“Towels are mostly good - fairly absorbent and dry quickly but they snag. Also while they are not caked with sand or anything, they are not sand-free either after a day at the beach. We only use ours at the beach.”
Hello, Thank you for your valuable review. We're very sorry to hear about the issue with your towels. We recommend soaking the towels in cold water for a few hours or overnight and hang drying them. Natural cotton needs to be "broken in", which allows the fibers to bloom, be softer and reach maximum absorbency with better performance. Succeeding washes: Gentle cycle on your washing machine and dry at a low heat on the dryer. IMPORTANT: Avoid fabric softeners and dryer sheets as they gunk up the fibers making them less absorbent. And of course, avoid bleach! If this trick fails to work, please do let us know. We are always happy to help you! Warm regards, Cathy, Sand Cloud.
“The dimensions are listed as approximately 36 x 69 and they are not even close. Ours were 32 x 65 1/2 and I think for the price we paid, we got ripped off.”
Hello Ann, Thank you for your valuable review! The size of towels vary depending on the intricacy of the design and the complexity of the weaves used. Sometimes the measurements are adjusted to accommodate the specific design. Hence each towel is unique and can't be compared with the other. We will be passing along this information to the appropriate department as we are continuously learning and growing. Warm Regards, Cathy, Sand Cloud.
“I purchased the bundle prior to our beach vacay. The towels didn’t disappoint! Sand doesn’t adhere to them and they are also great to use when the nights get chilly. Amazing purchase!”
“I Just received my order of the Pearl Bundle and couldn’t be more pleased! These towels are amazing! I will definitely be ordering more! LOVE LOVE LOVE!”
“These towels are large, and to my surprise, they are definitely sand-free! After many days at the beach in salt water and sand, they never got sandy or carried up any additional sand with them. I even used them to wrap myself in when cold. Very versatile!”
“The design is beautiful. They are soft, absorbent & quick drying. They shake off sand very easily. BUT -- When I read the washing instructions, I was a little bummed. They say "Machine wash on cold, gentle cycle. Hang to dry." Now I feel like I have to wash these towels in a separate load from my regular towels... and who wants to HANG four soaking wet towels??? I still love them, but washing/drying is a pain in the butt.”
