Mainstays Performance Cotton Hand Towel, Super Soft Quick Dry Fade Resistant, Solid White

I bought these to match bath towels I previously purchased. I wanted to buy them at the same time, but Walmart - in their infinite wisdom (desire to get people in the store probably) did not have them available for shipping. (I mean why have bath towels available, but not the matching hand towels?) Anyway, when they became available for shipping, I snagged them! (BTW - neither the hand towels nor bath towels were actually shipped - they were delivered directly from the store.) The towels are soft, absorbent but dry quickly. Color doesn't fade and they don't pill. Am enjoying using them!

I bought the bath towels. I didn't see any hand towels or washcloths to match but they popped up one day a couple months later and I had to buy the washcloths and hand towels to match I haven't been to the laundromat yet but I can't wait to wash them and use them.

I was curious about the difference between the “Performance” Mainstay towels and the regular Mainstay towels, so I did a little comparison. Performance has slightly more material, the color is richer (in black, anyway), and it's a bit softer (at least before 1, 10, or 50 wash cycles). I think either will work great, and that the standard is a better value, and the Performance is indeed, slightly more premium. I hope this helps others curious shoppers purchasing online.

I needed something for the color to go with other fall colors in the guest bathroom. I did not need these ones to use as towels more of a color. These are super thin for towels and probably not hold up in many washes. However, they were perfect for the color and for the cost you cannot beat it.

Good for the price! Better quality and thickness when compared to most budget brands. Okay for every day use. Color is very nice shade of green, i have washed once in cold water and it didnt fade on other items. Only time will tell how well the color holds but i am sure the boys will stain it up much quicker than it looses its color.

So far I like them. I washed them and they feel soft, fluffy and feel like new even tho I have hard water where I live. They are a great size for hands or face. The color choices are great. I hope they stay like this after several washings. I bought this same towel yesterday at my local Walmart as I think these will last a long time. Thank you Walmart !

This review is for the "Mainstays Performance Solid Hand Towel, 16" x 26" Comparing the present price of the hand towel to the bath towel there is only a dollar difference in price. (Bath towel: $3.97, Hand Towel: $2.97) Considering you get twice as much material in the bath towel, leads me to believe the Hand towels are OVERPRICED> However, there is another bad issue with these hand towels. Both ends of the hand towel do not have a DOBBY BORDER. So what is a dobby border? It is the woven stripe near both ends of the towel. It is not there for decoration, but serves an important purpose. It helps the towel keep its shape through use and many launderings. Without that woven stripe your towel may develop an out of square shape. YUCK !! It is a QUALITY ISSUE ! The manufacturer CHEAPED out and Walmart let them. Otherwise, a fair product could be a much better VAUE if it was made to a better standard. The material feels soft. The colors are nice. BUT CUSTOMERS DESERVE BETTER !!

The towel is thick and soft, but it needs to be washed separately once or twice before adding it to other laundry. It shed considerably the first two times I washed it, causing me to have to pick little green fluff off my other items. As long as you are aware of this problem, the towel performs just fine.

This towel is extremely thin and not absorbent. There isn't plush/softness to this towel. With that said, it would be ok to send to school for the locker room or even send off to college and you won't get upset if it doesn't make its way back home.

I cant really give a review because I never actually received this order!!! It was delivered to the wrong location and there is even a picture to prove that but Walmart refused to give me a refund or a replacement so I'm not happy with this company and I decided to boycott Walmart all together because of their predatory business practices!!!!
