American Soft LinenChristmas Bath Towels Bathroom Set, 2 Packed Embroidered Decorative 100% Turkish Cotton Hand Bath Towels, Dish Towels for Decor Xmas, Tree-Deer

Update after 6 months:Colour is changing slowly.... Reduced one more star ... 3 stars nowI was not sure about this product.Lots of different ratings, o i decided to help other customers. After following instructions, I can say these deserve 4 stars immediately. They are soft and nice like the average ones. If price was like 20% cheaper I would have put 5 stars. And yeah not luxury hotel...If this changes with use I shall update this review.

I regret not taking a photo when I first pulled these out of the box, and perhaps a photo of the disappointment on my face when I took them out of the plastic bag that they were packaged in. They were thin, they were lifeless, and my initial impression was that they may have been manufactured from cardboard. I fell into a mild depression as I realized that the bulk of my order, the bath towels, and hand towels hadn't even been delivered yet, and I already had buyer's remorse.HOWEVER....that's right... keep reading!!They came with a nice little card that explained to wash them first, then tumble dry low. I washed them with a basic Tide pod, no fabric softer. That last part of those instructions had me a little confused though. My dryer has a setting that specifically says "Towels" and when I pressed that button, it automatically selects high heat. I decided to take a chance, and try something new. I chose a timed dry on low heat. No dryer sheets either.I came back later and opened the dryer to find the most beautiful, fluffy, and soft washcloths I have ever seen or touched!! I am so happy with these, and I'm super excited for the rest of my order to arrive :)

I bought these towels because I was desperate to find something both my boyfriend and I would like. I have very absorbent towels, but he always says they’re too scratchy. However, I always felt his towels were too plush and almost didn’t absorb any water at all. I bought these in hopes we’d find a compromise. I washed them first, like the directions stated, warm water, tumble dry low, no fabric softener or dryer sheets, separate from other items. I used one and thought, “Oh no! This is very absorbent! My boyfriend will probably think they aren’t soft enough!” (I am easy to please about softness.) He used one and I braced for impact....and....He LOVED them! He thought they were just the right amount of softness, and I didn’t think they were too plush. They are perfect. I have them in four colors. We replaced all of our towels with these. Good quality and have kept their bright colors after many washes. Would recommend to anyone and everyone.

These towels shed bits like they're throwing confetti, Even after several washes! When I dry my hair after a shower they leave bits in my hair that are hard to get out. And they are smaller than advertised. The 27x54 inch towel is actually 26x50 inch, and the 16x28 inch towel is actually 15x25 inch - may not sound much but it's surprising how much difference it makes.

I'm tired of stiff, thin towels so went shopping for something soft and thick and thankfully I found American Soft Linen. It is exactly that...soft and thick! The bright purple colour is perfect for my tastes. I have washed them a few times already and they still look brand new! I am very pleased!

Folks, let me tell you - my hubby is the last person to comment on such matters, his norm *a towel is a towel*. BUT now, every time he takes a shower, he comments on how wonderful these towels are! He dries off in no time, super absorbent and soft.I have read many of negative reviews on how they do not absorb - there is a simple trick on handling towels guys. I DO NOT put any fabric softener in the rinse cycle during the winter, because I dry them in the dryer (where I use dryer sheets). The dryer sheets makes them soft yet still super absorbent. In the summer, because I hang them out on the line, I will put just a smidgen of fabric softener. The more fabric softener you put, the less they absorb and the only thing you are left with is a fluffy towel that doesn't do what it's supposed to - SO, if you really have to, use the fabric softener sparingly as it repels water.I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Actually, I have purchased 4 more bath towels and 6 hand towels.
