Thomas O'Brien Vintage Modern Reversible Towels Review

For the longest time I have been searching for the perfect baby blue/chocolate brown colored towels for my bathroom.  A couple months ago, I thought I found them at Target - Thomas O'Brien Vintage Modern Reversible Towels.  Although the colors are perfect, the towels are not at all what I expected.

These towels seemed great in the beginning because they were very, very soft!  By far the softest and fluffiest towels I had ever used.  However, even after multiple washes, they STILL leave lint on your skin!  I definitely can't put my contacts in after drying my hands on these towels; I have to wash my hands and put my contacts in with wet hands.

Although the lint problem is bad, these towel's problems don't stop there.  The towels are reversible, so one side is baby blue and the other side is chocolate brown.  The loops in the terry of these towels are so large, that they snag very easily.  Unfortunately, when they snag they pull the opposite color through to the other side, so you have a baby blue side with chocolate brown snags pulled through and a chocolate brown side with baby blue snags.  Besides lint and snags, these Thomas O'Brien Vintage Modern Reversible Towels have pilled more than any other towel I have ever used.  I think their softness and fluffiness are working as a disadvantage because I'm sure that is why they are pilling so easily.

It figures I finally found the perfect colored towels for my bathroom, and they are poor-quality.  Honestly, I think their luxuriousness is the root of most of their problems.  If they weren't so soft, they wouldn't pill or leave lint behind, and if they weren't so fluffy, they wouldn't snag so easily.  I wouldn't recommend them and wouldn't buy this brand again.
