I bought this product and I'm very disappointed, IT DOESN'T WORK like in the commercial.

This product is a total scam and I wish that I searched for reviews before I bought them.

I learned my lesson the hard way...


I wish I had read reviews before purchasing this product, but I was wowed by the informercial and took the bait. I used the smaller rag to wash some windows and when I went to use it again the next day, it fell apart; tore up like a cheap piece of felt. Yesterday I used another one to do my cupboards and, yes, again! It too is falling apart. Guaranteed for 10 years?? I've only had them for 10 days!! What a waste of money. I should have known better.


well after reading few reviews people say that these towels work, but with like a little more absorbing percentage, nothing like in the advertisement, so i guess its bull shit.

I've seen it thousands of times.

The fact that it has the word "Sham" right in it's name gets me laughing.

The fact that you could cut it in half drew me away from it right away. No durable fabric that could absorb liquid that well and be able to be cut in half could last 10 years.

Theres a whole science to infomercials. The history channel did a show about it once, it was awesome.


That was a cheap infomercial though.

from watching that video the guy kinda looked like he wanted the sham wow to fail miserably and it didn't do all that bad from the looks of it.

It's just an over-advertised shammy towel.

The commercial is gold though, that guy could make anything sound worth buying.
