Has anyone had any experience with these copper pot scrubbers on page 12 in the scourers and sponges section http://www.edco.net.au/scourers My local shop in Nowra can get me some in so I might give them a go in my packed section. I bought a packet of the stainless steel ones, but just might go copper. It states on the page they are pure copper and I have sent an email asking them to confirm.

Really nice find!

Be good to get that confirmation...please let us know

cheers

If you buy some leave them in water overnight to make sure they don't rust :handgestures-thumbupleft:

How much are they a pop?

Cheers

I got my chore boy scrubbers in a large box on eBay.
Following that I bought a heap of copper from Amphora, I haven't had to touch the Amphora stuff yet as I'm barely through the large box of chore boy scrubbers.

if they are reasonable- buy buy buy

Hi Peter,




The reply I got from EDCO (within a day which is pretty good)

"Thanks for your inquiry. Our copper scourers are 100% copper, with no coating. Some suppliers use a steel or stainless steel and coat with copper to avoid the high cost of the copper. Our cataloge actually references that there isn’t a foam filler which again, some suppliers use to bulk the product and reduce the copper content and therefore the price.


Instead, we have a banding which is only there to keep the product in its intended shape.

Trust this assists".

PS I dont know what my local person will sell them for (Jennings McDonald South Nowra) but I can see then online for $3.50 each not sure if cheeper if you buy 6 or more if you buy bulk. But the structured copper at 5SD is not very expensive either @ $27 for a 500 g wad.
Best regards,

Hmm I think I can kill this post. $3.60 + for 60 g compared to $27.50 for 500 g of structured copper mesh. :( sorry for a time waste)

that works out to $30 ...only $2.50 difference and if there is freight in the equation ,you still might be on to a cost comparable product

No one has tested to see if they are really 100% copper yet ;-)

I'm +1 for the amoropha structured copper. It's very easy to wind to pack your column and very good quality. Been using it for years

I prefer the stuff here :D

But of course I'm biased :teasing-neener:

We'll will agree, I was more referring to the type of mesh. :handgestures-thumbupleft:

yeh ok, so what's the difference between theirs and mine in structure ?

Am I missing something :think:

Absolutely nothing they look identical.

I hadn't perused your website until tonight, I just saw the earlier post referring to Amorpha

all good, I kinda got that feeling seeing you only been here a couple of days :handgestures-thumbupleft:
