Hiturbo Microfiber Wetsuit Changing Poncho Reviews Summary

Absorbency and Material Quality

Pros:

• "Nice material. More absorbent than you'd expect."
• "The absorbency is strong and the quality is great."
• "Really soaks up the water from my swimsuit. I swim daily in our indoor pool, then go to the car and drive home."
• "It is lightweight, absorbent and dries very quickly."
• "The material is so absorbent that I don’t really need to do any rubbing to dry."
• "This is a thick, absorbent material but breaths very well on the beach."
• "Lovely, light and very absorbent material that feels slightly suede texture."

Cons:

• "It still stinks!!"
• "The main problem is the material quality. The seams on the sides tore after a few months."
• "Microfiber fabric is very nice. Overall good value for how cheap it is, but be careful! This thing is not durable."
• "However, the seam started separating along the shoulder after only a few uses."
• "The actual robe is great, good length/width but it keeps running colour in the wash. I’ve washed it so many times and it’s terrible."
• "I love the fabric and colors, and how light it is but the reason why im not giving it 5 start is because the seems rip easily."
• "It is not at all absorbent."

Design and Comfort

Pros:

• "Great for summer."
• "Plenty of room to change under it and long enough for me at 5 foot 7."
• "After a few practices, changing inside this poncho became much easier."
• "It is not too hot to have on on a hot day but warm enough to keep the chill off."
• "Love this!! So handy, Keeps you warm on windy days, doesn’t constrict motion (even for a plus size person)."
• "This is nice and loose fitting. I bought one for my wife and one for myself so we have something for when we are getting in and out of our hot tub."
• "It's really big so completely covers you and there is room to fumble around to get dressed under it."

Cons:

• "This product makes it fairly easy to change the top half of your body but it difficult to change the bottom half as when your body is wet the robe sticks to your body."
• "I found the robe really restrictive and nearly impossible to get changed under."
• "Not a lot of room to wiggle in as sleeves are sewn in."
• "The poppers are ideal but when you're freezing cold and they come unpop when changing wriggling around."
• "There is a risk of flashing sideboob with this."
• "There was too little room and it clung to my damp body."
• "It's not very absorbent towelling, but light and smart looking."

Practicality and Convenience

Pros:

• "Lightweight so easy to pack in the backpack."
• "You never have to worry about your towel dropping and there’s easily enough room to change into your clothing underneath."
• "With this product I can change anywhere with privacy."
• "Keeps us dry while we're getting her changed & easy to slip on outfits underneath without faffing with towels etc."
• "This was so much easier not having to carry my clothes to an from the shower tent."
• "I also love the large arm holes that also has snaps so that you can keep them snapped when you are walking around."
• "This is a perfect product for my daughter when she goes surfing. She is able to throw it on over her swimsuit and it is lightweight and absorbent."

Cons:

• "A head-hole in the middle of a sheet works, too - without the style."
• "The return window is closed on my order (ordered it in January), so I’ll have to sew it and hope for the best."
• "The niggle (and it is a very small one) is that the washing instructions only indicate temperature not the method."
• "It’s not very absorbent but a great cover up."
• "Other than the 'what the hell are you wearing' looks I have received, I can’t say anything bad about this product."
• "Used it for about a year and then the stitching on the side ripped - very easy to do if you catch your arm in it."
• "Returned it. One of the product images shows a woman who looks like she's institutionalized."
