It suits us very well. After a few washes they will shrink and become softer. I don't feel like ironing them. They also fit better in these boxes which I use when I don't iron or they get too big and I have yet to crease them. I usually fold them the way napkins are folded when they come out of the dryer. I really don't give them a manual nudge at all, which is fine. I have a trash can nearby to pick up dirty laundry. We've been using them for over a year and may need to wash them several times a week during allergy season in our house (6).
