Pool Towel Recommendations

[joeprunc]

Now that we have a new pool and summer is coming, I'd like to upgrade all of our towels.

On any given day how many towels will you go through?
Recommendations of towel company? (Amazon is a Crud shoot)...recommend quantity or quality?

Costco towels are great....they sell beach towels in spring to summer.
Look at Landsend and LLBean also.

I have "inherited" more towels than I ever purchased. They just appear after folks swim and no one claims them later.

I have thick gorgeous ones, but for little kids I prefer the thinner, cheaper ones as they're easier to wash and dry frequently. They wrap nicely over the urchins too.

We go through one towel per person per day. Generally, it will dry all or most of the way if you drape it over a chair when not in use. We buy them from Costco. I think bigger is better.

I'm a huge fan of the Turkish towels. They take a moment to get used to, since they aren't plush, but the roll up really small for storage and dry in a flash.

We went "cheap" with Wal-Mart beach towels....lol They work good enough.

Here in Laughlin, no towels are needed. About 30 seconds out of the pool you are dry. No humidity and 120F temperature dries you right out!

2nd turkish towels. Big, soft, very versatile.

I second Costco. Their bath towels are great too.

Also, for the pool, I get a ULine beach towel as a free offer if you spend a certain amount on their website. Every time I order something for work through Uline, I always make sure I reach the threshold for the free beach towel. They are huge and very absorbent, but do have a little Uline logo on them.

Costco towels for us, we love ‘em.

I've seen a lot of good reviews around the Turkish Style Towels. However I was thinking they were better for beach visits as they don't collect sand. I've been debating the Turkish vs traditional. But my wife big, soft, and plush towels.

I've been looking at Pottery Barn towels...$$$ but look so big and soft.

We love our pool Costco towels and they have held up really well with all summer long use in Arizona.
