By using the e-cloth range I've got sparkling stainless steel and glass in my kitchen. My work surfaces are hygienically clean. My bathroom mirrors are shiny and my sinks and taps are looking good. My laminate and tiled floors are being kept clean with the e-cloth mop. It's all very quick, easy and effective!
This week I'm focusing on washing up. We used to have a dish washer but decided that after our two eldest kids left home, that we should go back to washing up by hand as we were creating far less dirty plates etc. I believe that our decision has reduced our water and electricity consumption, plus we no longer need to buy expensive dishwasher products. Could we go any greener?
E-Cloth has a Washing Up Pad which is a good sized pad with a cloth side and a scouring side. The scouring side is for scrubbing off stuck-on food and stains, while the cloth side cuts through grease and grime using just water. They also have an E-Towel for super fast, streak free drying up.
We have been using the Washing Up Pad to tackle our washing up. For lightly soiled crockery or glassware, it works brilliantly with water alone. When washing up greasy pans it worked really well with a squirt of environmentally friendly washing-up liquid. I must admit that having the lemon scented bubbles made it feel more satisfying, because that is what I'm used to.

The abrasive side was really good for scrubbing away burned on food and stuck on stains. It was excellent on my husband's stained coffee mug! The size of the pad is excellent for making short work of washing up and it feels very sturdy in your hand. I hate scouring sponges where the abrasive section peels away or disintegrates with use. The pad is still perfectly intact.
Using just hot water and the pad for much of our washing up is working really well and has made our bottle of environmentally washing up liquid, which we use for greasy plates and pans etc, last much longer. This is very cost effective.
The E-Towel is a tea towel that is made with a material with super absorbent fibres that is four times more absorbent and effective than regular cotton drying up towels. It came in a Country Classic design and was 70 x 40 cm in size. I didn't really appreciate just how poorly cotton tea towels perform until using this! Just one wipe leaves things dry, streak free and grease free. It is exceptionally good on glassware. I hate it when glasses get smears and white residue on them from being washed up. The e-towel literally left them crystal clear, completely dry and sparkling with one quick wipe!

The packaging says you will never use an ordinary tea-towel again. I can see why! It also wipes down surfaces to a dry, streak-free finish with a single, once over! It is definitely a very effective cloth! Ian was really impressed with the e-towel as it cut the drying up time down considerably and left everything completely dry ready for putting away in the cupboard.
The Washing Up Pad is £2.99 and the Country Classic Tea Towel is £4.99. A small price to pay to revolutionize the way you wash up!
