Tools and Hardware Reviews of Pinzon 800-Gram Bath Towel, MediterraneanCustomer Review: Addressing "concerns" about this towel.... Summary: 5 Stars
I agree with all those who love these towels! They are soft and silky. After the first wash they felt a little weird when drying, hard to explain, but they get better with each wash. Since most reviewers are thrilled with the quality and feel, I am going to address my experience about some of the "concerns".
First, I purchased the white bath size towels. They seem more of a cream than a white so maybe I got the wrong color. I have not had any shedding or pilling with these towels, even after the first wash. After use, my towels have always been dry by the next day.
My biggest concern was the surprise info when the towels arrived that they needed to be washed with cold water, and dried on low. If I can't wash my towels in hot water and dry with heat, I don't want them. So I decided to do it anyway to see what would happen in the event I wanted to order more. I have washed my towels 4 times now, all with HOT water, and dried on regular. I have NOT noticed ANY problems. The towels are still super soft and if they shrank it was too minimal to notice. Since I've used regular drying heat, my towels have dried in one cycle.
I don't know how a "hot" wash will effect the colored towels, but I'm ordering a set and about to find out. Maybe my disregard for the care instructions will come back to bite me later (will they wear out faster?), but at this point I'm expecting them to last a nice, long time.
I agree, they don't stay wrapped around hair, or around a body. But they're too luxurious for me to care.
I also have bamboo/cotton dishtowels with instructions to wash in cold, dry on low and not to use chlorine bleach. My dishtowels MUST be bleachable and washable in HOT water! I have been doing this with these dishtowels for several months with no obvious problems. (Maybe this will destroy the natural antibacterial feature of the bamboo?)
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
