LANE LINEN Kitchen Towels Set Reviews Summary

Absorbency

Pros:

• "Overall they absorb pretty well while being aesthetically pleasing!"
• "They are real cotton and sewn with Care.. very little shrinkage and no lint they hold up great and soak well also.. No fading so far after I'm sure ten washes thus far."
• "These are actually really nice! Very absorbent, washed up well and didn't pucker up and shrink."
• "These towels are not only nicely designed but super absorbent for everything from spilled coffee to just simple hand drying."
• "They absorb well and are holding up well in the wash."
• "The towels washed up nicely. I took them out of the dryer within a few minutes of it stopping, and the towels were soft and barely wrinkled."
• "These dish cloths arrived vacuum packed and felt very thin. I put them through the wash cycle on cold and dried on low. The dish cloths absolutely thickened up. The absorbancy is great, and I haven't had an issue cleaning or drying."

Cons:

• "Super disappointed. Going to throw them out as they just waste space. These aren’t good for drying anything."
• "I don’t know that I’ve ever met a properly absorbent kitchen towel— which is rather bizarre given that they’re supposed to be for drying hands and dishes."
• "These towels are nice looking, but they can’t clean anything up! I spilled a little bit of water and all they did was spread it around."
• "Not super absorbent but they look nice as a classic touch for the holidays."
• "I was hoping to love these dish towels but they don’t dry my dishes."
• "Material is super thin. Not very absorbent at all. Doesn't work well to dry dishes or your hands. I wouldn't purchase again."
• "I thought that since these towels are 100% cotton that they would be absorbent but all they do is push water around on whatever you are trying to dry."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

• "Can’t beat these for the price. Great weight and texture for a dish towel."

• "I absolutely love these. Such an incredible buy so durable."
• "These towels are beautiful and made well."
• "These are not only pretty, they are REAL dish towels. They are heavier, not thin and flimsy. They absorb great and wash great."
• "These towels. made in India, are made from attractive light-weight cotton fabric and are nicely finished."
• "These are the best kitchen towels I have ever owned. And I have owned hundreds over the years. They are very pretty, exceptionally well made and absorbent."

Cons:

• "I bought these during Prime days and they are the most worthless towels out there."
• "Very crappy towels. I saw they were made of cotton. I didn’t realize they were made of linen."
• "However, these towels are super thin and snag very easily."
• "They are too long and not sturdy enough because they have to be washed in cold water, gentle cycle."
• "After just a few wash and dry cycles the towels lost their shape."
• "The towels are really cheap and thin...I threw them in the trash."
• "These were the thinnest cheapest looking tea towels. If I held them up to the light I could see right through them."

Design and Aesthetics

Pros:

• "I like how the towels feel so far. The price point was good and colour was true warm yellow."
• "The aqua color is also very pretty and was exactly the color I wanted."
• "These towels are a good size for kitchen towels. They work great for drying dishes and hands! They’re soft and the patterns are so cute!"
• "Colors are vibrant and havnt faded in the wash! Dries my hands very well and is large enough for a dish mat. Will buy again in other colors."
• "Got these towels to put on my newly restored kitchen island. The color matched perfectly."
• "I will absolutely buy more from this company!! I love my new kitchen towels, and color is perfect!!! I just cannot beat the price for the quality! Ty!!!!!"
• "I loved that the colors were exactly as pictured. Also, I liked the fabric used. I was afraid the fabric would be cheap. I'm very happy with these kitchen towels."

Cons:

• "Cute for decorative only I wouldn’t buy and use for dishes or messes."
• "The product photo was not true to actual Color of kitchen Towel."
• "Cute for the home however they are made cheaply."
• "These are a pretty color and do the job. However, they dirty easily and are thinner than kitchen towels I've used before."
• "I ordered aqua and got gray. So if the colors are important to you, it may be a gamble."
• "Positive: colors are nice, hold shape after wash/dry.Negative: these towels do NOTHING to absorb any liquid they come into contact with.Cannot recommend."
• "Love the colors of these four towels that go well with my kitchen but they are not wrinkle free when washed and taken out of the dryer (a disappointment)."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "Yes, they do shrink up but they are of a generous enough prewash size that even when they shrink, they're still a decent size."
• "For their selling price I believe that they offer a good value."
• "Ordered the Lane Linen Kitchen Towels. Pack of 4 Cotton Dish Towels 18”x 28”. Decent towels for a good price."
• "I worked at Williams Sonoma and paid with my discount $10 for one kitchen towel. These are the same quality in my opinion for a quarter of the price."
• "Good price for 6 towels. I washed them before use and they did not seem to shrink or fade."
• "For the price these are quite decent quality towels. Absorbent, nice looking."
• "I was looking for something neutral/basic to use in the kitchen after the holidays, these feel expensive & of great quality but they were a fantastic price!"

Cons:

• "Not as absorbent as I’d hoped and VERY thin fabric."
• "Material is super thin. Not very absorbent at all. Doesn't work well to dry dishes or your hands. I wouldn't purchase again."
• "do the job.the price is low so I wasn't expected anything that last. they look like they won't last long...at least they are in cotton and doesn't smell plastic"
• "for what the price is, I guess I would say it is worth the price. But they aren’t very thick so they don’t really soak up much or clean very well."
• "Since they’re so thin, they don’t do much good with drying hands or wiping up the counter."
• "The quality matches the price. These are cheap, thin, and honestly I wouldn’t buy again."
• "Horrible absorbancy. I've been in the fabric business for many years. A tissue will absorb more water."
