing it. Inferior product IMO.

I put a mattress pad on it. It will keep the foam clean longer. I suppose you wouldn't have to. But I do

Hmm maybe contact the company. I have had mine for some time now and they are still good and don't stick to anything. They might have shipped some that weren't good. Try to contact them because it says they don't stick or stain in which mine haven't yet and I've had ours for a while now. See if there is anyway u can contact the foam company and let them know your concern. Hope it helps!

Yes, I am thinking of getting better cushions. Possibly a more resilient foam that would fit into existing covers.

I've never actually owned a foam mattress before, so it's hard for me to say, but I would assume it's more like a classic type foam. Sorry I can't be more helpful, maybe someone else can shed more light on it.

There isn't a way to change it to come out as foam. FYI- I use it with Softsoap hand soap in bath and a dish/hand washing soap from Costco in kitchen. Both have been fine so far!

it gets very foamy, so I think it would be great and would last long. If you're looking for something that has a little texture or grit, this doesn't have it.

Hi. The picture is wrong. This the Goldwell Colorance Softcolor foam. Use in shower. Then rinse. Lasts about 2 weeks...thanks

Dense Foam But not sure if that will work for what you need. You may be able to find a better option.

In my experience the velcro backing tears off the foam fairly quickly, much faster than the pads show any wear. I sent CG a message on facebook asking if they had any advice on extending the life as I was disappointed at their relatively short lifespan, but have yet to hear back.

I would suggest asking the company directly. We have several (nine) which have held up very well. Our three dogs love them, and our older GSD really seems to appreciate the quality of the foam used. None have shown any signs of deterioration. They arrive odor free, and the covers wash well. These are the best dogs beds we've found over 25-30 years, bar none.

Janelle, I am sorry, but I have never used the ipedic 3" gel one, so I can't comment in terms of comparison. I will say that the foam is very dense and quite mushy. We have had it for about 8 months now, and it has held up well, although it could potentially tear if you don't treat it with a decent amount of care. We have been quite happy with it.

I tried a brush and it foams nicely at first, but the lather doesn't last (not like other shave creams). However, I think this is meant to be rubbed directly on the skin, and that's the way I've been using it. Awesome stuff.
