Little white hairs everywhere.Got white crap all over my clothes and body whenever I first dried off. Now it's over everything.You're not only spending money for the product, but to inflict pain on yourself for having to clean up after it.
1So fluffy and soft!I received an Amazon gift card for Christmas and I decided to use it on some nice luxury bath towels (since I wouldn't normally purchase them myself).I decided on these because they had a lot of positive reviews. They were delivered right to my door step from Amazon and I was immediately impressed when I opened the package.After opening, I washed these in cold water on the gentle cycle with Simply Tide, and dried on low heat with a couple of downy dryer sheets (no excessive lint like other reviewers have posted). I folded and put away in my linen closet and the quality is immediately visible compared to my old towels. Three of these towels vs 3 hands towels AND 3 bath towels.
5Excellent towels; lots o' lint!OK, I get why everyone is upset about the lint thing. For the first 6-8 weeks, these things left lint like a joke. I would wipe the steam off the mirror when I got out of the shower, and it would leave a solid layer of lint. Then, after I shaved, I would have so much lint on my face that I looked like Santa Clause! When we ran them through the drier, there was more lint than the trap could hold, and I was a little worried about a fire.But we have been buying these thick, absorbent, luxury hotel towels for years, and this just seems to be a package deal.I'm not sure why, but the thick, absorbent, and reasonably priced ones always seem to start out this way. If it bothers you that much and you're not an environmentalist, you could just wash them about 20 times before using them...
4equivalent to a nice hotel or spa qualityOrdered 12 Luxury Hotel & Spa bath towels as well as matching (same brand) 24 face towels, 6 hand towels, and 2 bath mats (44 total towels) on Thursday evening and they arrived on Saturday right before Christmas. They didn't have any off smells upon arrival and were soft. I split the laundry into 3 loads using 2 cups of white vinegar (generic brand) for each load and didn't use dryer sheets. They came out even softer out of the dryer; equivalent to a nice hotel or spa quality.Here's some pics. I included an iron in one so you can put into context how thick the towels are. Also, as you can see, there were very minimal loose strands that had to be snipped after cleaning all the towels. Lastly, there was a small palm-sized amount of lint in the dryer's lint screen after every load, which was expected.I'm very happy with the purchase. The quality, price, and timeliness of delivery deserves 5 stars.
5After a year of frequent washing, they are still looking new.I have the bath towels, the hand towels and bath mats and washcloth from the same brand. Absolutely zero issues after 1 year of frequent wash.
5You get what you pay for....These should not be marketed as luxury towels. They are extremely, extremely thin and not plush at all. Very light-weight and are more suitable as hair towels in a salon, given how thin they are. I dropped them off at the local UPS to return them within an hour of receiving them.
1Great Towel, Outstanding Value 4.5 StarsI ordered these towels and an Amazon house brand Pinzon Egyptian Cotton 625 gram weight towel set at the same time. I was very pleased with both products. This towel is slightly softer, and a little heavier/thicker than the 625 gram Pinzon. While both towels are the same length the Pinzon is 4 inches wider. The Pinzon is made in Pakistan and the this towel is made in Turkey a country known for terrycloth robes and towels. Is this this heaviest, softest, nicest towel I have ever seen. No. If you visit a high end department store, you can find a thicker, softer towel, by a designer name that is better but it will cost you well over twenty dollars a towel, twice the price of these. These towels are a superb value at $10.00 each. This towel be as good or better as any towel you will find in the $15.00 to $20.00 range at Target, Lands End, and the like. I am at a loss to explain the handful of one and two star reviews for this product. If I had to give category grades I would say Softness A, Weight A, Size B+/A-, Value A+. I would order this product again without hesitation.
4Thumbs down.I will preface this by saying I am extremely picky about my towels. I purchased the set of 4 in plum. Color WAS nice, until it started fading after a few washes. They also shrunk about an inch after the first wash and lost their shape - they're already small to begin with. Onwards I go to find a new set of towels I actually like!
2Very disappointed !Very disappointed as I got absolutely different dark ^ ugly colors I never ordered.Look what I ordered and the result is on the photo!Real disappointed!Will return these ugly color towels back.
1Very nice towels for a good price.These are very nice and heavy towels. They dry excellent and are very soft. I purchased eight of them and washed them all together. In the future if / when I purchase more I will be sure to lessen the load. These towels had an excessive amount of lint and fuzz coming out of the dry cycle. Since then they seem to wash nicely. Everybody in my household fights over the new towels!Update a year later! (12/23/2015)These towels still remain intact and absorb water and dry nicely! I ordered another eight towels, and our year old towels are definitely not as "fluffy" as the new ones, but that is to be expected and are still fantastic towels. Highly recommend these towels for getting as close as you can to a "hotel quality" towel. Love them!
