I recently had the chance to try out microfiber cleaning cloths, and now I’m wondering why I didn’t start using them sooner! A reader sent me some useful information and a few products from Norwex to test. Initially, I was skeptical about how well a single cloth could clean everything, especially without any water, but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Here’s what I’ve discovered since using microfiber:
First off, a single cloth can literally clean my entire kitchen from top to bottom without any chemicals. I’ve found that microfiber cloths outperform any cleaning method I’ve tried before. Plus, because I don’t need to use any additional cleaning products, cleaning up is much faster. Here are the biggest perks I’ve noticed:
Microfiber cleaning is not only environmentally friendly but also easy on the wallet! After exploring a few brands, I decided to go with Norwex for several reasons. I didn’t realize how effective the cloths were until I washed them for the first time. I’d been rinsing and drying them after each use, but after about four days, I ran a small load of six microfiber cloths. The amount of dirt they had collected was astounding, even after rinsing them.
I’m convinced that these cloths will save me a lot of money since I won’t need to buy natural cleaning products as often. While they are a little more expensive upfront, especially Norwex compared to the bulk packs available at Sam’s Club, the investment is definitely worth it.
My favorite cloth is incredibly versatile. I used it to clean my entire kitchen, tackling everything from cabinet doors smeared with grease and fingerprints to granite countertops. Initially, I thought there were streaks left behind, only to realize they were natural grooves in the stone that had previously been filled with grime. I also used the cloth to polish faucets and clean windows streak-free.
Although I don’t own the Norwex mop system, the same cloth worked wonders on my floors. It effortlessly removed stains from applesauce, homemade play dough, veggie smoothies, and more. Even tough spots on my oven door and stubborn stains in the tub were no match. For cleaning stainless steel appliances, the polishing cloth worked perfectly, leaving everything gleaming.
Dusting is usually a chore I dislike as it seems to spread dust around, but with the microfiber mitt, it actually picks up dust instead. Even a dry mitt on a smooth surface felt slightly sticky due to its fine fibers collecting dust and old cleaning product residues. The kids also enjoyed helping, since there were no chemicals involved.
As for the body cloths, they turned out to be far more than just glorified washcloths. They are particularly handy for wiping down kids and tables after meals. I even tried a four-day experiment using just the cloths without soap, and they worked really well, even on garden dirt and sweat. They’re especially beneficial for people who are sensitive to soaps.
My personal favorite for personal use was the smoother body cloth, which removed my makeup effortlessly, including mascara, far better than my usual olive oil method, and without wasting cotton balls.
I also sampled the polishing paste, Norwex detergent, and odor-eliminating spray. They were all free from harmful chemicals, and the spray was particularly effective for stinky kids’ shoes. It’s great for removing musty smells from laundry left in the washer overnight too.
Overall, I’m thoroughly impressed with Norwex products and officially a microfiber fan! I appreciate that Norwex incorporates silver for its antibacterial benefits. Microfiber has significantly cut down my cleaning time, which is fantastic for our household. With six kids and a husband who values tidiness, these products help keep our home stress-free.
