SHAMWOW !!!
i was talking to my cousin and she said she watched the shamwow chomercial in spanish and i said thats a good topic for a blog post.
The Claim
"You'll say wow every time you use the shamwow ." This revolutionary fabric works wet or dry, acts like a vacuum to soak up spills and holds 20 times its weight in moisture. The machine-washable rayonlike textile wicks liquid and air-dries quickly for reuse, saving big bucks on paper towels.
The Test:
Soaking soda from a carpet, cleaning a spill from a plant pot, wiping kitchen counters,turning it into a bath mat and drying off after a swim.
The Verdict:
It works, but keep a roll of paper towels on hand. And don't expect to say wow every time you use it.

Drying off after a swim was an experience in exfoliation, with the Shamwow rubbing it in at about 220 grit. It was very light in the backpack on the way to the swimming hole, however. Caught in the rain, it can wipe you down from forehead to pant leg. And after a shower, it makes for a decent bath mat. In the kitchen, it's too coarse to use as a towel and too stiff to be a napkin, but it can scour a stovetop and it's not a bad place mat. On food spills, it works better on thinner liquids—wine, yes; tomato sauce, no.
Every one has diffrent opinions it may work for some peole but it mighe not work for some people. When the comercial says " not available in stores" its a lie !! They sell them at target and walgreens.
They are awesome for spills on carpet -- they really do soak up everything and leae the carpet only slightly damp. They're infinitely better than paper towels for that sort of thing. I also agree with the person who said they're great for wet hair especially after a swim meet of a water polo game of just a fun day in the water it really dires you off quicly. There are alot of uses but items you see on t.v son't always work.
