Are these textured or smooth?

The bars themselves are smooth powder coated. The step areas have holes similar to a cheese grater to provide traction and a solid footing in rain, snow, slush, and ice. Have them on my '11 4Runner, love them. Only annoyance, is the step area does get a lot of snow and slush stuck on it while driving in the snow. But a little stomp with your foot will clear them off.

Not really. They aren't glossy or smooth though. they are just powder coated.

No, it is smooth. The grain embossed in the finish looks better than many covers though.

One side is textured and the other side smooth. They're great!!! Both sides grip really good. You won't be disappointed.

Smooth is not something I would associate with linen. In fact I do not dry mine in the dyer so they do have an even more textued feel.As Michelene mentions her friend from the Netherlands, I also have decades old linen sheets from my great, great grandparents from France. These are smoother than my recent purchases, I still like the feel of some texture and this keeps them cooler in the summer.

Yes they are smooth. I use them on my ceramic stove all the time with no problems.

They are smooth enough. Not perfect. But you certainly don't need to sand them down. Many are not very straight. But for fan handles, they would be adequate, unless you are a very picky person. You did not ask about sturdy. They are not extremely sturdy. Again: adequate, unless you want perfect.

They are cotton, however, they have a texture to them, not a smooth cotton feel. I embroidery on them as well and they look nice when completed.

They seem fairly smooth to me. Perhaps a little sanding here and there, but otherwise I could not catagorize them as "rough finished". Hope that helps :)

yes very smooth. My nephew has used them at the roller rink and on the black top.

lightly textured. Not smooth like older ones. Cooks eggs and toasts grilled cheese fine tho. However, I don't really like this, prefer my 8" t-fal! It's easier to get the spatula under whatever you're cooking.

They are smooth, not slippery. But I did feel the edges which was distracting. They never slipped on the keys. I got them because short, thin, sharp fingernails scratched the painted letters off my keyboard. After a few months, my nails dug holes in several of the stickers. Never had that problem when I could afford artificial gel nails.

I agree with the previous replies, they are neither shiny or dull. I would say they are brushed.

They are not soft. They are rough textured and provide an excellent gripping surface. You will not go wrong. Great value. Great grip

It isn't really textured at all. It's a smooth finish and it looks great. We've had it for two years and it runs very quietly. Highly recommended.
