I love these Swedish dishcloths from "A"

I have yellow as pictured, but other colors are available. They are kind of "sponge-y crispy" feeling (don't know how to describe it) but are soft when you wet them. Plus they are machine washable (says up to 50 times, but package says x 100), either in washer or dishwasher:

𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗬 𝗘𝗙𝗙𝗘𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗩𝗘 𝗖𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚 - 10 Pack Yellow Cloths (8 x 7”). Our dishwashing cloths have the functionality of a cellulose sponge with the durability of up to 15 rolls of paper towels. More versatile than a microfibre cleaning cloth, they are perfect for wiping surfaces, washing dishes and mopping up spills as well as using for the bathroom, pets, car, garden and office. Super absorbent, absorbing 20 times more liquid than its weight! Fast-drying, no more smelly odor
𝟭𝟬𝟬% 𝗕𝗜𝗢𝗗𝗘𝗚𝗥𝗔𝗗𝗔𝗕𝗟𝗘 & kind to the environment. No chemicals, no landfill. Made from natural, sustainable materials, 30% cotton, 70% cellulose wood pulp and compostable, our kitchen wash cloths are perfect for both your home and the planet.

Oh, these look very interesting. I am going to go find them and put on my wish list so I remember to try them. Thanks for mentioning the product and where you find them.

@Bridgegal. I use SWEDEcloths, wood pulp and cotton cloths. They are soft, rinse out completely never leaving a smell and have many great prints, they're very cheerful. Just looked on their site and had no idea they are made in Colorado

I use pop up sponges from trader joes and a scrub mommy. I have paper towels, but I rarely use them for cleaning.

I have never used sponges. I am never convinced they get really clean down in them. We buy HandiWipes in bulk, cut them in half, and put a new one out every night and throw the old one in the trash.

I have also used the Swedish dish cloths, paper towels (the Bounty ones that you can tear in half--I love those!), and even my hand to wash some things. Dawn or I prefer Williams Sonoma Dish Soap (fantastic on sale!), and lots of Clorox and other spray disinfectant.

We load and run the dishwasher every night even if not full and we can put sink racks in. We also love the small round sink brushes that go in a ceramic container with water and soap in the bottom (Amazon Full Circle Bubble Up set--we use many times a day).

I cut up chickens in the laundry room sink also then clean and spray it down like crazy!

I use old fashioned dish cloths, that go in washer and dryer. Some I have are over 20 years old, wear like iron, some double sided with a more soft side and a more abrasive side.
