I've never tried those, but I'm getting excellent results with some microfiber cloth wipes I got at Walmart. The bundle of 8 was about $5 and I have only used 2 so far (the first one for about 3 weeks, and then it went into the laundry and I'm using a second one now).
I always have a rag or 2 in the area so what I do is use a normal rag (dishtowel or barmop, less than $1 each) to wet and wipe and then follow with the microfiber towel to finish. Doing this I am holding one in each hand so it's a very natural motion. I wipe clean and polish my machine after every session and including my brush and clearwater backflush it takes less than 2 minutes (last timed at 1m 38s).
The bonus is no chemicals or smell in my coffee area....
