Does this towel bleed? Do you have to wash the towel separately in its own load each time you want to wash it?

Wash it alone right away first! I bought blue, washed it cold, and first time the water looked like dyeing easter eggs. The second time, there was only a little color bleed. mike

I've never used mine since I'm saving it for when the power goes out. However, it'll probably fit one bath towel in it. You probably should soak it for at least a half hour during the wash cycle to ensure it gets really clean.

I haven't. I only used it once so far but I didn't wash it the same day and when I fina got around to it, it came clean really easy. No staining.

I machine wash and dry them, and mine have never bled. I have almost all the colors, some of them since 2010! Even convenience/pharmacy and liquor stores where I live don't offer (free) bags, so these get a lot of constant use.

Yes. I have washed with a little bleach and it has been just fine. It is like a thick towel.

I haven't used it much but, I have washed it once. I wash it by itself on regular load and I dry it on cool to medium heat. It came out good for me.... Good luck!

I put it through regular warm cycle. Then I put it in the dryer for about 15 minutes. I don't wash with any other clothes, so have never had a bleeding problem. I like it very much, it does exacly what it says, absorbs the dirt and mud.

Yes. I run them in the delicate cycle. I love these towels. They're super light weight and although they feel really wet after drying yourself off, they dry out really fast when you hang them.

I have washed mine many times in residential and commercial machines and have had no problems with shrinking or bleeding. As a precaution I did wash it with only dark colors on the first wash.

I wash it on gentle cycle, alone in the washing machine. Then dry on low heat. It comes out looking brand new every time - :)

They may bleed a bit during the stamping, but as a disposable towel they should dry ok once. It all depends on how much of the towel you intend to stamp. If it's the whole section that would seem to me to negate the usefulness of the towel. If it's a tiny corner it shouldn't affect the usefulness, but again, it might bleed a bit. I haven't tried so I don't know. I personalized the holder and left the towels as they were.

No, it doesn't. It's like a thick towel. I wouldn't recommend this product.

I really an't help you. Mine has never gotten wet lucily so I don't know if it bleeds or not. Sorry!

Hi Troy, I have gotten it on beach towels numerous times when I was using it and it always came out in the wash. I did not pre-treat it with anything, so I would say that it does not stain. I'm surprised that one answer said that it did stain, I wonder what it stained and if it was on there for a long time. I think I had it on for several days, maybe 2 to 4 days and it still washed right out.

` This GREAT towel weighs exactly 19.6 oz. [ .56 kg ] and "feels heavy" after using smaller, lighter towels. I use it frequently for home but, would NOT take it in my backpack due to the weight. It is also bulky and takes up 13% of my 60 liter Osprey backpack. Nevertheless, it is very absorbent and nice to look at compared to cotton or blended towels. I know you were looking for a "quantitative answer" so, I just now weighed the towel with my fish/ luggage hanging scale that I also love for checking my backpack load. Hope this helps! Way to go Amazing-zon!! ~

No. It's very absorbent and relatively thin - especially when compared to a conventional towel. The surface does have some tooth to it though - it feels a little like a thick chamois cloth when it's dry. It is easy to wring it out and then if you hang it up it dries quickly.
