ONSEN Hand Towel - Waffle Weave 100% Supima Cotton Towel - Lusciously Soft, Durable, Fast Absorbing Waffle Towel Bath Towel, Brown

These towels are soft and absorbent. My only wish is that they had a loop to hang them from.

This towel works great if you really need to be absolutely dry, which I do before I put on some medicinal cream. Regular towels, no matter how fluffy and soft, never did a good job on actually drying. This works fantastic. It's also larger than a regular bath towel both in length and width, without being as big as a bath sheet. Looking forward to adding some hand towels to go with them.

Absolutely love these towels. I use them in the kitchen which works great. My husband has big hands and he can drench a towel, however these stay dry.

... That's the tag line in one of the reviews I found for this towel, and they're right.First, if your only criteria for a bath towel are thick, heavy and plush, you probably won't like these. On the other hand if you want a towel that looks terrific, performs as intended and is a pleasure to use, read on.1. Looks terrific: These towels have a relaxed, upscale, minimalist look without being fussy. The colors are slightly muted, organic, nature inspired. Nothing garish here. All the colors would look good together. The soft waffle weave texture contrasts the hard, shiny materials in bathrooms.2. Performs as intended: I believe a bath towel is intended to dry you after a shower or bath. I was surprised by how well these towels do that. I wasn't even what I was looking for that. The waffle weave probably doubles the surface area of the towel.I am puzzled by all the reviews claiming that they're not absorbent, because that is not my experience. One reviewer claims they're not absorbent, and in the next breath talks about the fabric softener she used. As I understand it, dryer sheets and softeners coat the fibers with something that gives the illusion of softness. At the same time, it interferes with the absorbency of the fabric. My neighbor put me onto wool dryer balls (Amazon has them) instead of dryer sheets. They fluff up the clothes, prevent static and don't interfere with absorbency. Wash them in cold water, e-dry them on low and don't use softeners or dryer sheets. See if that makes a difference.3. Pleasure to use: The first time I used them, their lightness and thinness was off-putting. But I got over it quickly because they worked so well. Their lightness actually makes them easier to handle. Schlepping a thick, heavy towel is not required. When I soap up the wash cloth, the soap doesn't get lost deep in terry cloth nap. And I really knew I was getting scrubbed. That was another unexpected pleasure.They wash up nice as described above, and I'm getting very little dryer lint out of them. Because of the stretchiness of waffle weave, folding them was a challenge. I ended up rolling them instead. I fold the bath towel into quarters, and roll it separately. I fold the hand towel lengthwise and roll the folded washcloth inside it. When I stack them on top of the bath towel, I can fit four complete sets on one 22 inch shelf. That's half the space needed for terry cloth towels.I have no intentions to go back to terry cloth.

Took off a star because there’s no way to hang them. No tag or loop. So you have to hang them on itself, and it’s a sensitive towel.

I wanted a towel with a waffle-weave texture to match my shower curtain. This towel is soft and dries well. It’s a bit larger than a standard hand towel so it drapes onto the counter from my towel bar but I don’t mind it. I think it would make an excellent camping or gym towel.

Love these lux towels - tried the face and hand towels to test (all in white - their white is *bright* cleanest white) and will now purchase bath towels and a full set of hand towels; and look at other colors for our foyer bath. Company is GREAT to deal with - first delivery got lost en route, the company immediately shipped out a replacement, no questions asked, and fast. Each small face towel came carefully wrapped, tied with a fabric bow, each in its own fabric pull-string bag (that I'll use around the house for decorative purposes). These are beautifully made, high quality towels, from a beautiful, high quality company.

I bought the big size, it’s too much towel. Very absorbent, quick drying and soft to the skin. Great towel, I’ll buy more.

I love how light this towel is, yet soft. It’s great for summer and dries quickly. I do wish it was a little less expensive though.Update: after only a few months of use it is developing grey spots, even though I bleach and let it dry fully between uses. Disappointed.

These towels are soft and absorbent right from day 1 - you don't have to wash them 100 times before they dry you well. The bath sheet is hugh - I love it. The denim blue colour is rich and pleasing. They are a little pricey but if they last you a lifetime - they are worth it

I really wanted to love these towels but I really do not understand what all the hype is about. They do dry faster than other towels but I live in a pretty dry climate so that is not a huge appeal. And for the price, I could have bought many more other very nice towels. I would not buy again.

Onsen offre des produits d’une magnifique qualité.Cette couleur (ocre) n’est vraiment pas parmi mes préférées. Les photos promo la montrent bcp plus claire et lumineuse qu’elle ne l’est en réalité. Petit détail comparé au plaisir de les utiliser.

Most amazing towel ever! Very light, soft and extremely absorbent. Seems to magically wick the water away after a shower or bath it and dries fast. Will never go back to a regular towel again, not even the luxury towels can compete. Would be nice if they had some brighter colors.
