Of course I buy this stuff

A man recently asked me, “So how much of this stuff [Grommets] do you buy?”  I couldn’t tell if he meant it as a challenge.  No matter.  It’s an easy answer: “A lot!”  I really believe in these products.   And we don’t get to keep many of our test samples….they end up being either consumed, given away for testing by non-team members, or stored in our archives.  (I envision the Museum of Grommet, seriously, some day.)

So I go on our site and buy Grommets, just like everyone else.

Case in point.  Last week I used the E-Cloth to do two jobs I avoid.  Cleaning stainless steel (don’t like the greasy sprays) and cleaning windows (always a production).  I especially avoid washing my chandelier.  I like to keep it sparkling.  But the reality is I get to clean it about twice a year.  The E-Cloth cut the time for the job in half by letting me just wipe and polish, rather than soap, scrub and dry.  Hooray.  I documented the results.

All sparkly, in no time, using the E-cloth. This is a chandelier I designed, along with Chris Denison of Light Impressions Glasscrafters. It was inspired by a design by restaurant designer Adam Tihany.

Encouraged, I actually swooped over to clean our pretty disgusting front door.

I didn’t think to take photos, but I was probably even more impressed with the effectiveness of the E-Cloth stainless steel cloth.  It’s now always close at hand in my kitchen.

So, the E-Cloth is particularly easy to demo in a blog post.  But I do really take many, many Grommets into my life.  I want to support these companies and they are truly special products.  I told my husband I wanted to give mainly Grommets for Christmas and mused, “Is that somehow cheating?”  (i.e. not working hard enough to find a gift).  He roared laughing….given the amount of work our team puts into selecting Grommets…these will be the most labored-over gifts we’ve ever given.
