Swedish Wholesale Swedish Dish Cloths - 10 Pack Reusable, Absorbent Hand Towels for Kitchen, Counters & Washing Dishes - Cellulose Sponge Cloth - Eco Friendly Gifts - Assorted

I purchased this item because it was advertised as "Made in Europe. " " According to their website's marketing: "Made in Europe" is a phrase that is used to describe a product that is made in Europe. Don't be fooled by low-cost Chinese knockoffs! " They don't say where in Europe, but the over-abundance of information suggests that it's somewhere in Europe. " The word "Swedish" makes you think they're from that country. Regardless, I am comfortable purchasing goods from any European country because they all have high labor standards (no slaves or children), pay fair wages, value sustainability, and maintain high standards to protect consumer health and welfare. "Made in Europe" was written on the package, which surprised me. China is where the product is made. " What? How can a product that has traveled halfway around the world be considered "eco-friendly" if it has been placed in a plastic bag? These dish cloths are not cheap. You can't put them in a plastic bag where they are manufactured for less money than shipping them to the other side of the planet, let alone the environmental cost? A higher price is acceptable because I am willing to pay a significant premium to purchase goods from a country with ethical and trustworthy business practices. However, I have a gut feeling that something here isn't quite right. Because I specifically sought a China-made product, the fact that China is involved in any capacity makes me extremely unhappy. free. As a result, I now do business with China at European prices. Not good! That's not good!.

) following the use of; Things like jar garlic "seeds," tomato "seeds," and other similar items are easily rinsed out when using them to wash dishes, unlike cotton cloths. They also work well to dry the sink after washing dishes, clean the counters, and so on, because you can wring them out completely. They also don't stink, as advertised. I threw a few of them in the washer and hung them to dry today, but I realized too late that I'd thrown one in the dryer. It had shrunk by at least an inch on all sides. "Perhaps if you run water on it, it'll grow back!" my husband suggested. " He was joking, but when I ran water over it, it returned to its original size! So, if you'd like, you can dry them! This purchase has made me extremely happy, and I would highly recommend these.

Money. I'm not sure why these are so popular. They're stiff and have an unpleasant sensation to them. They leave a stain. They don't dry flat and feel and look like wrinkled dirty cardboard when they're dry. Probably the worst purchase I've ever made; I'd return them if I could. But I kept trying to persuade myself that I liked them and that I should use them. Awful. Instead of spending $18, go to Target and buy a 6-pack of white wash rags for $1.

These are peculiar, but not in a bad way. They aren't as soft and pliable as standard kitchen towels. These are unmistakably science fiction. a strange sponge- hybrid of a towel They absorb liquids as if by magic and leave no trace. The color, on the other hand, is absolutely stunning. It looks like I'm wiping my counters with hospital sheets, which isn't the case. They dry to crispy sheets that refuse to lay flat after being washed according to the manufacturer's instructions. They're not a major flaw, but they make it impossible to use them for certain tasks. Every morning, for example, I like to place a clean paper towel on the counter to catch coffee spoons and spills. Instead, I planned on using these. They're so lumpy and uneven after washing (and letting them air dry) that you can't even lay a spoon on them. br>br>They're fine for everyday use and haven't stained when washed. Any rough handling will quickly degrade the towel, so keep an eye out for stray bits. When they become grungy or crumbly, we simply toss them into the compost bin. br>br>I won't be buying these again. I was expecting them to be softer and dry back to flat sheets for the price. For what you get, it's a bit pricey.

These, in my opinion, were portrayed incorrectly. I looked for "made in Sweden" items on Amazon. "These appeared out of nowhere. " To cut a long story short, I found no indication in the product description that they were made in China, which was a huge letdown. I'm not sure if the country of origin was revealed, but I didn't notice it. After the Chinese dog food scare a few years ago, I no longer allow Chinese products in my kitchen. These will be sent back as soon as possible.

However, this method is not recommended for dishes that are particularly difficult to dry. I like these because of the bright colors, practicality, washability, and ease of use. characteristics of drying I will say that they are not a substitute for a steel scrub pad for really baked-on cooking messes, even when dry. Not only will it not remove really tough stains, but it will also cause the dishcloth to shred. So, instead of tossing your heavy-duty equipment in the trash, I haven't found a heavy-duty scrubber for pans yet, but these are great for general kitchen use. br>br>While I was trying to figure out what kind of container would be best for these, another reviewer's photo of the cloths standing upright in a napkin holder came in handy. I bought two 10-packs, and both of them fit into the photo's napkin holder. That napkin holder has also been reviewed on Amazon, so if you're interested, check out my review for the correct link. br>br>While these are machine washable, I don't think they should be dried. Because so many people do laundry here, all of mine have done so far; they are still usable afterward, but their shape has been significantly distorted. I'm not sure if air-conditioning can prevent this. drying; I'll update the review once I've had a chance to test the remaining new ones before someone else in the family throws them in the dryer.
