Shamwow Support Ticket
The worst mop I've ever used. Poor design of the wringing mechanism. Part of the plastic housing is broken, and I can't imagine why. Maybe it fell over when stood up to dry. A mop should be durable, and this one isn't!
I'd really like my money back.

Shamwow Consumer Complaint
The shamwow mop is the worst mop I've ever used. The design of the twisting/wringing mechanism is laughable. In addition to that, in less than a year, part of it broke. I have much older mops that are more durable. Bad design, bad product. I really would like my money back. More... (Online Shopping)
Shamwow Consumer Complaint
I got the Shamwow's as a stocking stuffer from my mother (we always laughed at the commercials) but when I actually tried them out they were more disappointing than anything. They're basically just a sheet of felt. That's it. I poured out a little bit of water... More... (Advertising, Commercials)
Shamwow Consumer Review
Ok with the Shamwow when you spill anything they say that with just about one touch and about two pats all of the water or what ever goes away! Well i got Shamwows for Christmas and was really excited! I went into my Bathroom a spilt water on the floor on purpose and instead... More... (Advertising, Commercials)

When your "rush" shipping did not come on time (for a specific, time-oriented event), I called to cancel the order entirely. Was told that would be no problem; only need to put "refused - return to sender" and send it back through the mail. Very helpful... More... (Online Shopping)
Shamwow Consumer Complaint
Please, if anyone has a mailing address for Shamwow, please let me know, as I am hoping to report them to the Better Business Bureau, but an address is required. And lo and behold, I do not find one on their site!

Shamwow Customer Feedback
I found the Shamwow mop material to be an excellent material. Unfortunately the mop handle and mounting hardware are weak and wobbly. The nut that holds the mop head to the handle broke the second time I used the mop. The plastic is just not tough enough to do the job. I would... More... (Online Shopping)

Shamwow Consumer Complaint
The shamwow mop is a rip off. It does not wring out as described, (I had to wring it out with my hands), it is very poorly made in that the mechanism does not function easily, and the mop itself is sewn together poorly and was splitting at the seems before I even tried to use...

I don't know why it doesn't work for me when it worked right before my eyes at the state fair, but I have tried using it according to the directions (washing it before using, but not drying) and today when I had a child wet my bed I thought I would avoid having to... More... (Online Shopping)
Shamwow Consumer Complaint
I admit it... as skeptical as I usually am, when I saw Shamwow at Costco I was weak and decided to give it a try. I'd like to say it sucks, but it really doesn't, at least not like it showed on TV. As far as I'm concerned, it does not work any better than a... More... (Online Shopping)

I have recieved two sham wow yellow toweletts from my son, They did not work for him, and the definately don't work for me. I used them on my Dodge Ram P/U. First one and then another dry one. The results were deplorable. All they did was smear the windows and leave... More... (Online Shopping)
Shamwow Consumer Complaint
Bought the 2-per set at Thunder in the Valley in May 2009. The guys did the usual cookie-cutter demo. We tried using one to dry the car; per the directions. All it did was push the water around. My terry towel did better than the Sham(for sure!) wow.
I then tried soaking up... More... (Online Shopping)

I was going to buy some. I have several "OTHER" types of these towels. I have to say that after reading to reviews on-line, I'm just going to go get some more " ABSORBER " towels. I have had several of them for more than 10 years. I have washed them in... More... (Online Shopping)
Some of the people writing are kind of stupid. I love how people take it out of the box and put it on a spil and wonder why it just spreads the liquid around. It says right in the directions IT WORKS BEST WHEN IT'S WET! You aren't supposed to use it dry, otherwise it doesn't work so great. Read people!
Anyway, I once had a mini flood in my house and more than half of my downstairs had about an inch of water covering the floors. My husband and I freaked out. We whipped out the shamwows and a bucket to carry the water, and in an hour my floors were completely dry. And what do you know, the majority of what was being picked up was by already moistened shamwow...doy. Thanks shamwow, you've been a lifesaver!
i just bought my stupid gf a scamwow for christmas she better get it and it better work exactly like the commercial or i am going to find that skinny white boy and bash his face in with that mop that comes in the mail... if they dont send it I am going to go buy a shamwow from the circus freaks and stick it up that fugly hooker beating maniac's ass!!! Phawk shamwow
It was raining hard when I went to the store. I purchased 'shamwow'. I was anxious to get home to try it on my very wet vehicle. I said to myself, Sham-Wow...it doesn't work. Didn't absorb the water at all. I had to go over it with a cloth I got from the dollar store. I am returning this wet sponge to the store. I would not recommend.
Rebecca was actually my grandmother's name. She would turn over in her grave to know how I've been treated. When I called, your phone help said she would credit my visa with $55.00, which is better than nothing, but you are still making money off me. I got the feeling that your complaint department is trained to do this, to keep people from having a fit or calling the Better Business Bureau. A huge box is too much trouble to send back, plus I would have to pay postage. My name is Joye Greenwalt. Don't ever try to mess with me again. You sent 5 sets when I ordered only one set (doubled) for $19.95 + shipping and handling. Did you think that "one set" sounded like "five sets"?? My bill was $149.50. I couldn't believe my eyes. That's one way for you to make more money than you deserve. Enjoy the money you made off me. I will be sure to pass the word around as to your wrong-doing. I hope you are able to sleep at night.
Do not even think about sending me any more shamwows, ever. You wrongly sent me 5 sets and that should last awhile, even giving some away. I ordered only one set for $19.95 plus shipping and handling. Have you trained your people to send more than was ordered, and then lie about the reason that so many were sent? Is this a scam? It's a good product, when used as directed, but I certainly will never trust you again. Tell your cute little guy who advertises for you on TV that customers might be receiving a huge box of shamwows that they never ordered. When I complained, she said she would deduct $55 from my visa bill. Too much trouble to send back, so I told her O.K. You've still made money off me, right? They say there's a fool born every minute. I believe it. It's me!
Got visa bill for $149.50. I had ordered one set (to be doubled) for !19.95 + handling. They sent five sets. Why? Is this a scam, to get more money? I called. She offered to credit my account for $55.00. Too much trouble to return so I'll keep, but I'm tempted to call Better Business Bureau. Shame on you!Double shame.
I purchased the yellow cloths @ Walmart several months ago, & was given a bunch of blue around the same time. After many uses & washes (& dryer spins) my experience is that the blue seem more fragile (a thinner material)but less likely to leave lint on glass. Actually, I have created some interesting uses for this product. I have 3 teenage boys, an aging in-law, 2 lg dogs, various pet wildlife, & of course my husband. I can assure you this product has been completely tested! It has been well worth the savings in papertowels, & less expensive than what I can buy "real" shammy cloths. Could some improvements be made? Maybe, yes, but all in all, I feel I've gotten more than my $'s worth.
To all of you dumb asses who say they don't work, maybe if you used it correctly you wouldn't have a problem with them. Just like a real raw hide shammy you have to wet it first. Real raw hide shammies are hard as a rock until you wet them and then they are a soft as a babies behind. If you don't want to pay shipping get them a walgreens, walmart, Target, Kmart basically anywhere. I got 8 small and 8 large from costco for $23 and they work great. Stop being so stupid people.
I got the sham wows and I had gotten some cheaper one and they don't soak up as much as they said they do but then I had read the consumer report and said they are not worth it and they are not worth the money. I hate to use paper towels use cotton ones for what you would use paper towels for.
The Sham Wow mop should be called Shame WOW!!! The metal pole the mop head is attached to is so flimsy that it broke while I was mopping and cut my hand in three places! It took 2 hours to stop the bleeding and might have had to have stitches if I had seeked medical treatment. The towels are good though. Mop would have been a good deal too had it not been made so cheap. Shame shame shame WOW!!!!
A lot of people seem to hate this thing because of billing problems. Just buy it in a store. I bought one at Pet Smart for 20 bucks. Anyway, I have to say, I am actually amazed. The thing does work pretty well for large quantities of water. I tried rolling a wet shirt with so-so results. I think it would be awesome for pet messes.
This product is a worthless piece of crap. i tried to wipe my dogs ass with it but it wouldn't work. I tried putting it in my pool to absorb all of the water but it didn't. I hate SHAMWOW.
Buy this product.
