... I purchased this item to remove some debris off my camcorder lens and found it to do the job very nicely.

The microfiber texture feels nice - a little beady, but soft and textured.

Using it was easy, I just wiped the lens in a circular fashion with light pressure and eventually the debris was gone. (some fingerprints and what appeared to be a scratch but wasn't)

The packaging is a little subpar though. It comes in a plastic bag which you tear open at the bottom to slide the cloth out. However doing so leaves adhesive residue, which the cloth then sticks to and you have to tear it off, making those sections of the cloth appear phyically different - a bit roughed up I'd say. This is poor design as the packaging says to store the cloth inside the bag when not in use to avoid contamination, so I used a scissor to cut the bottom of the bag with the adhesive residue off.

I've yet to machine wash it, but so far it works well. It's just a cheap lens cleaning cloth after all.

I probably never would have considered purchasing this cleaning cloth without having it recommended to me in an article about Treo 650 (smartphone) accessories.

Using anything other than a cleaning cloth designed for these sensitive surfaces can lead to scratches and permanent damage.

I carry it in my laptop case and use it almost daily, both to remove the oily residue left by my fingers that quickly builds up on my Treo's touchscreen, but also to keep my laptop computer screen sparkling.

It's fast, it's easy and it's a safe and inexpensive way to protect your investments.

5.0 out of 5 stars the end all solution..., February 25, 2006

I had never heard of these things before nor had I heard anybody talk about them...I just randomly bought them from amazon and I have to tell you...if you wear glasses...these are ABSOLUTELY INDISPENSIBLE. It's honestly, besides maybe my mp3 player, my toothbrush, and my wallet, the only item I use daily and it is a very effective product for its size and price. I use them almost exclusively on my glasses but they say you can use them on all kinds of stuff like computer monitors and so on...I have yet to try it on them, but when you wipe these things over your lenses, there is a definite feeling of them getting clean...If you're looking for a pocket sized solution to keep things clean, this is it.
