I bought a pack of these from Amazon two years ago and they have been in daily use. Sure, they have a few small stains now, as tends to happen with white cotton - I probably need to use Vanish Oxy or similar (puts on the job list!). However, they are brilliant and I wouldn't buy anything else as inferior/cheaper tea towels would be a false economy. No smears on my wine glasses and only a quick wipe needed to remove all wetness from dishes. I get so frustrated at my partners house, drying the dishes with a cotton-mix fluffy tea towel which simply moves the moisture around the plates without actually absorbing it!
And that's why I'm here as I offered to order some of these for him. Sadly they are out of stock until the Spring and I would love to know as soon as they are available.
