Absolutely beautiful Best BuyBasics Fade-Resistant Cotton 6-piece Towel set 2 Bath - 2 hand towels - 2 wash cloths. All are Black in color. They are thick and luscious towels. I am so pleased. I compare them with the towels I currently have and there is no comparison. These new ones are everything in the description. The packaging was superb - wrapped in plastic bags - and shipped in cardboard boxes fitting the size of (1) the bath towels and (2) fitting the size of the hand towels and wash…

Pros
  • I loved how soft they are. They are also very plush!
Cons
  • Lint, Lint, Lint...no matter how many times you wash...Lint. Do not buy.

Shed Everywhere.: my feedback

They are towels. And they are soft. But you have to wash them at least five times to get all the extra fluff off. I washed them twice before using them and I still had little black fuzzies everywhere.

Pros
  • My only issue is these do shed quite a bit until they are washed several times.
Cons
  • The towels are too stiff and not very absorbent

Great towels best in my review

Love these towels they could just use a little more fluff and absorbency. Possibly it’s the material or the dye but I feel they could absorb a little better. Still great towels and definitely will last. Would buy again.

Pros
  • Love the dark color. Washed them right away and they are soft did not fade so far
Cons
  • They have a chemical smell that does not dissipate even after multiple washes

Worst towel purchase I’ve ever made.

It is beyond me how these towels have good ratings. They are rough, thin and extremely cheap feeling. The bath towels are so so. The washcloths are the worst washcloths I’ve ever purchased. Very disappointed.

Pros
  • Good quality towels and do not look faded like most black towels.
Cons
  • They are made from low-quality material and are prone to fraying

Never buy this product! You will regret it.

Product faded and so much lint. It was all over my clothes and created a big mess. I will never buy again. That's my feedback!

Pros
  • It does holds dirt
Cons
  • I washed the towels prior to use but they continue to shed.

Pass on this best in my review

Leaves little bits everywhere. Not quite soft. Good for never wanting it for more than vacation but that’s what hotels are for.

Pros
  • They have a slight smell when you first get them so make sure to wash them first
Cons
  • holds color, but not too soft and not absorbent

Its a towel for my opinion

I just bought these to hang for decor in my guest bath, not use so yea Im happy. Ordered black towels, got black towels. I wouldn’t describe them as thick & soft but they don’t feel bad, their just average towels

Pros
  • Perfect for daily or occasional use
Cons
  • The towels do not dry quickly, leading to mildew and bacteria growth

A luxury basic - my new review

Very soft, large, and luxurious for a "basic" total set. Had then about 3 months now and they've only gotten better with more washings. I've been very happy with these towels.

Pros
  • An essential bath and hand towel set for any home
Cons
  • The towels look cheap and do not provide a high-quality experience

The Source of All Lint

Please, I beg you, do not buy these towels unless you have an all-encompassing lint fetish! I've never seen anything like this before.ever. Washed the two sets alone and noticed a lot of black lint stuck to the washer walls, an omen of things to come. Dried them, emptying the lint trap 3 times, with an ungodly amount of lint. Repeated the process a second time, still a massive amount of lint. How about a third time? Sure enough! Then made the crucial mistake of washing and drying them a fourth…

Pros
  • Towel Sets
Cons
  • These towels are not suitable for use by people with sensitive skin

The surprise was the size of the Body towels, they are a bit longer and wider than my other towels. They arent thick and plush like expensive towels but they dont look cheap. If your looking for thickness these arent the ones but i like these for guests or an extra towel set that looks great

Pros
  • Suitable for daily use for years to come
Cons
  • These towels are not suitable for use in hot or humid climates

Geat for the money best in my review

I purchased the set at a great price an figured they would be ok. They are are a little better then expected. Could be a littler softer but not bad. I will consider purchasing more.

Pros
  • Eco-friendly production with responsible sourcing
Cons
  • The towels are not very flexible and do not mold to the body

It’s the lint that doesn’t end!

Wanted black towels that wouldn’t fade after a few washes & these absolutely deliver! However what they don’t tell you is that you will be thrown into a battle with lint that will push you to psychosis. I’ve washed & dried these pieces on heavy duty wash/dry cycles 7 times now & I am still plucking black lint off every surface in the bathroom & every crevice of my person after a shower (where the entire point is to emerge CLEAN). What demon from the bad place designed this new form of torture?!

Pros
  • 100% Cotton
Cons
  • The towels leave black fuzz all over the bathroom

Love these towels!: my feedback

I wanted black towels to match my black and yellow themed bathroom. I have since added a fairy theme in there as well which has really boosted the originality of it. The black towels are a gorgeous accent to my final piece and they are extremely sturdy. I am pleased with how fast they were delivered and I was very content with the price. Best Buy is where I buy most of my house decor and necessities and so far has yet to fail me. I am a super happy Best Buy costumer and hope this review helps…

Pros
  • Hand towels are the perfect size for quick drying
Cons
  • The towels slide around on towel bars and cannot be securely hung

Great for my guest bathroom.

I bought these for my guest bathroom and I’m already washed them a couple of time and haven’t had any fading issues. They are absorbent and soft. Only problem is I only got the one set. I need more of the bath towels.

Pros
  • Resistant to snags or tears
Cons
  • The towels are not very absorbent, allowing water to drip from them

Too much fuzz on towels.

Towels had too much fuzz it let out even after washing 2 to 3 times. It eventually stopped after numerous washes. Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • Pretty and thick only issue is they leave a lot of lint of your wet skin.
Cons
  • They do not retain their shape and become misshapen after washing

Perfect set of clothes and towels!

I love these clothes and towels! They're incredibly soft and pretty thick too (especially the bath towels). In addition they are pretty good sized clothes and towels and the color doesn't bleed from the towels either. Great purchase!

Pros
  • Perfect for home or hotel use
Cons
  • The set does not include enough towels for larger households or guests

These are awful. The threads come off in your hands

These towels are awful. I washed them once before using and literally my washing machine was filled with pieces of thread. The dryer was even worse. I had to empty it twice because of all of the pieces of the towel that we’re getting caught in the lint tray

Pros
  • Towels look nice but need to be washed first due to so much lent.
Cons
  • Nothing special except the price

Good for the price - my new review

Not bad for the money. As a bachelor who lives alone, these are good enough. They’re not the softest, most absorbent, most luxurious towels that were ever made, but for the price, I was pleasantly surprised. I haven’t had them long so I can’t speak to durability and wear from long-term use, but so far I am pleased with my purchase.I would recommend to a friend or family with the understanding that we’re not talking about super-duper high-quality spa towels. They’re good enough bath towels…

Pros
  • Great for travel, sports, or gym use
Cons
  • The black color of the towels fades unevenly, creating an unattractive look

After buying - my new review

After buying this product I went in the shower and used it like any normal person would use a towel. I dried myself off and threw the towel in the hamper. I look in the mirror and I have gained a layer of black fur from the towel. So I just thought it was that one towel so I hopped back in the shower and then used another one. And went to sleep. And I couldn’t sleep well because I was so itchy in my bed. I didn’t know why until I turned on the lights the next morning. I see now why I was…

Pros
  • Softer than expected. Sizes are great. Nice and absorbent.
Cons
  • The color fades quickly over time

Fuzz, fuzz, fuzz!: my feedback

Fuzz forever. I've washed them three times and still get black fuzz all over me when I dry off after a shower. Thanks for attention.

Pros
  • Affordable pricing for high-quality towels
Cons
  • The towels are not very durable and may fall apart after a few washes
