SKOY Cloth Review and Giveaway

This is absolutely hands down my new favorite cleaning product! SKOY gave me 2 packs of SKOY cloths to test out. I have tested SKOY cloths with everything from scrubbing crusted on dishes to wiping up spills. You can use them over and over again. I have washed them in the washing machine and dried them many times now and they come out looking good as new. I have found that drying them in the dryer shrinks them until you put water on them again and then they go back to normal size. I recommend the lowest setting on your dryer or to air dry them. They are very heavy duty and last a long time. They soak up spills very well. Just the other day my littlest got a hold of a cup of milk on the kids' table and it went all over. SKOY came to my rescue and sopped up every last little drip. These things are fabulous! They are so much better than a paper towel or napkin!

My boys were thrilled with this product as well. They used one to clean the bathroom and when they cleaned the faucet and the mirror with it they both shined...no streaks and no residue like what paper towels or napkins leave behind. They made them gleam even better than using newspaper.

I have no qualms about this product. I am, however; disappointed that their website is not browser friendly. I primarily use Firefox at home and had to switch to Explorer to view the website as intended. Maybe they are not aware of this fact. I hope they take it into consideration to view it in different browsers so that they can make it viewable in all browsers. I can overlook this at the moment because of how fantastic this product is.

I like the fact that it's 100% biodegradable! :) Yay!

The SKOY cloth is long-lasting because of the wash ability feature. It dries quickly, so it is not a breeding ground for bacteria.

"Using a SKOY cloth is equivalent to using 15 rolls of paper towels in an average home."

That is not only green, but an outstanding way to save money!

Since SKOY is reusable and washable it can last a very long time, some people still use them after a year. Wow, now that's a long-lasting product.

Thanks!

Skoy is made of cotton and wood-pulp cellulose. You can "clean" them by putting them wet in the microwave.
