Scrubbing pads – subject to 'Sechitah'(Squeezing)
Question
Can an Ashkenazi rely on Sano’s Shabbos scrubbing pads under the certification of Rav Machpud?
Answer
Shalom uVracha,
If you rely on that specific hechsher, then it would be OK to use. If not, you can slightly open the edge of the cover to check: if the filling is made of plastic sponge that does not absorb, it is permissible. But if it is made of dense fibers or an absorbent material, it is forbidden to use.
Following the guidance of our Rav, HaGaon HaRav Amrom Fried shlit”a, we do not comment on hechsherim on this site
