There is a customer image that shows an incredible amount of dryer lint from these towels. Is everyone experiencing this problem?

Yes, they are terrible! I've had them for over a year and still get a ton of lint from the lint filter. I would never buy them again!

My husband's got black spots, I suspect some kind of mold/mildew. Washing machine didn't take out the spots. Maybe you need to leave the lid off the container until the towel is dry?

The towels are extremely absorbant despite the very tight weave. These are the best towels I have ever bought, anywhere, and I am 76 years old, so I have bought a few towels in my life. They DO take a little longer to dry than less tightly woven towels, but in my opinion, it is well worth the weight to have towels that are so cheaply made you can almost see through them! I bought these when the NOT inexpensive set of towels I purchased from JC Penney were so sleazy I returned them with a letter about exactly what I think of the poor quality of their merchandise in the past several years. One used to be able to count on JCP for quality merchandise, but sadly, this is no longer true. I was delighted to find the Pinzon towels. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that they are NOT made in China...... :)

Yes they are. I hang dry mine, though, because I use them to make coconut milk and don't want any dryer lint sticking to them..

I use bleach regularly and they are great. I don't use fabric softener in the washing machine but I do use a dryer sheet. The towels are terrific and they haven't degraded at all.

All textiles will give off lint in the dryer. These are better than most, so I would say no.

I have washed mine, but I would not suggest putting them in the dryer (duh).

I haven't noticed any lint. You can always put it in the washer by itself to prevent lint, and throw in a couple of dryer sheets.

I've washed mine over 10 times and they are still in very nice condition. They are thick, soft and absorbent. I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of these towels for the price. I would recommend them without hesitation.

No. These towels have gone through lots of use and laundering and are holding up beautifully. However-I dry them on my drying rack to prevent more shrinking. Since I have 13 towels, I don't miss the 3 or 4 that are drying.

No, not at all. I washed my newest set before using them for the first time & they did great. I have a set that I've had for about 12 years now that are still perfect.

Yes. Mine get covered in lint/fuzz and I have wiped them with a damp cloth to remove fuzz/refresh adhesive. After one or two times of this, they need to be replaced.

IIRC, there's a lint filter that you'd have to manually empty after the wash.

I haven't had these very long but have washed them a few time. They have not pilled or had much lint. Hope that helps.

It's your fabric softner. When you wash your clothes next time, add 1/2 cup of vinegar in place of liquid fabric softner. You might have to do this a few times. I had this problem mostly with bathroom towels because I love them soft and fluffy, but the problem was too much of a build up on them. The vinegar will also wash your washer of any buildup. Good luck!

I don't know, but I would not buy these towels again. They are very heavy and not absorbent. We are no longer using them.

All of the dark linens, regardless of brand, will more easily show lint and such than lighter colors. This would be expected. This particular brand shows much less than others because of the high quality fibers. At any rate, if a perfect and pristeen appearance is required, a lint roller brush and about 10 to 15 seconds of your time will take care of the issue. ; )
