Switching to Microfiber pros, cons
I was very impressed with using microfiber towels as rags at work and decided to try them in the home.These larger towels have a taller and slightly less dense pile than the ones I use as rags. It is very soft against the skin. After a shower there is no doubt that your body is dryer after using microfiber then they would be after using cotton towels. There is a slightly different technique involved, hard to describe, more of a drag than a pat-down. Especially when drying hair, instead of scrubbing like with cotton, you just pull it across your hair. The hair becomes MUCH dryer than with cotton towels, blow-dry time is far shorter.When you then hang the towel on a rod, it becomes much dryer, much quicker than a cotton towel. The same towel can be used more times before washing. When removing the towel from the washing machine, it's lighter than a cotton towel, meaning more water has been released in the washer's spin cycle, and they spend less time in the dryer. They also store folded in a space about 40 percent smaller than cotton towels.I got three of the four-packs in 57*30 size. I had previously ordered a single towel from another manufacturer to try it out, and was very pleased to find this Polyte brand has a thicker pile than the other brand. It's still thinner than a deluxe cotton towel, but thicker than any other microfiber I have seen.Long-term durability is still a question mark. I tried stretching one by stepping on one end and pulling with both hands and all my strength with no ill effects.So I don't see any cons at all. Microfiber towels perform better than cotton in every respect that I can see.Except....Not sure if these are polyester, polyamide, or polypropylene, it's probably a combination.Plastics released into he environment break down over centuries. Where do they go? They break down into microscopic particles of plastic, and that's when they can enter the food chain. Nobody knows the true long-term effects of plastics in the environment. Make no mistake, this product releases particles of plastic that are already broken down to microscopic size into your home environment, where you will breath or ingest them. I am far enough on the downhill side of life to say "meh", but if I still had kids around here, maybe I'd think different.Then again, this effect has already been going on with all your poly-blend and other synthetics for seventy years. The only difference here is that the fiber is already broken down to microscopic size so that even plankton can consume them. It is said Americans consume about the weight of a credit card in plastics every month. You and I are living in an experiment.Lastly, If your local sewage treatment plant could put an outright ban microfibers, they would. They have a really tough time removing these from water as they tend to bind with other contaminants. They don't get it all and some goes to the river and the ocean soon after.

Nice quality so far, can see why reviews are mixed
At this point, I love these towels. Only one wash so far, but holding up well. They're lightweight, and with the poly, they dry really fast. But I can see how the reviews vary. Some people are getting frustrated because they're still wet afterward, while others say they dry amazingly well. I'd say both! Because they are poly, they seem to leave a very thin feeling of moisture behind - kind of like if you rubbed your skin with a damp towel. But the vast majority of the wetness, they suck up, much more easily and quickly than a regular towel. And it isn't like the towel is wet, it just doesn't get you bone dry, which is probably much better if you're putting on moisturizer or something. So in one regard, I can feel my hair being much dryer, and it seems much easier to dry myself (keeping in mind I'm male). But on the other hand, you have a sensation of still being a little damp for the next 10 or 15 seconds. I could see if you're in a humid climate, or are particular about having bone dry skin, the feeling it leaves behind might make you say eh. For my part, I love it.

Best alternative to Norwex Towels
Our family has only used Norwex towels for the past five years. I love how quickly they try. It was time to replace some old towels, but it just could not justify almost $50 for one bath towel. I found these on Amazon and did a test run with some small washcloths. We love them! Since then, I purchased the kitchen towels, bath sheets, and now the bath towels. They feel just like our other others and I think they’re slightly larger! I plan on getting some in every color. So affordable too!

Type of fabric does not feel good on your skin
Terrible fabric for bathing. It doesn’t slide over your skin. The hook idea is nice and the color is vibrant.

Great price and full load of 8 towels only takes ten minutes in the dryer.
I ordered a set and once I used and washed them I order more. Super lint free. And really soft. Dry fast.
