🌈 Aunt Martha's Vintage Dish Towels Set - Pack of 3, 18x28 Inches, Multi Striped, MultiStripe Design Review

Given the mixed reviews I was hesitant to buy it. Some found the fabric stiff and non-absorbent. But the vintage look is cute and the positive reviews won out. I have tried them and they are good. I immediately tossed them in the washer and dryer to test the fabric and they were soft and thick, not stiff and wrinkled. I think the manufacturer must have changed the fabric after the bad reviews. Only four stars because they go down a bit; mine has shrunk to 16 x 24. Not critical, but the…

I liked the first order I received for 3 retro style black stripe towels and would give 5 stars. I reordered the next day. The second order was not of the same quality at all and also the position of the border on the towel was different. In my photo, the towel was on the left from the first order after I embroidered it. Towel to the right of the reorder. 2nd order, towels are NOT same quality. And you can see the border along the bottom edge is closer to the right edge of the towel. I really…

I bought these more as a decorative item for a new kitchen color scheme (don't want to bore you with the details) Previous reviews said they dry hands well but didn't for drying pots and pans or other heavy-duty applications. The reviews also stated that they became more absorbent after washing. After washing with towels and then tumble drying for some time, these towels became a crumpled and twisted mess and didn't lay flat enough to be folded. I put them back in the dryer with damp clothes…

I almost don't want to see this because I love them so much I don't want them to sell out. Shortly after buying one set, I bought another. You are super adorable. Good quality - perfect for a little rustic country touch. The background is cream and the stripe is a perfect grey. I've seen people complain about the absorbency and I've seen puddles of water on it when I used a new one to put wet dishes on it. But it goes away pretty quickly - honestly I don't know if it was just use or washing…

I wrote a great long review for you and deleted everything to summarize everything very quickly: --- If you read other reviews you already know that these kitchen towels are not the best for drying dishes. Fact. If you want to add a vintage rustic flare to your kitchen then they are just great as they look exactly like the picture. -- I don't have wrinkle problems like some of the other reviewers. said.-- I use wool drying balls instead of dryer sheets, so it might help reduce wrinkles…

I was also initially disappointed with the lack of absorbency in these towels. But they seemed so beautiful and high quality that I decided to wash them several times before using them. Even after a few cycles of hot water and oven they are better but still not as absorbent as I would have liked. But that was over a year ago and I've washed them many times since then. They are still as beautiful as before but now they are very soft and absorbent. I will order 2-3 more sets. If you love the…

This review is all about multi-stripe vintage towels. I am in love with these towels, I was planning to embroider them for resale in my shop. They arrived quickly and I was so excited to use them, so I prepped them for use by washing them on a "quick wash" in cold water and a cup of white vinegar to block their color. I put them in an airless dryer and once the cycle was complete I quickly took them off and hung them on a clothesline to dry. I went to get it off the fishing line and one towel…

I have recently changed all my kitchen towels and have bought many red and white towels from six different brands. I went a bit insane reading the reviews on absorbency, finish, thickness, etc. And now I feel compelled to expand the conversation because those towels, which looked downright beautiful when they arrived, are likely to be tossed onto a pile of rags. Why? In the washing machine they become a lump. I washed all the towels I bought in one load before using them. When I opened the…

I ordered multicolored towels from Aunt Martha so that my kitchen would have yellow and white with red, blue, yellow all the time. I WAS VERY SATISFIED WITH THE BRIGHT COLORS AND THE QUALITY OF THESE TOWELS. THEY FIT VERY WELL ON THE CLOSED BOTTOM AND SIDES, ARE MADE OF HEAVY TOWEL MATERIAL, AND ARE SIZED ENOUGH 12" x 28" with a loop sewn on for hanging. IN MY KITCHEN YOU ARE WELL. Unfortunately, they turned out to be absolutely non-absorbent. ALL THE WATER IS ON THE HANDS AND NOTHING ON THE…
