Scotch-Brite Greener Clean Bamboo Cleaning Cloths Review

Hey, I found these handy bamboo dishcloths at Walmart from Scotch-Brite. They just came out with a new line of green cleaning products, called Greener Clean which includes bamboo wash cloths and eco-friendly scrubber sponges.

Scotch Brite, a 3M company, has been making cleaning sponges since the 1950's and now they are "going green"! I tried these soft bamboo cloths for the kitchen and loved them. 

They come in a recycled paper wrapper, 2 to a  pack, for around $6.00 . You can find them in Target, Walgreen's, Walmart and a few other stores. Next month they will be having a big push with advertising--so look for coupons!

These soft cloths are made with natural materials: 60% rayon made from bamboo and 40% cotton, perfect for natural cleaning needs.

I like the natural-looking color, a soft brown, and the raised design is good for scrubbing. I was disappointed though in one way--I think as eco-friendly as these cloths are, I pretty sure they have dye in them--to make them look "au natural"! I am a stickler for things like that--just let it be natural, don't dye it to make it "seem" natural!!

Otherwise, I think these bamboo cleaning cloths are a great step toward sustainable, eco-friendly cleaning.  Bamboo is a fast-growing grass-like plant, so it is a great product to manufacture cloths and sponges from, instead of something synthetic or non-renewable.

Try them out--made for the kitchen cleaning--but I think they are soft enough to use on your face!
