Zorbeez

Zorbeez is a cloth which is claimed by manufacturer Vertical Branding to be capable of absorbing over 20 fluid oz. of liquid.[1][2] However, it has often been tested with mixed results.[3][4] In March 2009, Popular Mechanics tested Zorbeez against competitor ShamWow, and Zorbeez was found to be inferior.[5] Mainly marketed on television, Zorbeez was represented by TV personality Billy Mays.[6] WFLX's Deal or Dud segment tested the Zorbeez, and they called it a "Deal".[7]
