Utopia Towels 24 Pack Cotton Washcloths Set, 100% Ring Spun Cotton, Premium Quality Flannel Face Cloths, Highly Absorbent and Soft Feel Fingertip Towels, Black

Arrived within a few hours after placing the order. After reading the 1, 2 and 3 star reviews after placing my order I was a little apprehensive about what I would receive. My apprehension disappeared after I opened and inspected the cloths. I found 24 evenly sized wash cloths, very nice to the touch and as soft as they should be. The next step is to wash/dry them. Prior to washing I decided to put them into the dryer utilizing the Refresh/Steam cycle.With so many of the reviews stating that the lint and fuzz that was coming off and leaving the cloth in a bare thread state, I was curious to see how these would hold up. I allowed the dryer to perform its steam cycle and afterwards I checked the lint trap only to find what I would consider to be an acceptable amount of lint. No more than what would come out with the same amount of new socks.The towels were very soft and the shrinkage was not noticeable enough to make any difference to me. I decided to wash them so I placed them by themselves into the washing machine. Using only bleach and no soap AND COLD WATER ONLY, I started the wash cycle and crossed my fingers. When they were done I put them into the dryer and dried them in medium/low heat. I inspected the lint trap at the end of the dryer cycle to find only a very tiny amount of lint. I was surprised but even more impressed when I checked the size of the cloths and found that they have not decreased in size at all and they were still so soft and fluffy. The picture is of them after coming out of the dryer and after being folded. I am very pleased with these and after inspecting the edge hems and finding a good perimeter stitch I can conclude that they should hold up for a while. I would recommend these if asked about them and when I need more then I will buy them again from Utopia.I would like to address the numerous reviews that have such big issues with hanging threads. I noticed that everyone of the cloth’s had at least 2 threads coming out from a corner. The same corner on all the cloth’s. They are the tie-off threads that always trails the sewing machine foot and usually are clipped manually by someone else prior to packaging. To have a more accurate clipping on ALL of the cloth’s would mean that the cost per wash cloth would shoot way up. So to keep the cost down the manufacturer has reduced the time spent on each item by 3-5 seconds. Imagine a room full of sewing machines producing tens of thousands of cloth’s daily and each one taking an extra 3-5 seconds per unit. That adds up to a definite cost increase in production. So, if you want a small price tag then expect a few corners to be cut in production. A top notch premium wash cloth for use in 4/5 star hotels has a thread count of 700 GSM and a price tag of about $4.00 each compared to the price tag of $.80 cents for these that have only a 100 GSM thread count.Now for those who complain about the dyes bleeding out of the colored ones. I have NEVER seen any newly dyed anything that doesn’t bleed out and will continue to bleed out wash after wash. Up to 6-12 washing the bleeding can continue. I was taught by my mother at a very young age that you should NEVER EVER wash any NEW or NEWLY dyed material with ANYTHING else that is a different color or material. NO water temperature other than COLD for the very first time in the machine. Both wash and rinse cycles should be done in as cold of water as possible. If possible allow the machine to pause following the agitation cycle and allow the clothes to soak in the COLD water for at least 10 minutes.THE COLDER THE BETTER! NEVER EVER USE ANY SOAP OR BLEACH OR SOFTENERS during this FIRST washing of the dyed items. NEVER attempt to rewash the same load of clothes before they have been completely dried. Lastly, the drying process. Doing a tumble dry with no heat would be great but would take forever so for the first time ever in a dryer using the lowest temperature for the beginning of the cycle and then increasing the temperature to medium at the end of the drying cycle would be best. I was also told to NEVER place newly dyed wet clothes outside in the sunlight to dry.ALL OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE FOR THE FIRST TIME AND THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT MEANT TO CLEAN BUT TO SET THE DYES AND LOCK THE COLORS.Subsequent washing and drying should be done as you would normally do. My mother told me that the best way to tell if dye bleeding has stopped is to place a small WHITE piece of material into the wash and then check it after washing and then place it in the dryer with the others and inspect it again after drying. A much cheaper method than having to replace clothes that have been ruined by bleeding of dyes.I am a 70 year old man who lived in a time when Rit dyes were more commonly used to rejuvenate the “hand-me-downs”. Like getting a whole new wardrobe as a kid. HahahaI hope that this helps some of you that seem to throw up your arms and declare that a product is garbage because of a simple dye bleed. Good luck and happy washing.I LIKE MY NEW UTOPIA WASH CLOTHS!

I bought the 60 pack of electric blue washcloths for my family for the purpose of replacing toilet paper when doing just #1. They are a very pretty shade of French blue, 100% cotton, and nice and soft and absorbent after a few washes. We love using them for this purpose, and it is seriously reducing our toilet paper usage! Toilet paper is expensive, full of chemicals, and trees are cut down to make it, so we are happy to have found this solution to seriously reduce our usage of it. We love having a washable and reusable product to replace it. Extremely happy with this purchase! With the high cost of toilet paper, these will quickly pay for the initial purchase price as we save loads of money buying far less toilet paper!

These are really nice for the price. I ordered them planning to use them as cleaning rags, but I decided to use them as regular washcloths instead because they’re so pretty. They’re really flat when they arrive, but they fluff up like crazy after being laundered. I washed them twice and dried them in stages so that I could monitor lint. The lint filter filled up within fifteen minutes and then gradually stopped filling up. The cloths that had been in a small package filled an entire round laundry basket when folded in thirds. The edges don’t look all beat up after the first washing like the edges on the more expensive ones I bought locally did. They’re soft and inviting. Only one cloth had a tiny bit of fraying on an edge, but I simply trimmed it and it looked fine. One out of an entire package is much better than what I normally see when I get new towels and washcloths. I had also purchased some bar towels/utility towels in a light green from this same brand. They were so nice and pretty that I decided to use my other dish towels as cleaning rags and to use the pretty green towels as dish towels instead. They’re doing a wonderful job at drying dishes and they’re washing up nicely. My kitchen towel drawer looks like springtime now. With these pretty washcloths, I discovered that it’s possible to fold them into thirds and roll them so that they look like flowers ready to open. If they were carefully arranged in a bowl or basket, they would look really pretty, like a bowl or basket of flowers in a bathroom. You just need to tuck the finished edges in so they don’t show. I’m really glad that I discovered this brand of towels and washcloths.

The media could not be loaded. Mon 5/5/25:Very thin, I guess if they had taken the time to sew 2 cloths together you would have 12 decent weight quality wash cloths, instead you get 24 feather weight. Not a deal at all. I give it a 3rd star only because of 24 ,I'm afraid to see the towels that I purchased by same company. I'll keep you posted. Not thick, but thin and small, (12x12) not wat I expected bcz of the advertisement used words like plush, thick, highly disappointed.Update: I washed the black washcloths in cold water on speed wash delicate. I don't want to disregard someone else's experience but I must say, there was no loose thread, no unraveling, no lint. The lint in the lint trap was a normal amount that you'd get after every load. So I'm glad that I went ahead to purchase 24 black washcloths. They were nearly packed, had washing instructions right there on the label. So I'm glad that I took the chance to see for myself. Only disappointment is that they aren't as thick as I usually buy them but after seeing that they did not fade after washing, and the bad reports are not this experience I picked them in the spare bathroom with the towels wen they are finished drying . So I will say 4 star bcz they look fluffy and much better after coming out of dryer.
