We bought our first set at the beginning of the pandemic to use as hand towels when washing our hands in the bathroom or kitchen. Considering we were sometimes washing a group a day, they held up pretty well with daily use for about three years.I liked them so much I bought a different color to use as napkins. The color has held up well. They are the perfect size for both hand towels and napkins and they dry quickly so you don’t get that musty smell.I liked the weight for both uses and the only shedding I noticed was with the first few washes, and no more than any other towels you mat have.

WOW I'M SHOCKED MY FIRST TIME I WAS SKEPTICAL 🫤 🙃 😐 BUT DECIDED TO GET THEM I WAS SO PLEASED AND HAPPY THE PRICE WAS GREAT THE COLORS VIBRANT AND DURABLE U CAN BATHE USE ON CHILDREN OR FOR CLEANING NO HANGING STRINGS AFTER USE WHAT A DEAL I HAD TO PURCHASE ANOTHER SET ALL WHITE PRETTY COLOR TRY THEM U WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED AT ALL VERY HAPPY CUSTOMER WELL SATISFIED!!!!!!!!

I was having a hard time finding decent bulk washcloths for my Airbnb. Took a chance and ordered these and for the price, they are perfect. No too thin but also not super thick. They held up well after washing.

These are a much darker grey than shown in the product photo. It took me a long time to finally decide to order them because I did not want anything as pale as these looked. This turned out to be fortunate for me that they are a darker color grey.The quality is okay, not amazing, but certainly not poor or cheap quality.Size is as expected.Product washes without issue.

For those concerned with how much linting off these do, here's three photos. The first from the lint filter of our old style washing machine which does remove lint as the water recirculates through the filter pan. The second is the dryer lint screen that. Both these photos taken after washing a packet of these washclothes by themselves. The lint I get from my many times washed wool socks exceeds the lint in the washing machine for these wash clothes... it was surprisingly little lint for any load of whites. The dryer trap lint, likewise was very reasonable in amount compared to other washes of well worn white towels. You won't be disappointed, if you receive the same wash cloths I bought in March of 2025. These are thinner than the ultra thick luxury wash cloths that you can buy for a lot more money, but not thin enough to alarm me... they are good for use on the body and not scratchy or harsh, nice soft and fluffy, mid quality wash cloths. The edges are rolled and stitched at about 15 or 20 stitches to the inch, not basted with large stitching. These show every sign of quality edge finishing.

Perfect rags to have for my guest bathroom and enough quantity to wash your face daily for a week without laundry. Soft and easily usable for baths or washing your face

Item was fine but the Amazon delivery box smelled stinky sour! I had to throw it outside and hope that it didn't permeate the odor into the contents.

UPDATE (4 months of regular use): The color retention isn’t mentioned in the description but now that I’ve had an opportunity to test them for a few months of 2x per week washing, I have some good news. The purple washcloths are now more of a lavender (more like the color in the ad) and are just as soft and well-composed as when I bought them. The only strings I’ve seen are from me ripping the tags off with my hands - I don’t have time for scissors. 🙃 I also don’t wash as directed, I wash on high with warm water and have not been nice to them at all. Thank you, Amazon!ORIGINAL REVIEW (Nov. 2017):Thanks to targeted ads (I can’t believe I’m saying that) I found AmazonBasics wash cloths.<<<I will not buy any other from here on out!!!>>>Do you like wasting money? Do you enjoy finding out you have spent $50 on 24 “luxury” towels only to find they don’t absorb anything, are poorly sewn, and like to rip/fall apart in the WASH when they’re not even being used? Yeah, me either. That has been my experience with two other companies, and given the reprehensible customer service experience I was ready to cut my losses and go to Walmart for junky, pilly rags that last a month at best. It appeared my efforts to eradicate wasteful paper towel spending had been thwarted. Then, my unnecessarily frugal (cheap) heart was spared! Now I only have to spend $50 a year as opposed to $60 per month just to clean up after my 5 little slobs.I have to be objective though, so here are the pros and cons, as well as a comparison on product description advertising versus REALITY.Amazon’s Description* LINTING: Medium* DURABILITY: Medium* ABSORBANCY (Amazon misspelled it): Medium* SOFTNESS: MediumMy Experience* LINTING: Low* DURABILITY: High* ABSORBENCY: Medium* SOFTNESS: Medium/HighPROS* Whites hold up in bleach on hot in washer. (Disclaimer: they explicitly state NOT to bleach, not sure why.)* Only had to wash whites one time and lavender two times to get rid of initial linting.* Used daily for following:- Floor mopping.- Dishes, pots and pans.- General baby and pet messes.- Hand towels for “nice” bathrooms.- Baby teethers and wiping up after meals. (Put a few ice cubes in damp washcloths and secure with hair tie - another money saver!)- Face towels after washing.- Makeup remover.- Water absorber under orchid pots.* Soft enough to use for face/body.* Just the right thickness so as to be able to lay over the sink and reuse. Other washcloths I’ve had were so thick you had to wash immediately after use or they would develop a musty stench.* End seams are done extremely well. Even with hard floor (and dog poo on cement) scrubbing, they don’t even threaten to shred or run...unlike the past two brands.* Tight weave, yet still soft. Makes for a strong towel that a dog and toddler can’t rip when they’re playing tug of war!* Thicker than expected for a cost-effective washcloth. It was difficult to get an accurate pic with not enough hands, but after washing and folding they’re about an in and a half in height.CONS* Amazon lists size as 12”x12”. As you can see in the photos, they are more like 11”x11.5. This was right out of package prior to washing and drying.* Lavender color was more of a deeper purple. See photos - not even close in color. But I don’t care, they work!Overall, these are an exceptional product for an exceptional price. They save me money, are nice in presentation rolled up in my guest bath, and are useful for literally everything without showing much wear and wash up like nothing happened. I am SO impressed. Seriously, look around on the site, you will see that you will pay double and triple for the same number of washcloths that don’t hold up as well.I swear on my kids’ lives I wasn’t compensated for this review. We just really like them. :-) Hope this was helpful!!
