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.

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.

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.

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!

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!

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.

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.
