AmazonBasics Fade Resistant Towel Set 6 Piece Reviews Summary

Material and Quality

Pros:

• "Overall, the towels are of good quality. They are not rough and dry well."
• "These are very soft and are very absorbent."
• "The towels are great for the price however, they will not last long. They are pretty thin and leave a lot of fuzzies behind."

Cons:

• "These are really thin, like towels you would get at the dollar store."
• "The product arrived feeling very scratchy and stiff, odd for cotton."
• "These hand towels are pretty average in every way. They're not particularly plush or soft, though they're not bottom of the barrel thin either."
• "Not as soft as advertised, and though it's only gone through 2 washes and we expect it to get better; the towels leave us covered in little black lint after showers."
• "These towels are really soft and absorbent; however, the colour fades really fast when washed."

Shedding and Lint Issues

Pros:

• "I purchased one set of Amazon Basics 6-Piece Fade Resistant Bath towel, Hand and Washcloth Set -Cotton, White. It's very absorbent and very soft."
• "I've had these towels and wash cloths for a few months and a they've had weekly washing and drying in the machine. The color has not faded."

Cons:

• "I have never seen a piece of cloth produce so much lint before. You could make another towel from the lint that was captured."
• "A little disappointed because these are both soft and effective but even after 3 washing cycles they still leave little black lint pieces."
• "These towels have not stopped fuzzing. There's green fuzz all over the bathroom from using the towels."
• "Purchased in June 2021 on a lightning deal and these have been subpar. Even after following the washing instructions the blue ones that we purchased still leaked blue and tinted the shower slightly blue."
• "These are not fade resistant, but if you get them on sale you get a lot of these. So the low cost makes sense. It shows orange spots if you don't wash these right away."

Color and Appearance

Pros:

• "These towels look nice and it’s true navy color."
• "The color is completely different than advertised. Helen Keller would school Stevie Wonder on that."
• "The color of the towels is very nice, and true to what is shown on Amazon."

Cons:

• "I bought this towel set because I liked the navy blue color. Although they have remained soft, absorbent, and fluffy through many washings they have faded spots throughout that are purplish."
• "Size is average. Color is NOT fade resistant. These faded a lot with the first washing."
• "The picture is not true to color. They definitely look more green in person. The color is nice and vibrant, doesn’t transfer, and doesn’t fade after washing."
