I bought these because they are 100% cotton and contrary to what some reviewers have said, are VERY absorbent (perhaps they didn't wash the cloths before using). 100% cotton will wrinkle after washing/drying. If buyer is going for no wrinkles 1.) buy a synthetic mix and sacrifice absorbency, or 2.) take towels out while slightly damp, smooth with hands and hang them over railing. These towels are a great value. They DO look nice and ARE absorbent.
Nice set of towels! There are two textures in this 4 towel set. 2 flour sack type material and then 2 cotton/ terry absorption towels. I like the different patterns in the same color palette. I do not have a dishwasher so I use the cotton/terry ones to dry my dishes on the counter ( when I’m too lazy to hand dry) and they are very absorbent. I’ve washed these several times with my whites in hot water and bleach and the color has held fine. I got the “army” green color and the color matches the site image. Very happy with these.
The colors are gorgeous but these towels are not at all absorbent-- it's actually comical to see how terrible they are at picking up water. Too bad!
The majority of these towels are not the least bit absorbent. The only 2 that are worth anything are the terry ones. The others are a complete waste of money.
I wouldn't use these to get dirty but, more for presentation! These kitchen towels are of great quality but, they are too pretty to ruin with day-to-day shenanigans!
Beautiful and perfect. I am picky about our kitchen hand towels. These exceeded my wants particularly in being bigger than I expected. Love them!!!!
First of all...I ordered them to coordinate with my kitchen rugs & other accessories that are teal/liteblue/white. They appear to be sturdy and so far absorbent. The 2 solid teal towels I use as hand towels. The others for dishes. The first pic u can see they are the same length. Bright color. Nice. I took a photo and then put them in the wash B4 using them. Wow did they shrink! None of them came out the length they were at first. (2nd pic). But worse than that they are all a different length. See 3rd pic of them laying on top of each other on the counter. Wow.
The other thing is that only the 4 dish towels have the loops to hang them on a hook. The 2 solid ones dont. Those are the ones I wanted to have the hanging loops becuz I hang those on a hook. Not a huge deal. I mean so far I still like them. But a real disappointment in the shrinkage becuz the original length was wonderful. They are about 2 inches shorter after one cold water wash. Hopefully they won't shrink anymore. If they do I will have to come back and remove a couple of stars.
But right now, overall I like them. They look nice in my kitchen. And the color stayed really well after one wash. If u dont mind some shrinkage I recommend them.
Pretty towels, haven't used them yet, but, the color is a nice deep teal. They look fine as far as kitchen towels go.
