I bought these towels as they were described by the seller with "Heavy gastronomic quality". The absorbency and from lint was touted. After unpacking, however, got there first doubt, the towels are so razor thin that the light falls through. After a first attempt to wipe something my suspicion was confirmed, the absorbency of the towel is zero. The seller puts it thus: "We recommend to our pages every - one of mind Einwäsche 2x at a high temperature." Because I wanted to give the towels a chance I did then washed, but with the same result. They suck at anything and always and everywhere left so many fluff that you can not wipe glasses or dishes so with the best intentions. Even as a shoeshine rag they can not be used due to the many fluff. Addressed the seller thinks it this: washed cloths we can no longer take back yes. In a nutshell: The seller says that you can not use the towels without washing. Washes they then (which brings no improvement), he says he no longer takes back washed goods. I'm not the only one which goes like this, the dealer reviews are full of similar complaints. Therefore, best stay away from these rags and Beware of the dubious procedure of trader Castejo Textilvertrieb GmbH.
