Love this towel
November 13, 2016
Love this towel. I did the wash/claybar/compound/polish/wax routine for my F150 this weekend. This was used in the drying after the wash and it worked great. No lint, held a lot of water and didn't leave a lot of streaks. I usually grab two towels and start the rotation of using one for heavy drying and a second for the final wipe. When the first gets soaked, use the second as the first and rotate in a fresh second towel. I can go through 8 small towels drying my truck. These towels were a little larger and were able to dry the majority of my truck with just these two towels and one additional small towel. Much easier. They are the perfect size and hold a lot of water.

Wasted money! They seperated at the seam!
December 1, 2017
They were soft when I got them out of the package and appeared they might have even worked for my new car if they wouldn’t have came apart before I even got to use them. I washed them before I used them. Used the delicate cycle and only used a tiny bit of soap but when I got them out of the washer I noticed 2 out of the six I bought had seperated at the seam, and since they’ve been washed I doubt I could send them back.

I purchased this to use on my E92 BMW. I wash (2-3 weeks)and wax (5-7mo) my car regularly so the water beads pretty well. The towel absorbs a lot of water. Easy to wring out. Is pretty large. For me there's no issue with drying the car after wringing out the water. Still seems to absorb pretty well. At any case I have two of these waffle towels, so if it did have an issue with drying the car completely I would use one to get most of the water off and a dry one to get it completely dry. It does leave some streaking and water at first. I use one to drag off all the water all around. Wring it out and go over again. Then use a dry one and go over with a detail spray. Can't complain for the price. Also used Viking and Supr Suckr. Seems to work the same. Tags are easy to remove. Machine washes fine. Downside: The towel isn't exactly square. It snagged in one area of my car. The grey color is kind of dark, which makes it a little difficult to see if I've collected dirt ( in case I missed a spot).

These towels are nice quality, MUCH more absorbent than a standard microfiber, and are pretty soft. Mine are leaving zero lint, and are picking up a good amount of water. I'm able to completely dry a four door sedan with 2 of these drying towels. My vehicles are higher end cars so I'm very discriminating about the products I use. I've used MF towels from the Rag company and Chemical Guys. I don't like the Chemical guys MF towels at all, but the Rag company 420 GSM and Eagles are very good. These are a good value for the price, and I'll order a few more. I've only had these a week, so If anything changes over the next few months I'll update my review.
No reason to worry about purchasing these, they're a good product at a reasonable price.

As the title states - this is just a better version of the original absorber. Both are not great for drying cars on their own - but do a good job of getting most of the moisture off so you can finish drying with a towel. It is much larger, so you don't have to wring it out every few wipes. I can get about halfway through a small SUV before having to spin it out, compared to the absorber that gets wrung out every other pass.
If you use this and only this, you will have the fine spots/streaks that are left behind. The average person probably won't care, but if you're critical with how you take care of your car then make sure you use a towel immediately after this - especially on windows and mirrors!

I haven't had a chance to use these towels yet but one was unraveling at the edge.It seemed to be mis sewned and the thread was coming loose.I'm sure it will get worse over time or after the first washing.The second towel appeared to be ok.I will update after I use the towels.
Update:I had a chance to use the towel and it works very well.Also the seller is replacing the towel with the frayed edge.I will say the customer service is outstanding.I wish all sellers valued their customers as much as this one does.

These were a great deal and so I decided to pick these up and use them everything around the house, but I've got to say that they do not pick up water very well. The cloths will pickup dirt and dust extremely well and like the white side for cleaning areas where I want to know that it's done work, and the black side for everything else. But when it comes wet situations, these will not soak up liquid and I realized this when I tried wiping and drying my windshield off after spraying cleaner onto it. Like I said it will pickup that dirt but it will not dry wet surfaces. You'll want to use something more absorbant, and if you're looking to dry with a microfiber cloth I would suggest a waffle weave type.

Just make sure you receive both. Maybe my order was a fluke, but I ordered the 2-pack, but I only received one. My only option for resolution was to return the item, there is no "I received the wrong quantity" selection in Amazon.
I will say that the size and quality of this microfiber towel seemed good, and it would have worked out well if I received the correct quantity.

Work well and are very absorbent. When it comes to drying towels they're not the softest and it has caused me some concern which is why they are no longer my primary drying towels, no scratching or anything like that, but I have found superior drying towels.

These works great and are cheapest I've found. Only issue is the edges come apart. The piping came undone after my first wash, about 6 inches long. Got a replacement and that had a seam come undone the first time I used it. This one was only a couple of inches long and not worth the hassle of returning. Still a favorite for me regardless of tear.

We bought these to towel off our dog when she comes in from the rain (as we had been using a large bath towel that took forever to dry). The waffles on this towel make it more absorbent and substantial than other similar sized micro fiber towels. They have been sturdy so far. Happy with the purchase.

These towels work great for my black car. No fuzz left on the car. Only downfall is I had to buy 4 of them to totally dry my car. I wish they were bigger. It's better than most towels that leave fuzz on a black car.
