Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Kitchen Basic 5-Piece Kitchen Towel Set
Customer Review: Practical selection for co-ordinated kitchen! Soft & absorbent!
Summary: 5 Stars
Since my family hasn't chosen a color scheme for the kitchen and adjoining dining room of our new residence, I chose this neutral color of tan (titled "linen" by the manufacturer) for our kitchen towels. I ordered six sets so we could use the old ones as cleaning rags. Admittedly, they're not that raggedy, but they're not color-co-ordinated so ... what the heck!
For the kitchen decor we're thinking of a light yellow with a complementary shade of green ... or perhaps blue. But meanwhile, since these "linen-colored" towels will blend well with almost every shade, we can't go wrong. They also come in other aesthetic colors, any of which I would have chosen if we had already selected our decor.
I chose this set because it has five towels for the same price as others that have only two, and they're attractive in a soft, elegant way: coming in assorted patterns of gingham, plaid, houndstooth, and two striped (refer to the above photo). Since these towels are 100-percent cotton, they're extra absorbent and machine washable. In addition to those practical features, they're the 18x28" size that I've always preferred.
The manufacturer warns that some shrinkage may occur, but I found that to be minimal to non-existent, and was pleased that these towels kept their shape so well.
I got a big LOL from the manufacturer saying that by having various patterns, drying dishes would never get boring. That's a bunch of nonsense, and has nothing to do with boredom. Although my reward in drying is the satisfaction in keeping one's home running smoothly, the only time I'm not bored with that job is when a sociable family member (or friend) washes while I dry. It's the companionship and friendly banter that makes an everyday, ordinary household chore fun.
Would anyone like to come over and wash dishes while I dry? Or I'll wash, if you prefer. I guarantee that neither of us will be bored.

Customer Review: Quality
Summary: 5 Stars
Kitchen towels were purchased to line Easter baskets for family members. Glad I purchased extras for myself. Very good quality. Will continue to look out for special pricing and obtain more for upcoming packages (birthday, showers, etc). Customer Review: Basic towels
Summary: 3 Stars
Nice set of extra towels. I'm using two of them for decoration. They do wrinkle, especially at the edges. There is one fairly absorbant towel in the 5 pack, the rest are pretty thin. I got these for $4.99 as a filler. Not a bad deal for $5.00. Customer Review: Not worth buying

These towels come out of the dryer so wrinkled you can hardly fold them. They also don't absorb well. I would not recommend these or buy them again. Not even sure why I gave one star.Customer Review: Good Quality for the Price
Summary: 5 Stars
I was pleasantly surprised to find that these towels were a bit higher of a quality of fabric than I expected for the price. Great product- I would definitely recommend them!
