    I’ve found this not only does a excellent job at cleaning my dishes but it also doesn’t become smelly after time like previous ones have. It’s fast drying between uses and I’ve even put it through the washing machine for a quick wash and it hasn’t damaged the sponge at all.

  • Loves these sponges, no scratches!

    I tried this sponge out on my pots and pans after dinner. I had tried my normal sponge scourer and when it just wasn’t doing the job I gave the oats sponge scourer a go and it was super easy. It got the baked on grease off the pans and left no scratches.

    I totally loved these sponges. They don’t fall apart after a use or two , like many other brands. These heavy Duty Sponges really clean pots and pans and bring them back to the shine of new. Great

  • Anti-bacterial sponge scours make washing up a Little Less stubborn

    Oates anti bacterial sponge scour are a great effective must have for every kitchen. The scouring pad on the back of the sponge makes cleaning that stubborn food off the pots and dishes a breeze without the damage of scratches. They are not so abrasive and scrubs gently but effectively. Also great for the kitchen benches, oven and bathroom. Makes the washing up and removing soap scum from bathrooms so much easier and shinier. Although my sponge scour pack of 3 did have one pad with manufacturing defect (some of green scour pad missing) but still didn’t effect the cleaning lol

  • A quality classic

    The yellow sponge and green scourer are a staple in most households and Ive had my fair share of them. These are great quality and last more than a few uses while retaining their shape and scouring ability. Fantastic for a wide range of jobs around the home and got my roasting dishes looking great again while minimal effort.
    Will be my go to sponge scourer from now on.

  • YES to Oates Anti-Bacterial Sponge Scourer

    The Oates Anti-Bacterial Sponge Scourer is heaven sent. It has anti-bacterial properties so it’s very safe to use on my bub’s plates, cups and utensils. The scourer side is quite tough on removing stubborn, dry grimes on my dishes and pans while the sponge side is very absorbent especially when I’m cleaning the kitchen sink, dining table, stove top.

  • Good, reliable clean brand and products

    Oates scourer sponges are thicker, clean well, and don’t look worn or disintegrate as readily as other brands. And not much more than the cheaper priced brands. A good versatile product that will reliably clean dirty dishes and pots and also for wiping down surfaces with the added benefit of bacterial resistance.

  • Must have

    I love how easy is to use. Sponge is soft and scrucher a little harder to bigger jobs. Makes dish washing easier and quicker. I am cutting them in half as they are to big for me and then they are more flexible and easy to use with cups or mugs. Highly recommend

  • Clean smelling when opened!

    I love these sponges. I have been using the for months and wont be going back. They have a clean, sterile smell to them when the pack is opened which is satisfying. They are also strong and last really well. I find a lot of scourers wear away quickly and start peeling and deteriorating in the water. These haven’t done that before thet have reached bin time!

  • All rounder

    Love this scourer sponge! Such a versatile all-rounder!. Once the grout brush has gone over it’s designated lines the scourer sponge comes in on the action and wipes away the dirt and grime swiftly. Any support patches of food and grease and it is quickly delt with by flipping the sponge over to use the soft scourer, perfect for the stainless steel sink tops also, no scratches left behind

    The Oates Heavy Duty Scour’n’sponge is great for getting rid of tough stains on most surfaces. Long lasting, antibacterial, and so easy to use. However I didn’t test on my saucepans and frypans incase the scour scratched them. I usually buy non-scratch scours for this job.

  • Lasts an amazingly long time

    I’ve never had sponges that have lasted as long as these Oates sponge scourers. We use them every day and they are still full, spongey and close to their original colour. Usually, they go flat, brown and smelly, but these are almost like new. I’m guessing a lot of that has to do with the anti-bacterial properties. Will buy again and would recommend to others.

  • Great Sponge Scour

    Its a good product – however, I am unable to use it for the kitchen as its not scratch proof.
    That’s the only downside. If Oates makes one that is scratch proof – Yippee!
    Used it for cleaning the bathrooms and yes, it a good product!

    The Oates Anti-Bacterial Sponge Scour is a really high quality cleaning product. I normally purchase homebrand scrourers due to price however this product really stands out from its cheaper counterparts. Does the job it’s designed for with ease and wsshes up well sfter use. It’s also flexible and squeezes down so you can clean smallee items not just large.

For lighter wines that still taste like the real deal, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened range is quickly becoming a go-to. These bottles bring all the flavour with noticeably less alcohol, which is why everyone’s falling in love with them.

Best SIPS’ Chapel Hill Enlightened Wines review team put the Rosé and Pinot Grigio through their paces, and the feedback was unanimous: both are fresh, light and perfect for summer sipping without the unwanted morning crogginess.

A rosé with summer written all over it

Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Rosé is bright, crisp and fruity, hitting all the right notes without tipping into the “too sweet” zone. It’s the kind of bottle you reach for at a casual barbecue or any get-together where you want something delicious but easygoing.

It’s exactly this balance of lightness and full flavour in an affordable bottle that has so many fans raving.

“Light, refreshing and honestly just feels like a little moment of peace in a glass. The flavour is this perfect mix of crisp + fruity without being too sweet — literally the kind of rosé you can sip while you finally sit down after a long day.”

Women trying Chapel Hill Enlightened Rosé.
A summer staple … on the lighter side

“Too many of these low alcohol wines just don’t taste enough like the real deal-but this is a sure fire exception. Beautifully refreshing, with a touch of sweetness that’s not overwhelming. A gorgeous colour too, which is a bonus- after all, we also drink either our eyes! Add into the mix a reasonable price point- this rose is a winner!”

“I love a nice glass of Rosé and the Chapel Hill Enlightened Rosé did not disappoint! It’s really light and refreshing and tastes like a really expensive wine. I love that this wine is really affordable, so I can enjoy a beautiful Rosé without breaking the bank more often. Definitely give this one a try!”

If your warm-weather wine rack needs an affordable new staple, this is it.

A Pinot Grigio you’ll be buying again (and again!)

For the white lovers, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Pinot Grigio is a solid everyday white that ticks all the boxes: crisp, clean, food-friendly and affordable.

Our taste-testers repeatedly praised how balanced and versatile it feels, whether chilled on its own or alongside simple meals and casual gatherings.

“We love a white to pair with our spring/summer lunches and especially our seafood. This option ticked all the boxes …”

A versatile sip you’ll keep reaching for

“I enjoyed the first sip to the last of this Pinot. Anything with pear and citrus is something I want to try and this lived up to that, but with a lighter alcohol content – which I appreciate! Enjoyed over dinner, it paired really nicely with the food I was eating. This wine is something I’d happily recommend to others.”

“The wine offered just the right balance of fruity flavours – fresh and vibrant, but never overpowering or too sharp. It paired beautifully with both our light lunches and dinner, making every meal feel a bit more special. I also appreciated how crisp and refreshing it tasted, perfect for unwinding and enjoying good company. Definitely a Pinot Grigio I’d reach for again.”

Your lower-alcohol go-to

The team rates Enlightened wines 4.34 out of 5 and recommends them for anyone on the hunt for flavour-forward wine with less alcohol. They’re bright, modern and made for the kind of moments where you’d love a glass, but still want to feel good afterwards.

Find Chapel Hill Enlightened at Dan Murphy’s right now for $17.99 each.

  • The warmer weather tends to make alcohol go to my head faster – I’m not a big drinker, but just for that reason I’d seriously consider a low alcohol wine. The Pinot Grigio particularly sound as if I might enjoy it. I might well buy a bottle or two for Christmas.

    Reply

  • Looks delicious, would be keen to try their wines based off the reviews. Love anything local and the light wine is just an extra win – low alcohol content would be fab for nights with friends where we all still have to drive home afterwards so would be buying for that type of event!

    Reply

  • Chapel Hill Wines do have quite a good reputation. I like the fact that it is low alcohol content. Personally, I like a very sweet wine but many would like these as they are not so sweet. I wish them well with sales and think it’s good they are doing something about lowering alcohol level.

    Reply

  • Thanks for sharing this review. It sounds that the taste is good, the price is good and the alcohol content is really low indeed. I do like the fact that they’re light. One of the things I don’t like when you’re drinking a couple of glasses that it fills you up and it affects your appetite

    Reply

  • I appreciate all the reviews and think this is an excellent way to get your brand out there and known.

    Reply

  • I like the sound of the Pinot Grigio and will look out for it next time I’m at the bottle shop.

    Reply

  • I just asked the forum for recommendations on zero alcohol, but this is an attractive option as well! I do enjoy a Rose, so will try this one after all the positive reviews. It’s a shame they don’t have a sparkling in their collection yet! Would have been prefect for all the celebrating at this time of year.

    Reply

  • I dislike rose, but the pinot grigio sounds like it might suit me. To be honest, the alcohol content doesn’t bother me all that much – I rarely drink more than a glass or two anyway – but it would probably be nice from a general health point of view to know I’m consuming less alcohol.

    Reply

  • This sounds like the perfect glass. I do love being able to have a few drinks and not be all over the place about me. And as a bubbly girlie from Adelaide myself, I’m sure I’ll find a lot to like about this drop. Crisp and not too sweet, I’m sold and will have to try it.

    Reply

  • It was the first time for me hearing about the chapel hill brand. And i still recall when i picked up the Pinot Grigio from my local, the staff there actually stopped me and said i picked a winner! She said that it was probably the best Pinot they had available to sell.

    Reply

  • I’ve heard a lot of good things about Chapel Hill wines and the reviews are always good. I like that they have low alcohol range as I like to have a few glasses when I finally get to have one. Not being too sweet is a bonus that suits me well.

    Reply

  • The idea of having a lower alcohol content wine without compromising taste is really exciting. There’s nothing worse than feeling “under the weather” from the effects of alcohol. This lovely wine ticks all the boxes, lower alcohol and a refreshing flavour. I’m keen to get the Pinot Grigio in my cart and into my fridge!

    Reply

  • This wine sounds delightful and really refreshing to enjoy on a summer afternoon. I love that it tastes fresh and crisp and still has the same punch as other wine. It sounds like an absolute delight. I will have to give it a try next time i am at the bottle shop looking for some wine.
