Consumer Reports Gets Its Snark On

Consumer Reports is having a lot of fun these days with its online video product reviews. So much so the staid organization is…OMG…copping a ‘tude. In it’s latest video, Teresa Pinetta examines claims made by ShamWow, a rag-like product that’s supposed to whole 20 times its weight in water. In other words, it’s the Super Sponge.

Sadly for ShamWow, that’s really not the case. CR determined the product holds no more than a typical sponge which costs exponentialy less than a ShamWow.

“It’s like a rag!” “Make up your mind, ShamWow!” “So…this work…as opposed to this work…is twice as hard. Gotcha.” “Or you could splurge on another ShamWow.” You go girl!
