ShamWow has a pretty amazing commercial, I actually got excited the first time I saw it
Just in case you haven’t seen the commercial, watch it here, it’s hilarious.
After seeing the commercial about five times, I decided I’d order them and try them out and see if they lived up to the hype. So I created my own ShamWow review.
I’ve had good success with some as seen on TV products in the past, but before it even arrived, I assumed the worse for ShamwWow. When it arrived, however, I was very surprised at the quality.
When I first received my super-towels, the first thing I wanted to do was reenact the commercial and soak up a bunch of water from a bowl.
Things look a lot nicer on TV with camera angles and video editing, but my little test worked surprisingly well. The little towel actually soaked up a ton of water.
The next thing I tried was soaking up soda from the carpet. I didn’t, of course, the carpet in my living room, just in case it didn’t work, but I tried it on a scrap piece of carpet I had sitting in the garage. It was fantastic, the ShamWow pulled up the cola before it had a chance to stain the carpet. If I catch the spill soon enough, I bet I’ll never have a stained carpet again.
The ShamWow was extremely absorbent, but I also wanted to see how durable they were.
I have washed a few of the towels in my washing machine twice and they still seem to hold up really well. I didn’t pay any attention to the ShamWow guy and his 10-year warranty until I saw that they might actually last that long.
Having a ShamWow towel in my kitchen has saved me a bunch of money on paper towels. It also cut down on the amount of garbage I throw out. Which I love since it’s so good for the environment.
ShamWows really do work well and, as dorky as it is, I honestly said “wow” the first time I used one my ShamWow towels.
Do not order ShamWow from TV because you can find them cheaper online.
You can order ShamWow online

ShamWow Review by Lebannon, January 25, 2010
The ShamWow exploded onto the As Seen on TV scene years ago, but unlike most infomercial products, it is still being sold. The so called “super towel” has even appeared on the late night TV show Conan O’Brien.
The guy with the spiky hair makes the ShamWow look like a miracle towel the way he wipes up everything from water to soda through the carpet. The commercial also brags that the ShamWow can sop up wine and pet stains before they stain the carpet for good. The ShamWow is also touted for use as a perfect polishing sham cloth — hence the name.
The super-absorbent towel is billed as having the ability to soak up twenty times its weight in liquid because of its German-engineered fabric. The fabric is also washable and bleachable.
The ShamWow order comes with eight towels, which are guaranteed for 10 years.
ShamWow Review by Paul, December 27, 2009
Wow. I received these for Christmas. It was everthing the box said it was.
I had to fix a broken toilet and sham soaked up
Two inches of water in the top tank. We had no water mess at all.
ShamWow Review by James, October 5, 2009
a lot of our members love using these as well. they were great.
ShamWow Review by sunny, June 17, 2009
good: As absorbant as described in the informercial
bad: I threw it into a washing machine for a 2-hr cycle. After the cycle, the Shamwow towel seemed deteriorated in texture. So I would advise users not to over-wash the shammy.
ShamWow Review by FloridaGirl4Fun, June 4, 2009
Vince punched me in the head.
ShamWow Review by Kathryn, April 5, 2009
I bought these at a home and garden show booth. Most of the products that I have bought at fairs, shows, etc., have not worked as well as the demo selling them did. Not so with sham wows. They work as advertised. My washing machine had a problem recently and caused a huge water flood in my laundry room. The sham wows were able to get all the water up in record time. Best of all I didn’t have to move the washer and dryer at all. I just pushed a sham wow under each and it sucked all the water from underneath!
ShamWow Review by Mike, March 25, 2009
The commercial looks like they might be a scam, but once you get used to them and try them a few times, you find out that they work quite well.
So, yeah, the ShamWows are awesome!
ShamWow Review by Roxanne, February 18, 2009
I picked up my set online for slightly cheaper, as some people suggest. I just have to say these towels are AMAZING they will truly change the way you look at towels forever. It’s almost a religious experience I even heard Jesus Christ Himself used these to perform some of the miracles.
ShamWow Review by john, February 8, 2009
when im in for the long haul sham-wow works perfectly!!!
ShamWow Review by Rosanne, January 17, 2009
We got a set of these for a gift. Frankly I thought it a strange gift but they come in handy. I keep one in the garage for washing the car and it dries it quite well. I also keep the others under the sinks for cleaning and wiping up and they are quite absorbent.
ShamWow Review by Heidi, December 15, 2008
It dried my hair faster than usual.
ShamWow Review by teir teir, November 26, 2008
shamwow isn’t just a super towel, it’s fashion statement!
ShamWow Review by Lori, November 17, 2008
These things really do work and I am so glad I finally purchased them.
ShamWow Review by Benjammin, November 10, 2008
Wow Shamwow! haha. The guy’s enthusiasm is infectious, I never thought I’d buy something like this, but had to try it out. I leave one in the kitchen, one on the bathroom floor and one in the car. I don’t think I could ever be AS excited as the Shamwow guy, but I’m getting there!
ShamWow Review by Kentucky Barb, October 28, 2008
I got a free set of shamwow towels when I bought 1 set of Shamwow from a guy at the fair.
I bought the first set to use under my dog’s food and water dish because using newspapers got so messy. I use another Shamwow as a bath mat for when I get out of the shower and the other shamwow to clean up spills in the kitchen.
It’s been 6 months and my shamwow towels are still holding up strong. I havent even started using all of the shamwows from the second set I got for free.
I will save the other large shamwows for my husband to wash his car with next spring.
ShamWow Review by kelly5k, October 17, 2008
Shamwow is awesome! I love my shamwows and I love the commercial. My favorite part is when he says “cut it in half – BAM 2 shamwows!” I even said that when I cut one of my Shamwows in half!
ShamWow Review by Jenny, October 3, 2008
ShamWow is a great towel but they ask for too much on the TV commercial so if you want to buy Shamwow then you should order ShamWows online because you can get them cheaper.
