These $6 Towels Are So 'Comfy,' One Shopper Bought the Set 'Three Times Already'
They’re extremely absorbent and get softer with each wash.

Let’s be honest. Indulging in a relaxing hot bath is every woman’s favorite pastime, and if you have an overpacked schedule with work and kids, it may be the only time you truly have to yourself. You never want your bath time to end, and if it wasn’t for the grotesque waste of water, you’d even make your showers last half an hour or more. (I’m right there with you.)
Now, you can extend your self-care time in luxury with Turkish cotton bath towels. Gone are the days of emerging from the bath into a cold bathroom and wrapping yourself in a stiff-from-the-wash, cardboard-like towel. Instead, envelope your body in supple goodness of ultra-soft turkish cotton like this set by American Soft Linen and continue your skincare routine—still wrapped in your comfy towel—before it’s back to “game on.”

I used to think all bath towels were created equal until I learned about Turkish cotton. This long-fiber cotton is grown solely in the Aegean Region and is softer than regular cotton but lighter and quicker-drying than Egyptian cotton. Sounds expensive, right? Maybe so, but Amazon’s American Soft Linen’s Six-Piece Towel Set lowers the barrier of entry for those of us who love to luxuriate during our bath time.
This cotton towel set includes two bath towels, two hand towels, and two washcloths. Every single one is incredibly soft and fluffy, according to several online shoppers. One five-star reviewer praised the quality saying, “It’s truly a towel of craftsmanship. It’s comfy and heavyweight…and you can use it over 100+ times. I’ve bought this set three times already.”
American Soft Linen’s towels boast a 600 GSM (grams per square meter) weight, which is thick enough to be plush, yet thin enough to dry quickly. They are also made of long ringspun cotton fibers to improve absorbency, so you can wrap up and relax after showering. These towels are Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified, too, ensuring they are free of harmful chemicals and substances, making them safe for the whole family.
Another shopper calls this Turkish cotton towel “a serious towel,” adding, “With hair that falls close to the backs of my knees, it helps to have a big towel to wrap it in when I get out of the shower…After nearly half a year, these towels are still thick, absorb well, and don't show obvious signs of wear.”
I don’t know about you, but with over 43,000 five-star reviews and at the price of $40 (normally $80), I think I’ll upgrade the towels in all my bathrooms. This Fourth of July sale is too good to pass up, especially if it uplevels my sacred bathtime routine for just $7 apiece.
