    Just bought three packs of 4 x microfibre cloths for 99p per pack of 4 from ...... Pets at Home of all places! I was just quietly going about my business buying my dog food when I saw them! Very excited now, as I bought some Stardrops for the first time yesterday too - I'm off for a cleaning extravaganza now! Do you think I need to get out more? :D:D

    Cloths are very pretty colours too - packs are pink, lilac, lime green etc. I know it shouldn't matter, but I find cleaning so much more interesting if the cloths are pretty!:o :o

    ...... Also a good soak overnight in bleach between times.

    The packaging on most MF cloths advises against using bleach......

    after reading this thread i went out to tesco and bought myself some microfibre cloths and i just want to say
    OH MY GAAAADD (think janice from friends)
    i have never cleaned things so easily in my life! i was cleaning the insides of my windows at midnight last night and they are fab fab fab. i hardly needed to use any stardrops at all.
    thanks guys :T

    Funny. This was exactly my thought/reaction as well:D. I'm so pleased now I went and bought some, I just wish I'd discovered this thread and microfibre cloths long time ago...

    Ok I know I may embaress myself here but here goes!!!!!

    What do you actually do with a microfibre cloth.I bought one once before but only used it like a dosh cloth and didn't find it much cop

    I have noticed though they are mentioned here alot and wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction of what I can do with one?

  • Good for household cleaning , suface of cloths picks up with less "elbow grease" can be used without cleaning product or with very little for good results , picks up dust easily if used as duster dry or damp Long lasting just dont wash them in machine with fabric softener .
    Can be picked up cheap , I like my large microfiber floor cloth cleans up spills with less scrubbing

    i'm in the microfibre cloth fan club :D

    you can use it to clean/polish ANYTHING!!

    use it wet to wash your car
    use it as a duster in the house
    use a wet one with stardrops to clean the bath and basin, then a dry one to dry/buff it up
    use a wet one/ dry one to polish shower screen
    wipe kitchen surfaces
    clean kitchen sink
    clean top of the oven

    i have about 8 cloths i think, and i use some wet with stardrops for cleaning, then i use a dry one to polish things up

    they're also good for cleaning dirty marks off a carpet ( with stardrops again!)

    i wouldn't be without mine.... i think they're brilliant :D

    they are brilliant for stuffing washable shaped pocket nappies as they are very absorbant.
    great for cleaning windows.
    lots of small steps
    will get you a long way

    hope you bought a new toothbrush as well :rotfl:
  • I have several, and a microfibre mop head - cleans the floor without the need for detergent :j

    I'll add this to the existing microfibre cloth thread so that you can see what others do ;)
