I was a little bit sceptical about ordering these as they were cheap and you got 2. But going on the reviews, I thought I may as well rather than spending 3 times the amount on a branded name and only get 1.Washed 2 cars today, one medium size and one large, and I was amazed. Each cloth did one car comfortably and didn't need to ring it out once, though I did try but unlike a leather it held the water.The ease of drying the cars was far better than using a leather, must of cut the time by a 2 thirds.Washed the cloths in the washing machine straight afterwards and they've come out like new again.Great buy, and I would definitely recommend. Don't waste money on the branded names.

When I first opened the box, I was a bit annoyed as whilst the cloths looked lovely and were a generous size, they weren't as soft as I had expected. I had just bought a second hand car and wanted to give it a nice clean to make it look new again, so was pretty worried I might scratch the paint work. I had been tempted to send them back at this point, only my dad was adamant he wanted them for the kitchen cos they are a pretty yellow colour and good size and quality.Thus, they sat on the sideboard for a bit until I was desperate enough to clean my car and decided to risk it. I cut off the labels in case they were scratchy and saw the cloths were mostly polyester (I believe). I thought polyester was pretty hydrophobic (like those microfibre cloths that just move the water around) and wondered how that would dry my car, but I turned out to be very wrong.I filled a tub with some soapy water and dunked one cloth in as a cleaning cloth. It was brill for gently scrubbing bits off tar off without scratching. I could use both hands on the cloth and swirl it round the car panels as it was large enough to bunch up a bit. It made pretty quick work especially compared to a sponge. Then after a thorough rinse of the car, I dried it with the other cloth (good thing they send you two) and it was so nice and easy. I dried the whole car and the cloth was a bit wet, but not like you could ring it out or anything (not fully saturated). For size comparison, my car is a large-ish hatchback. I used the same cloth to clean the inside trim round the doors, since it was damp but still clean.I chucked both cloths through the wash with my normal laundry. I would very much recommend you don't do this lol, as they were obviously dirty with oil and muck that means they should have been washed seperately. Would be a good idea to throw in some stain remover or extra soap too, cos they came out a little greyed and kind of contaminated some of my other cloths I had put in with it. My fault, anyone who is used to cleaning their car with a cloth probably already knows to wash them seperately and with a strong detergent, but since I usually use a sponge, I didn't think of it.These cloths are brill and would also be really pretty as kitchen towels, or good for drying pets after a walk. They are a waffle weave and look pretty durable. I imagine it's worth keeping one in the car as they have a hundred uses. Tempted to buy another pack!I can't see any scratches or swirls on my car after cleaning it, but it's only been a day or so and I haben't seen it in all lights. Provisionally, looks like it did a great job (bare in mind, this review has been left after one use cos I'm unlikely to clean my car again for a while lol). Also probably quite good for using with scratch remover, which usually recommends a waffle texture cloth (I imagine for the non-abrasive scrubbing power), however, I used a smaller cloth I had that was similar because it was easier to handle.

These are equally as good as the more expensive ones available at a High Street retailer, good absorbancey and great value

Bought these for my wife as a replacement fit a very tired chamois cloth. My wife is very fussy when cleaning her car she was absolutely amazed at the absorbency she thought they were brilliant

I was in need of something to dry my car after washing it and found it difficult to find a chamois (genuine or synthetic) that would do a good job of soaking up water while being very gentle on the paint etc. I then came across these towels and being affordable, though not cheap, I thought I would give them a go.After the first use I am very, very impressed with the amount of water they will soak up, and how they leave a streak and lent free surface more or less in one go. The towels are quite big (I might actually prefer them a little smaller) and one towel will dry my entire medium sized estate vehicle, after having allowed the water to run off naturally for a few minutes after rinsing. Since they come 2 to the pack you then have the second towel to do any additional drying of e.g. hard to reach places, and the drips that I always seem to get from the housing of the mirrors, along with any other final buffing or wiping down that you might need.So far I have only used them this one time, but they are machine washable and should be just s good as new after having been washed at a maximum of 40 degrees. I would recommend not to use fabric softener when washing these towels as this can make them less absorbent, and I would also recommend to wash them after every use, to reduce the possibility of small particles contaminating the towels, and potentially scratching you paint.

I bought these for bathing my large poodle,when I took them out of the packaging I was very doubtful they would work and I am glad to say they worked a treat,a quick rub and she was able to walk out of the bathroom and shake as much as she wanted without splashing water all over the walls,durability I will update as only got them today but quality is good so will be buying more

As others have said, the description of these cloths is misleading at best. Yes ok, they're part of the Basics range, but if you call a cloth thick, it still needs to be thick. These are not. They'll be useful for household duties but as a car drying towel, which is what they were intended for, they're just not up to the job.

If you are getting into detailing, you've probably read/watched that the old chamois is an outdated and potentially dangerous (for your car!) method of drying your paintwork. Dirt gets trapped in the chammy and then has nowhere to go, ultimately getting dragged over the paint and causing swirls and scratches.Drying with a thick, fluffy microfibre is the way to go. Or so I thought. I bought a plush towel from Amazon and used it a couple times, finding that there was always some water/streaks being left on the paint. So I bought these drying towels on the strength of the reviews, and have found them to be the best way of drying the car after a wash. They really are very absorbent and don't leave streaks. I only needed a single towel to dry the entire car, folding it over a few times when one side became saturated.Try it and see for yourself. They are brilliant!
