A reversible sponge rubber brush, mop or duster which includes a resiliently compressible rectangular block of a synthetic or sponge rubber having rectangular side portions and opposite end portions of a substantially square section with the length of the sponge rubber block being substantially greater than the width thereof, and in which rectangular block there may be provided peripherally extending slots which effectively divide the block into four rectangularly shaped sponge rubber portions which are interconnected within the block by an inner resilient web portion of the block located inwardly of the opposite end and side portions of the block and effectively defined by the slots extending peripherally of the side and end portions of the block. The peripheral slots in the resilient block are so arranged that a wire form or loop of a rigid material provides a holder for the resilient sponge rubber block. The wire loop may be selectively recieved in the slots extending peripherally in the sides and end portions of the block to present for use a work surface of one or another of the rectangularly shaped resilient sponge rubber portions of the sponge rubber block. Thus, there is provided a reversible sponge rubber brush, mop or duster including rectangular portions providing four working sides or surfaces, each of which may be selectively exposed to a surface to be cleaned.
