I love it. It looks all crinkled after washing first which makes it rather lovely to see hanging by the tub, almost suggesting another time and place. Drying off after my shower was a big surprise. I had used the edge a couple of times during the shower to dry my eyes and that left big wet spots, but when I turned the water off and set to drying off the rest of me, this towel absorbed the water so much more quickly than the microfiber towels with which I had replaced my big fluffy cotton terry towels. All without getting soaked. Linen is amazing. Why did it take me so long to discover this? Linen IS having a moment in the spotlight now. The wash cloths are really quite nice too and I see them replacing several other bath tools because of their rather pleasant exfoliation from face to feet. Excellent purchase!!!
