 MAGIC is right--get that black stuff off your walls July 15, 2006

I picked up this cleaning product at our local dollar store. The clerk picked it up during check-out and she gave it a big thumbs-up. "These really, REALLY work." she volunteered. With that enthusiastic recommendation, I took home the Magic Eraser with the idea that I was finally going to get all those smudges off my walls.
What is it?
The sponge itself is a white block, very light-weight. It is fine-grained, reminiscent of a marshmallow. It contains a cleaner, which you detect as a light dust when the sponge is in its dry form. The sponge is about the size of a regular kitchen sponge.
How do you use it?
You simply take the sponge out of the package, wet it under the faucet then squeeze out the excess moisture. Now the sponge is ready to use. You rub it on those black marks on the walls (assuming your paint is washable--some paint like flat or whitewash is not washable.) You can rub it on your baseboards, on your stair railings, chair rails, anywhere you get those annoying black marks and finger smudges.
How well does this work?
The cashier at the dollar store was right! These ARE amazing. Black nasty marks on the wall along the stairs went in a few swipes. The smudges on the enamel rails and baseboards disappeared with a bit of scrubbing. As you use the sponge, it wears out--literally rubbing away into nothingness. When it's gone, it's gone. Go buy another one. I've had this one for months and it's still going strong. If you have kids, it will probably not last so long. But..who cares? This is a lot better than repainting the wall!
I also tried it on carpet--it worked ok, but I prefer carpet cleaner for spot cleaning. It was a champ in the shower stall (the fiberglass floor came up really clean!) Excellent for linoleum or vinyl flooring. Takes off those shoe marks.
Where shouldn't I use it?
The instructions tell you not to use it on glossy or polished surfaces.
Downsides
The more you use it (and you WILL) the faster it disintegrates. If you have kids or are a diligent cleaner, it won't last long. You will really see it go down fast if you do a lot of walls.
Also, some reports that paint can become discolored or lighter if you scrub on it, so test this in an area where it doesn't show; your paint may react.
Summary
If you want to remove smudges from your walls and baseboards, cabinets and other painted surfaces, this product is a must-have. It really earns the name Magic Eraser because that is what it does.
Removes Permanant marker! July 8, 2006

For anyone on the fence about these, jump over to my side ;) My (then) 2 year old had gotten a hold of my husband's permanent black marker.
We just bought a brand new refrigerator. I turned my back for a few moments, and when I looked back, she had scribbled *all over* my new fridge.
I tried bleach, soap, scrubby sponges... nothing worked. My first new appliance was ruined!
On a whim I bought this. (Couldn't hurt, right?)
It got it off immediately! (I had to press a little bit to get it out of the grooves.) I was so excited, I started running around my house trying to find things to scrub...
I know that it removes shoe scuffs with ease, markers or crayons from walls, and a multitude of other "sins" your children may commit against your home.

I used this to get marks off my washer and dryer and then went on to clean the rest of the house! This little "sponge" is awesome, and it is just like a sponge; it's not abrasive. The only problem I see with it (and all cleaning products) is that you actually have to use it for it to work; lol.
One of my favorite house cleaning products May 16, 2007

I bought these when we were moving. There were some many different things that needed cleaning, espcially after living in a home for years with small kids.
I was surprised it took off pens marks, dirt, crayon, just about everything I tried it , it worked on.
The best parts were the kids loved these. they were so happy to help.
I take one magic eraser and cut it in 2 and give n half to each kid. It works great in our new home taking fingerprints off of the appliances and doors.
I love this product because it makes cleaning up little surprise artwork or dirt kids bring in the house.
It is true! It removes permanent marker! October 15, 2006

I was surfing the products on Amazon's site and ran across the write up by A.Bauman regarding the permanent marker incident on her refrigerator. This week, my son had taken a permanent marker that bled through the paper on to our Ethan Allen coffee table. I had previously bought this item at the store and had remnants of the last one under the sink. I ran downstairs and used the pad on the coffee table and the permanent marker spots came off. It worked! AMAZING!
