Why does mine not feel like a towel, it feels more like a bathmat?

It doesn't have that moisture-sucking feel of microfiber, and it's not fluffy like a towel. It feels comfortable when you use it, like durable cotton clothing. I have one that's been used about 500 times over 5 years, and run though the washer and dryer every time. It's still perfectly usable, although the border stitching is starting to look a little ragged.

No, it feels like light weight silk. And it does not float up with hot water steam like some do. I love it. It changed the whole look of my bathroom.

It feels like a mixture of down alternative with a touch of gel in the material. I say this because when you move to an area not already warm from your body it has that sensation. I love mine and have never slept better. This thing is very warm once your body heat has warmed it up and I need very few covers, even on the coldest night. Hope this helps!

It's not bad. My regular size towels I fold in thirds, lengthwise, then roll them. But my bath sheets I have to fold in half, crosswise, then roll them to stick them in. They hang out past the other towels on the sides, but it's an interesting contrast. Looks like a tree, kind of... I strongly suggest making sure you mount it into studs. Snagging a towel out of it when it's just mounted to the sheetrock will probably pull it out of the wall.

I had thought about a heating pad too - maybe on a low setting. There is a nice thick fluffy cushion inside that you can take out to wash. The underneath is not plastic - I'm not sure what it is. It looks like fabric but feels kind of paper-y. Just buy it and return if you don't like it. For $20 it's a pretty good deal.

It's synthetic. Don't focus on the word "towel". In terms of material, this is no kind of towel as you know it. It's only a towel because it can be used to dry the body. The material feels very similar to chamois leather.

The towel is very plush and absorbent, yes. I've only washed mine a few times but so far they've remained soft, plush and absorbent.

It is a slick surface. If you want more of a cotton type of fabric feel then this is not it.

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

"Thanks, David, could you please elaborate on Wiggle-Waggle top?" -- The top of the mat is a wave pattern and is not completely smooth like my other Rubbermaid bathmat. ...

It feels like a textured plastic. Not a bad feel but defintely not luxurious.

It is kind of warm and moist...not uncomfortable. I generally use it before bed, and am not bothered by it. It hasn't actually made me sweat...just a warm, sort of tacky feeling if that makes sense. I haven't tried to bathe it off, but I imagine that would work. But I would not want to wash it off as that might counter the effectiveness...

I don't use a towel. The mat is fine until it gets wet with sweat, then it gets very slippery, at least for me. I have been told by a friend that this improves over time with usage, that the mat requires a 'break in' period.

It is like woven fibers feels like felt. It is transparent. It is not a cloth.

No, this one doesn't go in water at all. However, the heat feels "moist" but it is not like a hot wet towel.

None whatsoever. It feels just like wearing a watch that has a rubber watch band. Mine is on 24/7 except when I take a shower.
