The $25 Bath Towel Set Amazon Reviewers Can’t Stop Gushing About
A relaxing shower or bath can be almost as restorative as a good night’s sleep. But nothing ruins the moment like stepping out of the tub and wrapping yourself in a thin, scratchy towel—or worse, one that leaves you covered in lint. Still, when it comes to buying hotel-quality, high thread-count towels for your bathroom, spending $50 (or more) on a single bath towel can seem, well, a little indulgent.
It doesn’t have to be. You can score top-rated towels on Amazon for less than $25. And that price is for a set of eight (two bath towels, two hand towels, and four washcloths), not just a single bath towel!
The aptly named Utopia Towels set has earned rave reviews, averaging 4.3 stars out of 5, with a whopping 2,800 five-star reviews. Sure, they’re not on par with the ultra-luxe towels you might find at a five-star resort, but customers agree that they’re a fantastic value. They praise the softness of the 100% cotton towels, with many saying they’d ordered multiple sets. One outdoorsy customer even plans to give the towels an upgrade: “Was honestly not expecting much based off of the price, but figured they would be perfect for the camper. When it comes time to replace the towels for our house, I will be ordering more.”
The best part? The towels are super-absorbent and they “don’t leave little tufts of material all over you, and the color never dulled,” wrote one reviewer.
Prices for the set depend on which of the eight available colors you pick. Grey is the cheapest at $20.99, but beige is only a few dollars more ($24.45). “Still, for the price these towels are a bargain,” noted one customer.
Some reviewers caution that you should initially wash and dry these with other towels, as “your first few washings…these will shed lint.” However, others say the lint is “no more that I would have expected for a first time washing.”
Put simply: No, these towels likely won’t make you feel like you’ve just stepped out of the Jacuzzi on your private veranda at the Four Seasons, but they’re soft cotton towels that come at an unbeatable price.
As one reviewer summed it up, “Just order them before [the] price goes up in the future.”
