IPPINKA Nawrap Binchotan Dishcloth, Naturally Anti-Odor, Aqua X Charcoal

Great dishcloths that last a long time and don’t smell.

I picked this up on a whim and have been slowly replacing my kitchen wash cloths.Don’t let the slim packaging or formFactor fool you- this is a very absorbant washcloth. It will be firm when it arrives, but softens once wet. The best thing though- this doesn’t “attract smell”‘or hold smells the way that other fabric washcloths do. Which is just what I wanted.The packaging gives specific wash instructions, which I have never followed. I believe that if you followed the line dry instruction this would be a super durable wash cloth. Even with machine washing and drying, I have only had some fraying- but I’m also pretty Ward on my wash cloths.

I'm not sure why I was expecting two dishcloths, but it is only one reversible one. That being said, I think $10 is hefty for one dishcloth. Cons: It's not six-ply like the description says, it is easily snagged by serrated knives, the mesh fabric gets small particles like chia seeds or couscous stuck in it, and I have to remember to not put it in the dryer. Pros: It is very soft, it doesn't smell, it dries quickly, and I like the antibacterial claim.

This is my second Nawrap dishcloth, and I love it. My first one lasted almost 2 years of consistent use before developing holes. I hated to throw it away, so I made sure to order another in it's place. The dishcloth never has a foul odor. I toss it in the washer (no bleach) once a week; but NOT the dryer-otherwise it puckers up. Honestly, my original made an occasional accidental tumble through the dryer without any catastrophic effects, but I think it is not recommended because the heat weakens the fibers and shortens their lifespan. I used to buy cotton bar towels and use them as dishcloths, but they would get stained and look and smell nasty after a short while. I tossed them all and only use the Nawrap now.

Great dish cloth! When looking at the picture I thought 2 were in a pack, I should have read the description because I think it is on the pricey side for one. Fibers ripped a little (but only after real deep cleaning). Overall if it was priced less I would buy more because my counters seemed cleaner when I used this than with my normal disclothes (maybe because of the charcoal).

Tiring of nasty sponges and micro cloths that hold food particles, I tried one of these cloths -- liked it and bought another in a different color. I use one for people dishes and one for pet dishes. What I especially like is the one used for pet dishes cleans off the slimy stuff, but rinses well and doesn't stink or feel yukky after months of use. I just put a little dish soap on the cloth, clean up the dishes and then rinse very well in hot water and hang on the sink edge to dry. I see no need for putting them in the washer since the soap and hot water bath I give them seems adequate. They certainly don't stink and I use them every day for pet dishes and things I don't want to put in the dishwasher.

I used this to give my dining table a good wipe down. After I was done I noticed all these rips in it. For $10 I was hoping to last a little longer. I am sticking with my e-cloth.

I like the feel of this as a dishcloth, but that is about all. The appeal for me to purchase this was the anti-odor factor. However I find it to be no more anti odor than an ordinary dishcloth. As far at the anti bacteria feature - a spray bottle of vinegar water and a regular dish cloth or paper towel is a lot cheaper option.
