Things to watch OUT for ... scratchy thread in the hems

Aside from that, they all seem to do a good job. I have a set of the expensive variety, and some cheapo ones from the Walmart automotive aisles and I can't tell the difference.

Not certain if these are microfiber clothes, but I love Supercloth..got them years ago at QVC..bought tons and
still swear by them...no detergent necessary...great
for mirrors, glass of any kind, kitchen cabinets...
no streaks ever.

Good luck

Mine are from QVC also, Don Aslett Rules!! LOL I also have the Microfiber mop. In a year and a half I have never had to buy Windex or a floor stuff and everything sparkles.

Pauline buy one cloth, or borrow one and try it. If nothing else you will never go back to Windex and paper towels. LOL

Lazy, what did you use it on that you had hem problems?

I have one I got at the grocery store, and it is thicker (not longer loops, but thicker fibers) than the ones I got from Solutions. This one gives off some lint, and is somehow slightly harder to handle than the others. The ones from Solutions are lighter weight, yet a bit larger. They seem to grab just a little better (they also grab the dry skin on the backs of my knuckles more persistantly - maybe that's a good test?).

I bought a bag of microfiber cloths in the automotive aisle at Costco for $6 or $7 and they are enormous, thick, soft, and generally much, much nicer than the more expensive ones I've picked up at Bed Bath & Beyond and similar places. The only odd thing is that I washed them all in one load with no detergent on the sanitary setting in my HE4t washer before I used them, and they turned a flourescent green color. I think they were a dull yellow color in the package. The color change is a mystery but they work beautifully.

I got microfiber cloths at giant tiger and love them for dusting but not to wash dishes because they stain very badly and cannot get them clean.

I'm having a hard time getting over the idea that no cleaner is necessary when using them -- are they pretreated with chemicals of some kind? How do they kill germs on surfaces if they just dry wipe?

Did I hear you aren't supposed to use fabric softener when you launder them?

You should never use fabric softener on microfiber cloths or towels, it reduces their absorbancy. Microfiber cloths on their own will not kill germs.

I'm new here but had to jump in. I love these cloths and use them in tandem with a hand-held steamer. The steam will kill off germs. I clean almost everything like that but you need a lot of those cloths.

Loriellen, thanks for the heads up on Costco. I keep MC in the bathrooms, car, kitchen, and laundry room so I can always use more.

I noticed that my grocery store is carrying them selling individually for $2.50. I didn't buy any but the look like the ones that I got from Solutions.

I got the Microfibers from Bed, Bath & Beyond and also a bundle from Walmart (automotive section). The Walmarts are softer and thicker. Microfibers are definitely good!

I love my "MYSTICMAID". TheyÂre absolutely the best cloths I have ever used on my windows, glass table tops, mirrors and granite.
The ones I bought were pricey ($11.95 each - I have "The Original Microfiber Cleaning Cloth" and the "power pad") but I have never had anything pick up like they do!
I purchased mine at a local cookware shop. The thing that sold me was when I took the dampened one from their display over to the kitchen area that they use for food classes and demos, and wiped over their granite counters. Even though the counter was clean, it was streaked (could see in the gloss where it had been wiped downÂ). I wiped the cloth over it and it was spotless!
After that I went to the front door and effortlessly wiped the fingerprints off the glass around the door pull. I was sold!!
The woman at the register laughed when I came to check out. She said they had been hoping I wouldnÂt stop! LOL
