E cloth vs Spontex Kitchen Wonder?

digitaltoast

A green but slightly naive friend of mine spend a small fortune (they worked out at £5 each, I think) on dishcloths.
These were uber-green, apparently. Needed no chemicals. Used micro-fibres etc.

Well, I picked up something in Tesco today called the Spontex Wonder Cloth.
It was 99p. And it looked and felt EXACTLY like the ecloth.

Is this basically the same thing, but £4 cheaper because it doesn't have the "eco" tag to it? It seems to do the same thing!

I've had a spontex kitchen cloth for about 2 years now. Doesn't exactly look as fresh as it did when I first got it but still going strong. So even if they have a slightly higher environmental impact it would surely be offset by the fact that they last forever?

I bought an E-cloth today. It cost £5.85 which goes through me but we had a Dualit kettle and toaster bought for us and they'd gone really dull and the lady in the shop realy sold the cloth as the answer. We also have high black gloss granite worktops and they smear terribly. I have used it today and its fab... all my surfaces are gleaming! Expensive but so far its worth it howerever if the other works just as well then I'd happily swap and save £3.

Or £4.86 unless my maths fails me. Have a look in Tesco, get the Spontex version and tell me if you think it's the same thing. Looks sort of similar, just a bit "spongier"

The best cleaning ecloths I have found for everything are the ones my sister in law bought for me. They were 4 for a pound. They were from a pound shop - not sure which one. I have expensive ecloths too. They do exactly the same job I find. Not tried the Tesco Spongex.
