Possibly like others, I'm the sort of person who, when looking for something on Amazon, I'll buy the item which has the most reviews, thinking you can't go wrong with something that's clearly pleased thousands of others above a plethora of other options. And, thus, I hardly ever check said reviews. Seeing that the product(s) have more reviews than any other listed item is enough to sell me on it.It's sometimes only after I've placed my order & it's possibly even shipped that I bother to check what people are saying about the item, just out of curiosity. Which is what I did with the towels & washcloths I ordered here. And I panicked when I saw all the negative reviews about the extreme amounts of lint these items produce in washers, dryers, & upon other items, as well as the people using them. It was discerning to read that people were even having to empty their lint traps multiple times during a cycle due to it. Or, that they were having to clean out their washers, because it was stuck everywhere inside.But I couldn't cancel my order because they were already on their way to me by this point. So I said I'd give them a shot. Wash them, dry them, & try them. If I was unhappy, I'd simply return them & start looking elsewhere.I'm glad I didn't just immediately return them as soon as the box arrived. I might be one of few, but these towels & washcloths have caused me 0 issues. I don't know that it matters, but for reference, we have a Maytag 3000 Series matching set of washer & dryer. In terms of water: we have well water without a water softener, but we of course have a filter. So, the water could make a difference. Ours doesn't have a bunch of chemicals like fluoride & chlorine, unlike city water.When I washed them (on their own, I might add, since I was already paranoid about a mess—didn't want to be picking lint off clothing later if I could avoid it; I have enough on my plate), I put in only Tide Original liquid detergent. No fabric softener, no scent beads. Nothing fancy. Once the cycle was done, there was thankfully no lint in the washer. So, I then put everything into the dryer, forgoing including a dryer sheet.(You might wonder why I used only the detergent when washing. I read reviews on here, & in an article that when you get new towels & do your first wash or two, to not use fabric softener or dryer sheets, as it can make the issue of lint worse.)I checked the lint trap three times during the drying cycle, as I was afraid that it'd get full multiple times as the dryer ran. Instead, it was full about three-fourths of the way through, so I emptied it. When I went to retrieve the laundry about 15 minutes later once it was done, the trap was still empty.I did include a picture of how much lint my dryer collected during the cycle, with the base of a wire hanger underneath for reference. In terms of how thick the lint was, I'd say it's about how much our dryer accumulates after perhaps 2 cycles. So not bad at all. And you have to remember that these items are brand new. Something is going to come off.Then came the big test: time to shake out a towel & a washcloth, & see how much of a mess they make. So I opened our back door & stepped out, as I didn't want it all over the laundry room, & I shook a towel first, then a washcloth, as hard as I could. And I was shocked! Only a couple tiny strings came off the towel. That's it. No lint from either. No strings even from the washcloth.So I'm pleased in there being 0 mess.I did, a couple days later, have enough laundry to do another load. So, I put another towel & washcloth in, & used fabric softener this time, as well as a dryer sheet in the dryer. Once again, no problems. No lint.Onto size: I've also seen reviews of people complaining that either in the packaging or after washing & drying, the towels are/become flat. I didn't experience that. I've included pictures of the towels & washcloths both measured & compared to ones we've been using. For the washcloth: the grey one lying next to the white one I bought is one of my favorite washcloths that we have. I actually thought it was large, compared to many of our other ones! Imagine my surprise.Finally, I came to the most important test: how do they hold up when being used for their actual purposes? The washcloth was just fine in the shower. It cleaned me like it was supposed to & suds-upped easily, without any lint getting all over. The towel dried me just as well as our old ones, & no lint ended up all over the floor or shower.All in all, I have no reason to be upset with my purchases. I know they're pricey, but I feel they were worth it. I was actually thinking of—so long as I liked the towels—ordering another set or two. Due to how large they are, however, I don't think they'd even fit where I'd need them to (this is not a complaint)! Same for the washcloths. I ordered 5 packs, which would give me 20, but I then looked & found another color or two that I'd like to have, but due to how fluffy they are, I don't know that they'd all fit in the bin I intend to get from Target to place them all in.I won't say that if you're skeptical to just buy them & that you won't be regretful. You could end up like the others that have dealt with the horrible lint problem. But, remember if you take a chance on them, that Amazon has a good return policy (imo). So you can always send them back & get a refund.I'm just glad I won't have to go through that hassle & that they've worked out how I hoped they would! When I need new towels/washcloths in the future, so long as this listing is still up, it's the first place I'll look to buy from.

I recently purchased these and the matching face clothes for our guest bathroom. They have only been washed and dried once, so will have to see over time how well they hold up. They are a nice size and seem to be a good weight, not too heavy or thin. There was not much lint considering it a first washing. I like the look with the striping in the material. Just jazzes it up a bit. The color is the perfect gray with no purple tint. The sale price made them a good choice. Not sure I would have bought them at the higher price online without physically seeing them. So glad I did! The best part is made in the USA!! Thats a win!!

I read tons of reviews for at least a dozen brands. None stood out, every brand had the same complaints: loose threads, loose seams, not absorbent, not soft enough, not thick enough, colors bleed. So I chose one that wouldn’t break the bank because I needed a lot of towels. I purchased 4 6-packs in 4 different colors and 2 bath sheets that matched 2 of the sets. Most of the towels did have loose threads. On some, I only found one, some had multiple. I always thought that was normal so I just snipped them off. All of the seams appear to be intact. I’ll keep an eye on them as they get used and washed. They were decently soft right out of the bag, were softer after a wash cycle. I washed each color separately with cold water, All Free & Clear detergent and white vinegar in the softener dispenser. I noticed no color bleed or weird patches of discoloration. They do a good job of absorbing water but I understand why people say they don’t. When I’m drying off after my shower, the towel immediately feels wet, so where the towel is against my skin, I feel wet. That’s my theory anyways, because I don’t still feel as though I just stepped out of the shower when I’m done. The towel feeling wet and me feeling dry tells me they absorb just fine. They really aren’t super thick, which is honestly why these are only getting 4 stars. I really love a thick fluffy towel. Although I’m satisfied with the purchase overall, I don’t think I’d buy them again.

Start by saying this: if I dont give you the crispiest, whitest, most clean towel at my home or place of business, there’s a problem, and I’ll give your mo he back. These are pretty crispy. No shedding, no shredding, overall, *good*, almost great.I gave 4 stars only because there’s a slight dingy color (not seen individually) but when I took the pic next to my pristine other towels. I’m letting it slide because, I’m a perfectionist and my other towels are electric white and pristine - aka I think that dinge will go away. I will report back after more washes.Update: the dingy is gone. Updated to 5 stars and will report back soonUpdate again (6/29): love them. Larger folks *may* say they could be a *smidge* on the smaller side, but that's if you're really, really trying to give it hell - hint, you're not. These are really quite nice. and I am happy with the price because I chuck them out the minute they get "weird". I'm happy when I get out of the bath and see them there neatly folded, it's a small treat. I've also been happy handing them out to my guests. A great buy!

WOW! This was the fastest delivery of any item I've ever ordered from Amazon. Ordered it at 12:12pm today and it arrived at 2:43pm! We have an Amazon Fulfillment Center and Amazon Distribution Center in our city so they must keep stock of these in their regular rotation. That, and the good reviews, tells me they are super popular with customers. This is my second order after the first set of 4 bath towels I purchased just a few days ago. We love them so much we had to get more!If you have sensitive skin syndrome (SSS), or just enjoy the feel of natural fabrics against your skin, you'll appreciate the feel of REAL cotton. We highly recommend this product!
