[@BabyJayOnline]

First i want to thank you! You have changed my mindset to see cleaning as sometbing positive and the manner in which I clean making everything so much faster. May you go into depth about when and why do you choose to spray product on cloth first or uncleaned surface first? Also, may you tell me if it is a bad thing to soak my microfiber cloth in cleaning solution. Then squeezing out access water until cloth is just damp to then clean off surface?

[@daisybastarache8859]

Since watching your channel, I have been enjoying cleaning more as I feel like the house is actually clean...your homemade products are used daily and I couldn't clean without your microfiber cloths. My appliances simply don't shine without them. Thank you for inspiring me to be a more efficient cleaner!

[@olympicslondon2012]

I feel the same way! Clean my space really made my home clean! I got their clothes this year! The waffle one is absolute gold!

[@WhatsInAN8me]

I recieved a 8x10 glossy photo in the Mail Today full of finger prints i took one of the microfiber clothes and wiped them off and can never tell they were even on the photos. These cloths are truely miracles in all ways!

[@corey3151]

I do clean with microfiber and I replaced all my old, cheaper ones with makers clean! Big difference in quality. I primarily use the general purpose but I really like my flat weave cloth for glass. Vinegar, water and cornstarch along with the flat weave means streak free glass. Just finished reading your book as well. I enjoyed it. Learned a lot as well.

[@hollz1843]

I've used your big waffle weave for dish towels/hands for about 4 years, the same ones too! & I have your multipurpose cloths & the tiny microfiber cloths oh & the squares! Love them all.

[@rubberdc]

This time , I watched the WHOLE video closely and listened closely to what you were describing . I wanted to know about how microfiber cloths are different to the ones i use now and BOY , you know your cloths . THANK YOU . I went straight onto order some .

[@janeschettler4931]

I have used your microfiber cloths since I found your channel8 years ago and buy them for my grandchildren when they leave for college and spray bottles with your recipes for cleaning spray. I recently bought your bathrobe and love it!

[@tristaware2119]

We started using microfiber for everything during Covid. I use and love your glass and scrub squares. I just ordered the mop system

[@beckyseebach3029]

Quality really does matter with microfiber. I use yours and E-Cloth exclusively and there’s no going back! Keep up the good work!

[@gelwood99]

I love your clothes, I have tried others and they fail. I bought the large house pack several years ago, a 6 pack of the gray waffle towels, a 2-pack, and a second 2-pack for dusting and finally I got your mop when it was first rolled out. I love all that I have and use! Thank you!

[@colleenbeamer6403]

Love your Maker's Clean cloths - they are a game changer when it comes to cleaning. My new favourite is your "Scrub Square" 'cause I can "scrub" everything without worrying that it's going to harm a finish. They get nice a soapy, but rinse easily and well. 😊😊

[@kathrynhasbrouck9007]

Right in the middle of cooking dinner.. I’m getting closer to being right on time on watching your videos. I’m usually at work by now but I’m off today. Thank you for sharing! Have a wonderful weekend!!!

[@mikehannahs]

These cleaning tips you share and show really helps a lot, I’m one of those guys who enjoys cleaning and enjoys the reward of a clean space afterwards, I even use your tips in my shop 😂, if you can I’d love some like auto shop type cleaning tips, I appreciate you taking the time to share your tips with us, thank you

[@elizabethheard7148]

I clean with your microfiber cloths and they are excellent. I cleaned my baseboards with a Bissel steam shot and microfiber cloth and was amazed at the results

[@kathleenbeauchemin8146]

The general purpose is fantastic and the flat weave cleans my glasses amazing and mirrors are always streak and lint free!

[@verlenelewis9866]

These are absolutely the very best microfiber cloths I have ever had. They are o nice and thick. But what I really noticed was the wonderful feel of them. Definitely not cheap feeling. I purchased some more yesterday when I got the sale notice. I use them on everything, worth every penny !! ❤

[@jazzie_wolf]

I love my cloths. The waffle weave one is my absolute favorite, but I have the small space kit and they are the best towels in my house. They never let me down when I’m cleaning!

[@prashanthikota5924]

I have learnt a lot with your videos. Never thought cleaning is easy. I am enjoying ❤

[@MarisaAndChew]

Completely random thing I use microfiber cloths for is when I overwater a house plant I just truck the edge into the tray and then it doesn't overflow and the single cloth doesn't leak, just sucks all that water up. I've also placed it on the top of soil of plants I've bought that had been overwatered and would rot before they could dry out. Instead of repotting I just placed a microfiber cloth on the soil and it wicks up the moisture and has definitely saved many of my plants, esp ones from the grocery store that come overwatered!

[@cleanmyspace]

Oh wow! I love this and I haven’t thought of it! I take one around with me when I water plants in case of any spills but this is a really cool use I’ve never considered. Thanks!

[@CindyKilleffer]

Love this ❤

They make great washcloths, too! Lightly exfoliating but not harsh, I even use it (gently) on my face.

[@ruthhaddox242]

Ive used micrifiber cloths for years. I really like them for cleaning my house.

[@adashofgratitude7268]

Your microfiber cloths are THE BEST! I exclusively use yours.

[@TheViewmaster1971]

I always remove the tags because they can scratch some surfaces. I also wash all the different weaves separately... and always use a LIQUID laundry detergent.

[@judymeldrum5903]

I love all those towels they worked great

[@angieineverettcust2934]

Yes I clean with microfiber. I use yours. Love them 😊

[@bibicheknauf4163]

LOVE, LOVE them❤️

[@lindakressh7222]

Love these! And the Maker’s Mop.

[@amlach6148]

I like the waffle weave for drying dishes and wiping the counters and I like the plush weave used slightly damp to clean my windows and mirrors. For dry dusting I either use a flannel or a fluffy dusting cloth made by “that company that started the microfiber cloth craze” What I don’t like about them is the traditional texture is like Velcro on my fingers and the lint doesn’t come out even if you rinse and wash them as directed by recommendation. And sometimes…for those really nasty jobs where you don’t want to ruin even your dollar store microfiber cloths…thank goodness we can fall back on good old paper towels 😀👍

[@JenniSchaffer]

Love all these cloths! ❤

[@nlanzoni52]

Thank you for this! I was just about to ask which one to use for what purpose.

[@JoJoSando]

I'm so glad you made the this video because I've wanted to clean with microfiber clothes but didn't know how to use them! Thank you so much! I would love if you created a video showing specifically how to use and wash them. 😊

[@cleanmyspace]

Check the description box of this video because we did link videos going over those 2 things!!! ❤

[@zubryta]

Use all the cloths mentioned since 2020. They are soo good. Recommend-recommend-recommend 🥰

[@pamelaflynn1129]

i clean with Maker's Clean microfiber and flour sack cloths from Wal-mart. I love the Maker's microfiber cloths, and some of their other items too. Great investment!!

[@sarahdebreto7452]

Microfiber is my favorite cleaning cloth, tho I use all the others too. I love my E cloths, i actually use the flat weave glass electronic cloths to dry my hair!

[@kathleenbeauchemin8146]

I 3:19 I love the waffle weave. They dry dishes amazing!!!

[@faithmindbodysoul2001]

Thank you for this video, I am clueless about the differences of microfiber cloths! Lol

[@Sunshine-wb9kk]

Yes, I use your microfiber cloths. I use the general & glass cloths the most.

[@melodyochs5458]

Love all your microfiber cloths! But thinking of buying more-good sale!

[@howward4071]

How do you get pet hair off of the cloth? I end up vacuuming the cloth and holding it down with my feet on the floor before I would feel comfortable putting it in the washer.

[@sunflowersammee1994]

Yes...everywhere. I hope to invest in your quality products asap. I clean residential and post construction jobs.

[@dyhrdmet]

I started using microfiber cloths last year when i bought my house (and i started caring more about cleaning). I still don't use it in enough places. The one place I use it the most is on my scanner glass. That's when I bought a 2-pack of yours (the green ones for glass and electronics). It works better there than the other microfiber cloths I used. And I need to be better using it elsewhere in my house.

[@dyhrdmet]

wow. i answered your questions before i even heard your questions.

[@paolasoltero53]

I use microfiber cloths I purchased on Amazon and I love them. I use them for restrooms counters. Spills, walls, dusting and pets. I don't feel comfortable using them in kitchen with grease or restrooms yet.

[@janetnewbill291]

I love the big yellow ones they are nice!! I have two!! Wash clothes I have to I share mine with my daughter and of course several the general cloths!! I don’t put mine in the dryer I have a rack!! I just ordered some yay!! Melissa can you tell me why when your cleaning a mirror why you get some streak with the mirror cloths!!I do the s pattern like you talk about?

[@lormor460]

Do you use these instead of dish cloths? Like washing dishes, as well? Right now I put both a dish cloth out for pans or dishes and use the microfiber clothes for everything else, surfaces, cabinets, etc

[@metanisha441]

I just discovered bamboo cleaning cloths and do not see a big difference to microfibre. The bamboo cloths perform soooo well! I only want to use these now since they are biodegradable (look out for those which really are 100% bamboo)

[@maggierose97]

Thanks! This sounds like a great idea. Better than microfiber.

[@andreagreen1467]

I feel like bamboo absorbs well but they definitely don't grab dirt as well as microfiber. I use both personally.

[@tammytriplett7546]

Which vacuum do you use or recommend? Thank you

[@smilesandbestwishes8597]

♡ I needed this reminder! I had set the grey waffleweaves aside and only recently pulled them out. I'm drying dishes with them right now now haha! ♡ Your cloths have been out performing any I had before!

[@majorcraz3CDM]

So for the bathroom if im using a disinfectent what can i use because i heard bleach messes up the microfiber . Would lysol work?

[@MarisaAndChew]

I dry dust the walls and the outside of the birds cage with microfiber cloths. Unfortunately I don't have yours as I've been waiting for mine to die but they're still ok. I use white vinegar and water to clean anything in the cage that's stuck on and they wash up great and instead of using an entire roll of paper towel I use one, maybe two, microfiber cloths. I rinse them out then launder straight away just BC I don't want that bacteria going in with my other cloths but it's literally been years (my oldest bird is 13) and I have no smells or nasty going! I highly recommend using them for basic pet care, esp if the animal is small and shouldn't be around cleaners!

[@mormob]

Hi Melissa. Just discovered your channel and have ordered your book! Have you any advice on how to clean pleated material conservatory blinds? Going to order your cloths too as you ship to the UK. Best wishes

[@VoodooAngel63]

I use microfiber all over the joint! I have 4 different bins of them. 1 is for cleaning bathroom fixtures, they're purple. The ones for the kitchen are pink. We have green for general cleaning. Then there are the dark gray ones that are OLD. These are in the yucky bin. They get used for the really icky stuff, like when the dog is sick. And since these are the first ones I got years ago, we can chuck those once we have used them.

[@connielehman7978]

I was buying the big package of microfiber cloths and thought they were great until I used your cloths. What a difference! The quality is amazing. I first used them on my shower door. Not only did they dry the door better, they kept it dry longer. I just ordered more and am looking forward to using the waffle cloth. Thanks Connie Lehman

[@toml.8210]

I use a waffle weave cloth to dry the car after washing or on a trip, after a rainstorm. It's a very thick waffle pattern.

[@heathercarroll7424]

Hello, I haven't watched this video yet but plan to. I recently found my new favorite dust liquid, Old English, and was wondering if it would behoove me to just throw my oily dust rag away after it has been used throughout the house or how do I wash it?

[@MNcntrygal]

Question, can I use a mesh laundry bag to put your cloths in with regular laundry?

[@anneoliva5861]

My flat weave cloth has two different textured sides. One is very flat and the other has a slight pattern. Does it matter which side of the cloth you use? Or, how do you use the different sides of the flat wave cloth?

[@janessakietzer9297]

Do these cloths stick to your fingers, like some cloths do if your hands are at all dry/rough?

[@TrainerInTraining]

Not sure if you respond to comments, but after how many uses should you launder the cloths?

[@cleanmyspace]

I wash mine after 3-4 ‘cycles’ (wet and dry). My flat weave for glasses and laptop way less.

[@TrainerInTraining]

@@cleanmyspace Thank you!

[@cupcakecanopy]

I'm a professional cleaner. A towel coth is the best cloth to use. Especially after multiple washes. I clean mirrors daily. Other clothes pick up fluff which they leave on things while you clean. I'm aiming for spotless and towelling is definitely the best cloth

[@howward4071]

Do you mean a cotton terry cloth towel?

[@Blankenshipable]

I’m not sure if I’ve been using the wrong microfiber cloths but they do leave lint and fiber particles behind 🤔

[@mandyraggatt3445]

Bit confused when to use wet or dry. When using an all purpose cloth for example on the kitchen benches. When spraying your all purpose spray then wiping is your cloth dry to start, damp or wet

[@CindyKilleffer]

@mandy raggatt My understanding is: when you dust you use it dry, but when you clean you use it wet. So if you use your benches a lot and they get messy (maybe from kids) you would use it wet/damp “sneezed” upon 😂 however, if you don’t use your bench often like at my house, I use it dry just to dust with it

[@annyg1757]

So we don't have to wash the cloths inside a mesh laundry bag? That's what I have been doing.🥴

[@valeriacocchi4875]

[@christinacline6069]

I bought these cloths over a year ago a d are absolutely terrified of using them and ruining them. I go through a pile of washcloths each week.

[@jylromain6439]

I have some inexpensive micro cloths and they do ok. Except for the one that feels like a fuzzy animal. LOL. I'm going to head over to your store and do some shopping. I don't think microfibers are "needy". How hard is it to toss them in the washer and hang them to dry? Easier than having nasty cotton hanging around. I enjoy your videos and have been subscribed for a while but I don't remember the last time KZbin notified me of a new video.

[@orangeblue3531]

Microfiber is great for cleaning dry dusty surfaces. But, I don't like microfibre when cleaning up wet surfaces because it gets streaky then you have to do more work wiping it dry with a separate dry cloth.

[@shreejadeja3127]

Do you ship to India?? I think it would be easier for everyone all around the world if your clothes are available on some global platform like Amazon. I really wish to try your clothes!

[@bettina1923]

I also use microfiber towels. However, the cheap ones. My problem is that it totally dries out my hands and my skin on my hands gets all rough and awful. So I'm only allowed to use the microfiber cloths with gloves. Is it different with your towels? Best regards from Switzerland.

[@Debhosking]

It's probably better that all of us wear gloves while we're cleaning. Protection for our nails, too.

[@eagercrafter_9014]

It would be great if you made a cloth with the numbers 1 through 8 on them...makes it so much easier to remember what side you've used....you can thank me for the idea (I can always use more microfiber clothes)...LOL

[@CindyKilleffer]

Great idea 💡

[@joycewright5386]

I bought some cheap microfiber cloths and they do nothing. They don’t absorb water, they just push it around. Is it because I paid next to nothing? I’ve never used them before.
