I have to admit though, Christie towels do last a long, long time. We still have some from 20 years ago.

Ours are sort of mid-priced ..I think. Hand towels and flannel the same colour.

This was not for snobbish reasons but l wanted the best quality at a decent price as l find they last longer!!
I have so many towels that l think they will see me out!!
What about you? Do you buy quality towels, or do you buy any towels that you think will serve the purpose?

Re: Please Tell Me About Your Towels... Quality Or Cheap?
I like big towels and buy bath sheets rather than bath towels. Only use hand towels in the downstairs WC and I usually go to John Lewis when they have a sale. I like the fluffy, heavy ones and at the moment a lot of my towels are pale chocolate colour, but I don't mind most colours, except blue and yellow. Like Muddy does, when they get old, they are used for dog towels. Dogs seem to have more than just now. I always dry my towels in the tumble dryer and never use softener - I like them nice and soft and absorbent.

Re: Please Tell Me About Your Towels... Quality Or Cheap?
I prefer rough towels as I swim almost every day and like to get really dry after the pool, I find the expensive thick fluffy ones just don't do the job. So the last ones I got when I was in Perth came from Dunelm Mill, not expensive but not wee thin things either, after a few very hot washes with no softener they became a lot rougher and now do the job fine. I go through a lot of towels in a week as my OH wants a clean one each time.....Fine in the good weather but a pest in the winter when I can't put them out to dry. Also go through a lot of towels with the dog in the wet and living in the far north.......It's more than a bit wet at times.
