Do the ends/seams come undone? I recently bought expensive kitchen towels and 2 of 3 came undone within 6 months (they were like 7 dollars each)

My ends have not come undone. I have washes them multiple times and they are holding up well and nice and absorbant.

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.

So far, mine have held up. Have washed maybe 5 times or so. I haven't had them for very long.

I have owned these towels for only a month, Serena, so I can't really give an opinion on their durability.

I have had these only a couple of months. I wash them often and have not had any problem with the seams or any other feature. I continue to enjoy these towels.

I wash in hot water (no bleach, just Tide) and dry thoroughly and have not had any noticeable shrinkage. GREAT stain release! These are not designer kitchen towels, they're the WORKHORSE of commercial kitchens and should be he same in yours.

I have 2 of these and when I washed them after a Boy Scout Camping trip, I took them to the local laundry mat to do the. My washer is a standard size and I wanted to use a super large capacity washer. After washing the one time, I didn't see any torn seams or loose stitching.

No. Like a previous replier, I buy multi-fold towels (I prefer the Scott brand). I put them into the dispenser with the brown wrapping still on, then before I close the dispenser, I slowly slip off the wrapping so that the towels stay intact. This is so that the towels stay folded within each other as you pull each one from the dispenser. Amazon has great prices for buying a lot at one time. But since I no longer buy regular paper towels in the store now, my family goes through each pack rather quickly.

I have washed mine multiple times and they are still soft and holding up. As soon as the dryer is done just fluff it up with your hands.

We just put them through the washer on stain cycle twice before we started using them and that worked for us. To me they didn't seem like the cotton prefolds that required multiple washings before they were absorbent.

I put them in the washer and have put them in the dryer and it doesn't seem to bother them. The only thing is that the edges pick up lint from the dryer. They are invincible!

When you first use them they do but if you wash them first its not as bad. After the 2nd wash the lint was virtually eliminated, at least it was for me.

Someone is pulling your leg !!!!! I can't believe you would really think to pay that price. I've have used them for many yrs and they are GREAT !!!! No need to use paper towels( less for the trash ), just put them in the soap with the other dishes. When they get holes in them, throw them away. I use to buy them at WAl-Mart and Miles Kimble,they don't sell them anymore, so I get them here . You will enjoy them.

Well.....pretty much. Sometimes the jumbo rolls are malformed a little bit and drag as you try and pull off the first few sheets. So honestly the jumbo rolls can hang up a little bit initially, but the quality of the towel holder makes it worth the little hassle. The only towels we buy are Costco brand jumbo rolls, and it handles those perfectly, aside from the initial few towels dragging a little bit. Also, make sure the holes at the ends of the tubes are fairly round and don't get crushed when installing the towels. We got the tricks down really quickly and love this towel holder. Hope that helps. Well.....pretty much. Sometimes the jumbo rolls are malformed a little bit and drag as you try and pull off the first few sheets.

yes - in fact i'm thinking of buying some new ones - I have used them for about 3 yrs and they're getting kind of dirty inside and i'm sure if i wash them - all the labeling will come off. Figure for the price, they've lasted a long time.

They have been for me. I don't use them every day, and they do need to be washed by hand, but I'm very happy with them after six months of use. They clean up like a dream.

Towels will still be dry after shower. Very decorative. Tough to wash. The shedding and the lint factor is annoying. I bought maroon, so I have maroon lint all over me after shower. I've had these towels for months and I constantly wash them hoping the lint will wash away. The wash cloths only lasted for a few washings, they shredded, had to throw them away. I use the hand towels for decoration, haven't washed them very much. My advice for wet towels is dry them by spreading them out on the towel rack and leave bathroom door open so towels can air dry.

Yes, I have washed mine twice. Just take the metal handles off them. I haven't seen any signs of shrinkage or seam failure.

Yes; I've now got three, and all but the newest one have been washed repeatedly. They've held up very well. And they dry very quickly, being nylon.

I have no trouble with my paper towels rolling loose. The roll seems to fit pretty snugly between the ends. I agree with the measurements from first person who replied.
