WFMW: Norwex
Remember that post I did about my favorite cleaning products way back here? Well, I have a new favorite. When so many people came out of the woodwork to vouch yes for Norwex I decided to give it a try. I ordered the enviro cloth and the window cloth online and I was hooked! Seriously. This house has old windows that are impossible to clean. No matter what I did they kept that streaky, old, cloudy look. Now? Let me tell you. I whizz over them and they are sparkling clean! Well, when I whizz over them they are. There is a toddler in my house. More often than not there are adorable hand prints and not so adorable pretzel smears on them.
I was getting ready for my family to come when Lindsey, the boy’s piano teacher, noticed me swiping down windows. She looked in disbelief and said, “I want one of those for my house.”
Now I had a party and I want half the stuff in the book! The funny thing is, I figured out I’ve been cleaning my windows wrong and it still worked. 😉 I can’t wait to try it the way it’s supposed to be done to see if I’m even happier. I was using the enviro cloth really wet and then using the window cloth damp. Literally, all I did was wipe. I didn’t worry about water droplets left behind and as long as I didn’t clean it when the sun was shining on it, I had no trouble. Now I’m hearing you usually leave the window cloth dry. I’m anxious to try it but I might stick with my way since it works. Having a damp cloth makes for less resistance which translates into less stress for my grouchy shoulder muscle. I like being able to clean all the windows in the house without suffering for two days afterward.
I love that I don’t have to carry around paper towels and windex and a trash bag and that I don’t go through a roll of paper towels every time I do a thorough inside and out job! Want to try them for yourself? You can order them here. My first recommendation is the basic package. You can literally clean most things in your house with just this! I’ve only been using mine for windows. At the party I learned that people use the enviro cloth for anything from dusting to cleaning bathrooms to getting mechanic grease out of carpets. Yes, you heard right. Just the cloth and water!! How’s that for a simple cleaning routine?
If you’re lucky, you might even get help! If not with the scrubbing, at least with the fingerprinting.
My party is still open until October 31st so if you order before then you can use Michelle Beachy for your host. After October 31st, just skip the host name.
Happy scrubbing!
I love, love, these silver clothes I used to hate cleaning windows now I love it, made a special place n special basket to keep my cloths. worth every penny!
I just had a party and learned that some people are liking the car cloth in place of the window cloth. They say it does a better job. I’ve been trying that and am thinking I like it better too!!
