Great towels, especially for the Pacific Northwest

We live in the Pacific Northwest and these towels are the best. They are soft and absorbent and large enough to dry a person completely (5' 7" to 6' and 130 to 185 lbs.) and I have hair past my shoulders, if that gives you an idea of the towel's absorbency. It dries quickly and does not get a moldy smell, even in damp cool environments. We love these towels and we were skeptical at first because we love thick cotton towels but we are converts!

This is great value for a set of six towels. These towels are nice and thick, but still manage to dry fairly quickly. They are able to remain fluffy after each wash, even though a fair bit of lint did come off the first time I washed them. The color is true to the picture, but I would shy away from the red towels since they will get red lint everywhere in the wash, which can be annoying to deal with. I like the grey set and they have held up well since my purchase in June.

I really am glad I chose these towels. They did shrink a bit but not a problem. We use a lot of hand towels instead of paper towels and these are taking all that washing very well.

These towels are very soft and absorbent. I love that the bamboo fiber is a greener option, but on top of that I like these towels far more than the premium cotton ones they replaced.

I have the black towels, and despite being washed in cold water they have faded slightly so they have more of a very dark blue appearance. This has zero effect on the utility of the towel and I suspect you'd never notice at all on the lighter colors.

And I'd recommend washing them before the first use to get rid of the lint and stray fibers.

These towels are incredible. Used them on a 2-week camping trip and they were indispensable. Soft, quick to dry, and very absorbent. Took up no space in bag, which was critical, since everything I packed had to fit in a single bag for 2 weeks.

These are very nice towels.  Not too thick or too thin.  They are on the thin side but that's fine with me because they dry quickly.  I've ordered two sets a couple of months apart.  The towel designs were different for each order - a good thing as I did not need matching sets.  The downside is that one towel in each order had a pull or snag - and they were 2" shorter than stated.  These were minor issues for me.

I bought one for my son, Then his girlfriend. Now I bought one for me! You could easily say I like these.

No they aren't 100 dollar towels. But they are very nice and they don't cost 100 dollars! Oh and I'm not small at all. These go around me!

A previous reviewer expressed a lot of disappointment with these towels, but they're actually really nice. They are not your fluffy American towels, but instead are thin yet super-absorbant, with little waffle-like chambers to soak up the drops. The bath towels are generously sized, almost bath-sheet sized. The hand towel is large, too.

I love these towels. They are great for boating, beaching, hot tubbing, or whatever you need a towel for. Quick drying and very colorful. I get complements everywhere I go with these. I give them to all my friends for gifts. They are so user friendly because they pack up so small and dry out very quickly. Say goodbye to huge bulky towels!

I bought these towels for my son to take to camp. They are great - good quality, colorful and pretty plush considering the relatively inexpensive cost.

These towels are so soft! They're microfiber with quality stitching. The hanging straps are great and hold the weight of the wet towel well. Both towels fit easily inside the case and are lightweight. I love that the case is mesh for extra drying, and so your towel won't stink. These work great as sports and fitness towels. Traveling with them is a breeze, they don't weigh you down, and are great for hiking and camping. The large one is towel sized and the smaller one is wash cloth sized making it easy to dry off after a jump in a river, or just wipe your brow. Even great for washing and drying camping dishes. The one thing I really love is how easy it fits back into its carrying case! You can fold them almost any way and they fit right back in! I noticed another reviewer said that they have a chemical smell. Mine don't smell at all! Even upon receiving them they had no smell, and I was pregnant at the time, so my nose was on high alert.

I slowly switched all our towels over to microfiber, both these and the waffle weave. I love them because they dry my body nicely and they dry out in plenty of time for the next use, unlike the thick cotton towels we used to use. But I especially love that they don't take up the entire linen closet! I only wish they came in more colors and were finished more nicely on the edges.

Great towels! I wanted a towel to take to the gym and a "traditional" bath towel is too big and bulky. I got the towels this morning, gave them a fast hand wash to remove the lint, and they dried quickly. They can absorb quite a bit of water! I gave them a quick test drying my hands and face after a washup. Excellent.

I like them so much, I'm seriously considering getting another, maybe bigger, set as my everyday towels. It's the little things: there's a tab to hang them, there's no "little loops and nubbies" to get snags, they absorb a lot of water, they dry fast, and they won't take up a lot of space in my small bathroom. I'm tired of "traditional" towels that are more decorative than useful.

Then it hit me: this towel is the perfect size to cover the back seat of my car when I travel with the dog (FIAT 500 and a Pomeranian). The 20X54 fits perfectly, it looks good, and it's the right kind of fabric for dog hair (tight weave, low texture).

I really like the simple design and color (3 choices) of these towels. They are absorbent, lint-free, soft and well priced. I highly recommend The Homemakers Dish products. I will be ordering more items from them.

The towels appear really well made, and after several uses seem to be very absorbent, very comfortable. They are also attractive. My wife and I found them great for personal, day to day use. We still offer our guests good-quality, traditional cotton towels. This is because microfiber towels feel different and take some getting used to. Again, they are really absorbent, dry quickly (low energy in washing/drying), don't create or hold odors, but they also don't have a luxurious feel, and don't easily glide over the skin.

These are great towels.  I bought the white ones.  I already have a set, and bought these because we needed more in that bathroom.  They are nice and thick, and attractive. They are amply sized.  I've probably washed them thirty times, and they look as good as new.  And the price is really good, too.
