I bought these after reading a column in the local newspaper about how useful microfiber cleaning cloths are. These have been wonderful so far. I have used them to clean everything in my house -- tvs, floors, bathrooms, dusting -- they do it all. Then I just wash and reuse. So much better than all of those disposable products out there today.

Microfiber cleaning towels are the perfect solution to several annoying housekeeping problems. With a warm wet towel in one hand and a dry towel in the other, cleaning glass,walls, tile, just about any surface, becomes much easier. Toss the dirty ones in the laundry and they are like new. Things that spot, like glass and bathroom surfaces, get literally spotless in seconds. I also use them in combination with a disinfecting bathroom/kitchen cleaner (with bleach)to ensure that the surfaces are clean and sanitary. I don't know what I did without them.

I got these because the guy at Cool Tools blog said they were good and MAN THEY ARE!!!
I don't even use cleaner on my glasses anymore just water and quick rub with these. My wife loves them for windows and only a very slightly damp corner and a quick rub cleans off the TV very well (as well as laptop screens!).

I keep a couple of these towels in the bathroom to squeeze the water out of my hair after I wash it. They're so absorbent that my hair dries more quickly (or at least so it seems to me) after they suck the water out of it. I'm seriously thinking about sewing 2 of them together to make more of a hair wrap.

There was a small water leak in the bathroom recently and the carpet got wet. I tossed down a couple of folded microfiber towels and used my foot to press the towels into the carpet firmly. They absorbed nearly all of the moisture, then the carpet and pad dried very quickly on its own after they were removed.

Clean microfibers absorb excess moisture from freshly washed veggies or fruit before they are put in salad or stored in the fridge.

I keep a couple of these in the trunk of the car for wiping dust (I live in the desert) off the windows and head/tail lights. Generally, no glass cleaner or water is needed.

Very handy, generous size, won't scratch mirrors or other glass, even eyeglasses. They launder well, but do not use fabric softener on them.

The only reason I'm not giving these towels 5 stars is that I wish they came in different colors so they can be easily identified as dust rags, grease rags, hair towels, veggie towels, etc. Otherwise, they're just about perfect.

July 08, 2011 UPDATE: Another interesting property of these towels is that they cling to each other and to many other fabrics. That's their nature and it means that they can be used to keep other things from slipping and sliding. So, if your mattress pad slips out of position on your bed, or if you have a chair or other cushion keeps changing position when you get up and down or move around on it, and if what is *under* that cushion is fabric (not wood or plastic, for example), try placing a microfiber towel beneath the cushion and just see what it will do for you.

Since I first bought these towels, I've tried other brands from well known hardware, super-center, and discount stores. In each case they were smaller and fewer to the package yet more expensive, or they were lighter weight and without the "cling" that these towels have. (I did find some that came in other colors and were extremely thick and soft, but the binding on the edges came apart the first time they were washed.) So, I still stand by these towels for all sorts of uses and, unless they have changed since I first wrote this review, I can recommend them.

I do wish they were made in the U.S.A.

I love these Towels. I just read a book from the vine program that told of how to use these as dish drying towels as in getting rid of racks. I tried it as I had a clean microfiber towel that was new. It was wonderful. I pitched the yucky dish drainer and now I just sit them on the counter and the towels suck them dry in just a minute or so. Then I put them away and in no time the microfiber towels are dry.

It's nice having clear clean sinks as I tended to leave the dry dishes there and just use from them the same ones all the time.

The only thing you do have to watch is to shake them out hard before use as they have a lot of sheeding. After they are wet and dry once that stops.

These are a great deal and I'll use half for kitchen and half for the house. They make mirrors sparkle with out any streaks. Highly recommend.

These towels are great for many things: washing windows, washing your car, dusting, etc. These towels hold up well and collect a lot of the dirt that is on many different surfaces.

The towels will turn a noticeable black after cleaning with them for a while; however, just throw them in the washing machine and they turn back to that nice yellow that they were when you first got them. You can dry them in the dryer just make sure it is a low heat and do not use any fabric softener.

I would recommend them for everyone who is doing any form of cleaning since they hold up well and work well. My only complaint is that I wish they were thicker, but this is not a big complaint since they supply you with 12 at about $13 (~$1 each plus tax). Purchase these, you will not regret it!

I bought these as I wanted some micro fibers cloths to clean my glasses, my iphone, my camera lens etc.. and the little 6x6 cloths are $5 each or more. But this mega pack and you'll have mico fiber cloths to spare. I keep one at work, one in my car, one at home, one in my computer bag, well, you get the picture. Remember tho to get some lens cleaner fluid if you are cleaning something that could be scratch. I like that they are nice & bright so I can find them easily.

When I bought this product I thought in a small towel but the size for this is BIG... great and economic price!

1/3 of the pack will make even the worst bathroom spotless. We use these to clean EVERYTHING in our apartment. Gunk on the counter, grime on the floors, dust, grease... everything gets picked up like magic by these insane (WASHABLE) cloths.

I love these cloths. They're a good size & clean so much better than paper towels, rags, sponges, etc. They even work dry. with no ckeaning products, on many items. I put one in the car too.
