REVIEW FOR: Butterfly Print 4-PackORDER DATE: 10/9/2024.PAID: $17.59. (This was a brief sale off the Full price of $21.99. Less than a month later, they're at $25!)BEST USE: Decorative use. Lint-free drying of fine or delicate pieces. They'd make fabulous cafe curtains, letting lots of light through but providing privacy.SUMMARY: This is a top notch 5-Star product, where price is my only quibble. I have not washed them yet, but I expect fine results, unlike cheaper options which can lose their shape, and refuse to fold "squarely". They are even thinner than the other printed Urban Villa tea towels in 6-packs. I considered removing one star for the high price for ONLY FOUR TEA TOWELS, but the price is not completely out of line for this quality, with details like mitered corners, and a very fine, smooth tightly woven fabric.I waited weeks for this item to go on sale. I still wasn't particularly happy to pay over $17 for four, but I found these to have a unique charm, and therefore worth it. Had they been cheaper, I would have purchased more.I purchased this set entirely for the CHARMING RETRO FLORAL PRINT. I'll keep two, because I love beautiful tea towels. I'll give two to my mom, who decorates with (but never uses, haha) her pretty tea towels.HIGHLIGHTS:- LOVELY SIMPLE FLORAL print that's a little retro, reminds you of your grandmother's kitchen. They call this print 'Butterfly', but *Floral* is the impression it makes from any distance.- EXTREMELY THIN, BUT QUALITY fabric. The towels in this 4-pack are thinner than the other thin printed towels (in 6-packs) on this Urban Villa page, eg, the Tulips, which themselves are much thinner than the "woven" striped towels (where you can see the colored threads of the stripes on both sides of the towels). These are not "flour sack" towels, which have a particular look and feel, but they seem about that thin. They would provide lint-free drying of fine or fragile things. They would be gorgeous converted to kitchen cafe curtains.- MITERED CORNERS convey their "premium" quality. (Notice the angled seam at the corner in my photo of the hanging loop.)- "SELF" FABRIC LOOP for hanging, rather than a strip of cotton webbing that some other Urban Villa printed towels have. Nicely done.- TIGHT WEAVE: These are very tightly woven with fine thread giving these towels a smooth soft finish and rendering a remarkably strong fabric.- LIMITATIONS: There's really no cushioning and extremely limited absorbency, because of how thin the fabric is. For example, I wouldn't lay this on a granite countertop and set my wineglasses upside-down to dry, because I'd want more cushioning simply to place them down.

I love these kitchen towels! Happy to find them in just the right colors and a fabric that is actually absorbent. Not sure what's going on with fabric processing especially with other kitchen towels since most are NOT absorbent, even when 100% cotton!?! I still have some I purchased as little as a couple of years ago to some that are several years old and most have gone to the rag/work pile because they just don't absorb water as they should.NOT these pretty towels -- they washed well, and have been absorbent from the beginning. As pictured, I keep one hanging on the cabinet door under my kitchen sink so it's handy and can dry quickly after usage. They work well for drying dishes, hands and countertops if necessary. They are a generous size and the texture is what I like for kitchen use!AND for the quality I've experienced with them, the price is terrific!!! No more crappy, non-absorbent towels from the 'warehouse store' for me!!!

Great dish towels, large and absorbent. Also very colorful!

They’re lovely and can be used to decorate nicely. But I certainly wouldn’t reach for these when there’s a spill.Durable. Color hasn’t run, they wash well. And the texture is quite nice. However, they are just rather thin and not ideal to use for messes.

I bought these to wrap specialty breads in for holiday hostess gifts. They're large enough for a big round loaf, and bright attractive colors. The towels are nice and thick, and perfect for the purpose.

Absorbent and colorful. These towels are excellent for hand-drying; they work like bar towels. The colorful pattern is really nice as well. I will re-order, but they are very durable so it might be a while.

Unfortunately water just beads right off the towel. It does eventually absorb water but too slow. I can’t use it to dry dishes.It is so beautiful, however, and I also thick and sturdy enough so I use it to handle hot pots and pans. Also to let washed dishes sit on it.I think I can use it to wrap breads too. I’m hoping it won’t absorb oil (from bread) too fast so it won’t stain.

Beautiful colors and pattern, generously sized, wash and dry without shrinking. I am a happy customer 😊

Ces linges à vaisselle sont tout simplement ravissants!

Nice colours

These are great towels

Love these towels. It has been a very long long time since I have bought quality towels. They are large, soft, strong and great for drying dishes. I have actually purchased a few sets. I am sure they will last a long time.

These really are the best towels I have purchased in Years. They have a nice color, strong, soft, big and are great for drying dishes. I did purchase a second set.
