Skoy Cloth Review
If you are familiar with the green blogging world chances are that you have heard of Skoy Cloths.
The earth friendly, reusable, 100% biodegradable, washable, 100% natural cloth that you use to clean with instead of paper towels and sponges.
Yup, that Skoy Cloth.
When Karen, co-owner of Skoy Cloths, contacted me about doing a review you know I said Yes!
I use a similar product and have been very happy with it so I was eager to compare the two.
Let me tell you, I am just as happy with Skoy Cloths! They work wonderfully.
Skoy was founded by two stay-at-home moms (Michelle & Karen) who live in Encinitas, California.
The idea originated when Michelle was living in Europe in the late 90’s. She discovered a product that was similar to the SKOY cloth and it was just amazing. Over time she found the cloth to be indispensible. When she moved back to the US, she realized that the use of a sponge was inadequate and the excessive use of paper towels, wasteful. Michelle searched and searched for a similar cloth and nothing even compared; nothing was of the same caliber. This is when Michelle introduced the cloth to Karen. She immediately fell in love with it and could not imagine cleaning with anything else.’ We then put our heads together and discussed a way to bring this product to the US with the requirement that it meet our high standard. Now we are so excited to be able to offer the SKOY cloth to you—which is everything that we had hoped it would be.
**Each SKOY is approximately 7”x 7”
**Made using water-based colors and inks
**Can be cleaned by placing in the dishwasher, washing machine, or microwave
**Made in Germany but package in the USA (click here to read about the factory)
**Is equivalent to using 15 rolls of paper towels
**Made from natural cotton & wood-pulp cellulose
**Saves $ and tress!
**Come in a variety of colors; orange, yellow, green, blue, pink, purple, & white
The different colors are a nice way to keep their uses separate (blue for bath, yellow for kitchen).
They actually remind me a little of a car shammie. Before you use them you have to moisten them, squeeze out the excess water, and then wipe away.
I really like using them on my sinks, especially the stainless steel sink in my kitchen. I use the baking soda and vinegar and scrub with my yellow Skoy and off comes the yuck without leaving any residue behind. That is the part that I like the most. No left over residue. I can literally wipe once and up comes the dirt, grim, and cleaner without having to go over and over the same spot. After I am done I pop it in the microwave and then lay it out to dry. Good as new!
I have also found that I can use a smalled amount of my Method All Surface Cleaner™ because the cleaner does not soak into the cloth. Another bonus!
The more I use them the more I love them!
