Know before you buy
To keep your cloth in top shape, simply wash it in the dishwasher on the top rack or toss it in the washing machine with your regular laundry. Air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the cellulose fibers.
The cloth is made from a blend of wood cellulose and cotton, which naturally hardens as it dries to prevent bacterial growth. Once you dampen it with water, it immediately becomes soft, spongy, and pliable for cleaning.
Yes, the material is non-abrasive and designed to be gentle on all surfaces. Because it is lint-free, it is an excellent choice for streak-free cleaning on glass, mirrors, and stainless steel appliances.
This dishcloth is significantly more absorbent than a typical paper towel, capable of soaking up to 15 times its own weight in liquid. It is designed to handle spills effectively while being a reusable, sustainable alternative.
