    We have had a few Sham wows for about three years and I can tell you they do work. Two things about this video that I noticed that would not allow the sham wow to work right. First, the towel has to be dampened first. Second, they were trying to scrub the floor and not just place the towel over the spill, then press. If they use the towel like the commercial demonstrates, it will work, at least they always do for us.

    it does work. We've used it for years. You need to get it wet, and wring it out first - then it really sucks up liquid. They are putting the dry shammy on the wet liquid. Just get it wet and set it on the liquid and press.

    My Dad has been a pitchman for 40 years. He used to pitch this item.
    When you watch ALL pitchmen with this item they ALL tell you to use it DAMP.
    Just like a mop. When you ever put a dry mop on the floor same thing happens. Get it completely wet first. Then wring it out until it is DAMP.
    The biggest complaint is people do not listen. Proven fact.
    My dad has pitchmen friends who started pitching this item over 30 years ago and they are still pitching it.

    My dad went onto many other gadgets over the years after pitching this item.

    They are doing it wrong though. I don't remember Vince scrubbing anything. Also when he put it in the bowl of water he compressed it then let it go so it soaked it up. And at least you can reuse the sham-wow for 10 years. Imagine buying paper towels every week for ten years. Yeah, this seems like a way to get people to keep buying paper towels and wasting their money. Just Saying.
