Kassatex 100-Percent Combed Extra Long Staple Turkish Cotton from Our Urbane Collection 6-Piece Solid Towel Set, Spa Blue

(updated 1 year or so hence)Coveting towels?I am afraid so.I just had an immediate liking and wanting for these towels.It was beyond my control....I just really liked them..I still do. BUT....Butt....I ordered the color "BRICK" and as advertised that there is a "reddish brick" .... no two ways about that.Now what I actually GOT....was NOT this Reddish Brick" color....rathe mine are sort of a medium strong reddish salmon color.Two different animals for sure.NOW....it does happen that I actually do like this strongly subdued version and is not a real problem for me personally.However....someone else might not be so forgiving in the laxness of the visual actual color they get.I will post an image on the product listing of the color discrepancy.No huge thing but I was surprised and others should be aware of this.On the other hand.....I really like these towels....and will buy more if they in fact hold up well as expected..The other minor thing is unique to myself probably, but is worth mentioning for the finicky at heart.Certainly NOT their fault:The "ribs" go Horizontally across the width of the towel.For some reason I was expecting them to be Vertical Ribs.It really doesn't matter...I still really like these towels either way.Other than the "COLOR" thing....these are so far really nice....we are still in the Honeymoon period with these and will update if a divorce becomes sought.Right now though....these are really "nice" ....they just are Not....Reddish brick at the slightest.....they are Salmon Brickish ... call me finicky I guess.Will buy again..(the Updated part).SO...did I buy them again?.... yes.They are great towels.As time passes I keep adding a few pair to the stash.The main thing I am realizing though is that while colors are "nice" they also present problems with color reactions to bleach and cleaners.The most pleasing and simple for me personally (without making sacrifices) is just to stay with the "Natural" color.This color always looks great and is forgiving, and always versatile.Given the choice (which I have been given) I am inclined to migrate over time to the clean simple beauty of what they call "Natural"Colors are nice but present problems and complications I frankly can live without.These towels have earned a place in my heart and they are great .... why mess with a great thing by introducing colors ?They look and feel regal on their own and in their "natural" state.They don't need to dress up in assorted colors to be luxurious, supple and beautifully attractive all on their own.Keep it simple, you will be impressed..

Be aware or should I say BEWARE!! The Kassatex bath set sheds lint like crazy!! I washed them in the normal setting before using as I do everything I purchase, and I had to clean the dryer lint filter three times during the drying cycle. Be cautious about your dryer and do not mix with any other items for at least the first washing and drying. I have found from experience that this is a characteristic common to products from Turkey and India. Hopefully, the shedding will diminish. The bath set is nice, I enjoy using them, the colors are pretty (I purchased three) and I like them a lot. I am not sure yet about colorfastness as I've only washed them once.

Unlike other reviewers, my husband and I don't find these particularly soft. They absorb okay, but they aren't as soft as my aunt's towels or some towels we've had at hotels (and oddly, at those hotels, it isn't all the towels that are soft, so I guess they use different brands or replace some and not others at a given time). I still am hoping to someday find really soft towels that don't shed fluff.

Make no mistake, this bath set is quite nice and of superior quality. However the color, I purchased lead, was totally off. The set is more of a funky green/greyish color. Totally did not match my bathroom but I'm keeping them anyway due to the quality.

In December I was looking for towels that were a bit more upscale than my usual serviceable Target brand, but I lacked the $$$ to go really, really upscale. I found these (about $72 for a six-piece set), and I'm glad I did! The towels are soft, attractive (you can't call the graphite shade I chose "pretty"), and most importantly, wear very, very well. After weekly washings for six months, these towels look brand new. I hope Kassatex will be making these towels forever.

you -YOU DO NOT LOVE A ITEM- that is supposed to be reserved for fellow beings , preferably sentient ones. Also your requirement for x numbers of words is STUPID , whoever designed that requirement should be examined.

I like these towels but I wish I would have just bought another set without the ribs. While these are nice they just don't fluff up like the non ribbed set by kassatex.

Loved the weight and color of the towels. Was disappointed on third washing the side seams began unravel on a couple of the face towels. I mended these and have had no other problems.
