Linum Home Textiles Luxury Hotel Collection 100% Turkish Cotton Terry Bath Towels (Set of 4)

These were surprisingly great towels. There was the expected minor amount of cotton fluff that came off on us after the first use or two, but that was mostly because we were too excited to wash them first. After the first wash, there was no problem whatsoever.The towels are perfectly soft, but not overly so. They're absorbent, and look nice. Careful if you have hair dye... they'll absorb the color. The packaging says not to use chlorine bleach, but we did anyway, and they were back to perfectly white with no problems.The size of the towel is 'normal'. They're neither particularly big, and they're not too small. Since they're so cheap, we will definitely be buying a second set when we need them.We were originally going to just use these as 'guest' towels, but they've already been upgraded to our everyday towels.If you're on the edge between different brands, or other cheap white towels... these are the ones to get. They're not high end super amazing towels like those you can get at Bloomingdales... but they're great normal towels.

I've been using some fairly good quality towels, but realized they've seen better days. Since it's been a while since I've purchased any, I was shocked at the price, even at the big box stores. After doing a bit of comparison shopping and reading the reviews, I swallowed hard and purchased these, along with the set of six washcloths. They arrived a couple of days ago, and I've washed and dried them several times. When I put them in my linen closet, I was amazed that four of these towels, folded, take up the same room as seven of the ones I already have. When I stacked them next to my other white towels, these are a blinding, snowy white that makes the others look almost ivory.To use, these are soft, incredibly absorbent, and quick to dry. Yes, I spent more than I wanted to, but I am delighted with the investment. I can cross towels off my list for a while!

These are nice and soft, large and well made. Good value. I got the white ones and they launder very well.

These are nice towels. They aren't the best I've ever had, but they are fine. I also ordered the wash clothes and hand towels. I followed the instructions on prewashing with vinegar. I didn't have any coating or lint problems with them. They absorb and dry well.Why they didn't earn five stars:1. They are slightly on the skimpy size. I've been using Land's End towels for several years. They are slightly larger. I think Land's End has slipped on quality and didn't want to take a chance with reordering.2. They only come in white. I'd like a color choice. White would have been fine if they were the greatest towels I'd ever purchased.If I had seen them ahead of time in a store, I probably won't have purchased.

I ordered one set of these last fall, and they were just as described and pictured: plush, thick, nice herringbone dobby. So, when I needed more of them, I called up the old order and clicked "purchase" to get some more. Unfortunately, without thinking, this time I had used a different seller, and what arrived was completely different, and subpar in every way: four thin towels stuffed into a shipping envelope with no additional packaging, stained with little red spots, dirty with brown mud on them, and a totally different design. I returned those right away, and re-ordered from a different seller.This time, the product was four towels labeled "Salbakos Cambridge Collection", which again don't look like the picture I'm seeing on the "Luxury Hotel and Spa" towel page, but do look like a customer image with the caption "this is what the dobby looks like". These are at least white, stain-free, somewhat thicker, and almost plush-seeming. The dobby is not the nice herringbone one pictured, but it's okay, and I'm not going to kill any more polar bears by shipping towels around the country trying to get the ones that are pictured.I don't understand how things with such different names and descriptions can all be sold under the same description, but I suppose this probably explains the wide range of customer experiences with this product. Next time, I know not to use a third party seller for a product like this.

This is, simply, an excellent product. Stand up to washing and drying and they don't fray or wrinkle or shrink...at all! After a couple months' worth of use, they still come out of the dryer perfect and fluffy, and fold up perfectly, looking like new. Even the tags are awesome: they don't hang out the edges, and don't fade, fray or wrinkle, either, so I don't feel compelled to remove them as I usually do... Yes, I am that picky! They are soft, but not that obnoxious kind of soft that doesn't actually absorb the water and dry you off. I would purchase these again in a heartbeat...but from the way they are performing so far, I have a feeling I won't have to, because I expect to have this set in use for years to come! I have bought literally *dozens* of brands of white towels and washcloths over the past fifteen years and these are, by far, my best investment ever, and at a very reasonable price for such a high end product!
