Default Norway cleaning products?

A friend is selling Norwex, a line of green cleaners and cleaning materials like cloths or mops.

Anyone use them? I made my own green cleaners for a while, but honestly, I felt they didn't clean as well So I'm interested in trying Norwex, but they're a little pricey.



ETA: My computer autocorrected "Norwex" to "Norway" in the thread title

Same here, I know someone who sells it but have never tried anything. I'd love to hear from someone who uses them!

I use some of them and have friends that use them too. I love them! All you need is water and the cloth to clean for most things. And it really works. I love how my counters and table feel after wiping them with the norwex cloth. So clean! And then as the cloth dries it purifies itself because it's embedded with silver. I also use their body cloth on my face and I am loving how my skin feels. I have the dusting mitt and window cloth too and those have both worked great as well.

I have two cloths that are for cleaning mirrors. One you wet and wash with, and the other you dry with. My aunt gave them to me, and I do really like them. They work very well. I have no idea how much they cost though. I've heard the products are expensive, and I haven't looked into them further because I've been happy with Bon Ami, vinegar, and my sponges.

I have three washcloths and the crystal deodorant. I love them. That's all I've tried so far, though.

Default Re: Norway cleaning products?

I'd love to hear from people who've used both Norwex and other microfiber. I've been cleaning with water and microfiber for years. Or microfiber and water & vinegar. I have microfiber dusting mitts, too. None of them Norwex. I've never felt a need to spend more.

Default Re: Norway cleaning products?

My cousin did a "does it work?" episode on Norwex a few years ago I think (he's an investigative reporter)...one of my friends who sells it posted the video on FB, which was one of those crazy small-world moments I'm pretty sure he came out saying it was legit. I'll try to find it.

ETA: here it is:
http://www.wmcactionnews5.com/story/...crofiber-cloth

I say this without a dog in the fight, for the record...I actually don't own any Norwex except a face washcloth that my SIL gave me. Which I love b/c I'm so lazy I love washing my face without having to use soap ...but I don't sell it and have never tried any of their cleaning products

Default Re: Norway cleaning products?

I have the microfiber cloths, mirror wipe, and mop. Love them all. I've used the mop for several years and it's still my favorite thing to use on our hardwood floors. You can see all the dirt and grime it picks up when you rinse it out.
