Has anybody tried this for removing excess towel fuzz? We just purchased new towels and as usual there's tons of fuzz when washed and dried.

Yes but it takes several washings to remove most of the lint. The same for new sheets unless you use satin. As I have three cats and my daughter has a dog I've found this to be most amazing for removing hair as well. There is also a small, pink and blue/green ball with loops like Velcro that I use in the washing machine that helps a great deal as well.

I leave it in the dryer for everything I wash, and it seems to work fine for towels as well as hair.

Hi Arnold - I probably won't be of much help since I bought this for my newphew for Christmas and haven't personally used it. But since I do use items like that at my house, I wash items like that in warm water (don't use fabric softeners) and I don't put my items in the dryer. If my nephew has used it, I'm sure he didn't give much thought on washing instructions lol! Good luck!

It could very well be the way you are putting the towel in. Also we found our new house with sufficient electrical capacity greatly increased the output of the unit. Hope this helps.

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.

I have washed mine several times. I just throw it in the washing machine, and tumble dry it on the lowest heat setting. Couldn't be easier. Regular laundry detergent, no fabric softener. I wash and dry it with towels. I have had no difficulty with the fibers coming off on the towels, and no issue with lint from the towels on the duster. It comes out like new every time. With a replacement head available for under $10, I will continue to do this, and happily replace it, when it is finally worn out. It couldn't be any more user friendly or easier to clean.

I personally can't compare it to the older version, but would say during my use over a weekend at the beach where it got wet and had some sunny time and shady time on the laundry line it had a lot of potential to stink but never really did. I washed the towels pretty quickly when we got home as well. Just take care of it! I machine wash on a gentler cycle and then have done the dryer with no heat (dries quickly with a small load) and it's holding up well so far.

Yes, for towels especially it works well. Try it in a prewash cycle and let it soak. Then add again to regular wash. Good luck.

My oldest eQua mat towel is at least 3 years old, washed many times, and it feels just as soft/comfy as my newer ones that have only been washed once or twice. I wash using cold water only and tumble dry low without dryer sheets/softener. I'm always amazed by how "new" my old towel looks once I've put it through the wash. The Manduka company has great customer service, so if you do have a problem, contact them!

Hi yes, but the truth is the towels get pretty hot really fast! so I find that I am turning it of when I am almost done with my client. I put fresh towels in and when the next client comes by the time I need my first towel they are pretty hot! Good luck. Lori

I remove it immediately after every use and hang it over a towel rack with the suction cup side out so it'll dry faster and not get moldy. So far nothing has pulled off. As I continue to use it, I like it better than my old one, which was much thicker and heavier. I just wish it weren't such a gray version of white.

I tested the towel just as you asked: I wiped down our shower and hung the towel on the side of the tub. Yes, the towel was dry the next morning.

I wet my towels first thing in morning before appointments & I leave them in there with it on all day, but turn it off when I use the last towel. Hope that answers your question. I've never left it on over night or without towels.

I have only used mine a couple of times thus far so I have just washed and dried itwhy don't you contact the company and ask their advice - most are willing to offer helpGood luck!

Yes, I have. I pop it in with a load of towels and let it air dry. This takes care of any outside staining - they clean up beautifully!!

no not that am aware of... however if if they do you can wash it on hot and add 1 cup of vinegar to instead of detergent and when the washer is done with its cycle then restart the washer and run it on hot again except add 1/2 cup of baking soda (again instead of detergent) and when the cycle is complete dry it and it should smell better... And don't use liquid or powder fabric softener with these towels... or really any expensive towels

Yes. This is what you WANT to use Woolzies for. The fabric softener 'coats' the microfiber pads. I've noticed that my cleaning towels are more absorbent and softer now.

I have not had this problem, with these towels, but I have with dish towels. Try a splash of vinegar in your washing machine.
