Mainstays Performance Textured Bath Towel, Black, 54 in x 30 in

Love these towels with the best value for the price. These are soft, and there's texture. They look expensive. They wash well, and stay soft after washing. The size is big enough for an ideal towel that you can wrap around your body after a shower. These are absorbent also. I will buy these again.

I wanted a lighter weight mostly cotton towel. I don't prefer large heavy towels due to the bulk when laundering them. The towel is soft and absorbs water just like a larger and heavier towel, but doesn't take up as much space in the laundry or the linen closet.

This amazing invention called a towel is multifaceted! You can dry yourself with it, you can use it as a blanket if you have an emergency shortage of blankets. You can clean your hands and face, or snuggle in it - dare I say you could throw it on a puddle if a damsel in distress needs to get out of a car. Yes, indeed this is a towel! INCREDIBLE WHAT THEY CAN DO THESE DAYS! Only $3.95 as well in these trying economic times - EGADS what a steal! Don't leave the universe without it you hoopy frood!

These are great for apartment living where my bathroom doesn't have a window. The are good after the shower and dry quickly. The only thing I found was that I ordered bath towels and hand towels and they are different color blues. The towels still work though. 🙂

I'm in the process of replacing really aged bath towels. I had purchased one of these because I already had the hand towels. This towel is huge and just as soft and absorbent as the hand towels are. I love it, so I purchased more. Bonus is these bath towels don't take up as much room in the linen closet as the old thick cotton ones do. I never liked the heavy thick cotton ones to wrap my long hair in after shampooing it felt like a huge weight. With these bath towels it is so easy and not too heavy.

Unfortunately, it seems like this line of towels is being phased out. I like these towels and the colors they come in. My whole bedroom and bathroom are decorated with the dusty rose or peach colored and mint green colors of towels, bathmats, comforters and rugs, so this upsets me.

I wanted more towels, but I didn't want to spend much. I found the Mainstays Performance Cotton Bath Towel was the least expensive towels around, and it was rated well, so I ordered one to check it out. Well, I've been using it for around three months, and I don't care for it. It's not soft, it's not absorbent, and while it's thin, it takes forever to dry when hung. When I use it to dry my hands, they don't get completely dry. I've had thin towels that dry fast, thicker towels that are more absorbent, but this towel is neither. It is, however, very well priced and the color is nice.

They instantly look like you poured a bottle of bleach on it after one load. I bought grey ones a while back and thought somehow I got something on them and was disappointed. I decided to give them a try in tan and after one wash it is literally covered in pink bleach looking spots. Super unhappy!

Don't buy these towels unless you're getting them for decoration. They are fine for decoration towels because the color is great; however, every piece of hair and lint gets stuck to them and when you dry off it leaves the lint on your skin and eye lashes. And you don't get dry, they just kinda push the water around. I ordered two of these (yellow and pink/coral) and will be returning both.

The towels are soft, but when you wash them they lose their color and they end up mottled looking; almost as if bleach were applied. I don't use bleach or a non chlorine bleach. The hand towels have huge areas on them where the color is gone from them.
