I'm wondering if these are the same HORRIBLE fuschia towels I purchased from The R@&amp; L*%#!? Not absorbant at all - just move water around!!!

I got the white ones and I love them so much. I use them instead of getting paper towels. They absorb wonderful. I did not get the fuschia color.

These seem very absorbant but I haven't used the regular prefolds so I couldn't answer...

These towels are not a traditional towel, they are made of finely spun cotton and are more similar to a bed sheet, as in a woven material, then a cotton loop traditional towel. I've actually started using these towels over my regular bath towels because they are just so soft after only a few washes and dry super fast so they don't get smelly like a bath towel does.

Yes they wash really well I just put them in the washer with my other cleaning towels I use oxyclean and detergent but no softener. I haven't had it long enough to show any wear. I bought extra pad when I purchased the machine so I always have a clean pad. Jo Ann

They are great but I don't use fabric softener. The towels are not stiff out of the dryer. Very happy with this purchase

I would not recommend the SportLite towel. It's absorbant, but totally not warm and fuzzy.

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.

Yes, I love them. I have always used these flour sack towels for drying dishes. I do have a dishwasher, but so many this I just wash anddry by hand,like pots and pans, etc. They are almost impossible to find locally, so I ordered these just recently and think they are great.

Not sure. I found these towels don't dry as well. They also are not as absorbent.

Yes. I like them very well. A great deal for the money. One reason that towels lose their absorbency, is due to fabric softener, which coats the towels and they are no longer absorbent. If you stay away from the fabric softener, they will last a long time.

These towels, like you said, are lighter, thinner, dry faster, and are made from a more durable synthetic fiber. I used mine while backpacking around a dry, hot region (middle east) and found myself often using it by putting it under my hat to cover my face neck and shoulders, it saved my skin countless times, and packs very tightly. So why not replace every towel in your house? The suede is an...awkward feel against your skin. Not bad by any means, but different, it feels as though water isn't being absorbed as quickly/in the same way as say a typical towel does. Furthermore a typical towel honestly feels more 'comfortable' for whatever reason, and i'd imagine is cheaper as well. Mine didn't have the advertised anti bacterial technology, but I'd assume that is something that wash off/ wear off after a while.

I did not wash them before the first use and had no qualms about it. That said, the towels are more absorbent after the first washing. Once the order is placed, the company will send an email with care instructions. I continue to enjoy this product.

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

It is "not" recommended. They are so easy to wash anyway. Just wait until they cool completely down before you put them in water. Do what is recommended and they will last you a very long time. I'm really loving mine, they wash up so very, very easy.

I have to echo Mr. Maccoole -- mine came two weeks ago and after washing they're fine for my needs and decrease paper towel use. They're bar mops, not hand towels.

No, you would just want to wash them just like you would any other laundry. Some websites suggest using certain types of detergent, but in the end it doesn't affect the absorbency.
