Quick Drying Bath Towels – Energy Saver

I decided to do a financial blog today and you might think what do bath towels have to do with finance?

Well plenty since the clothes dryer takes a lot of energy to dry thick fluffy towels.  With quick drying towels, energy is saved and it will reflect in your monthly electric bill.

I decided to test this out in my home by purchasing four light gray bath towels which were advertised as quick drying.

Fast Drying Sculpted Bath Towels

I ordered these from one of my favorite stores and everything arrived nicely packed.  The bath towels are 100% organic Turkish cotton and are little thinner than my regular bath towels.  However, the towels are generously sized being 28-inches wide and 55-inches long.  They are a nice gray color and are soft to the touch with a waffle weave.

The towels were on sale marked down from $32.50 per towel to $15.97 per towel.

Quick Drying Towels and Table Runner

The towels also meet Global Organic Textile Standards which mean they are safe to use, meet strict requirements, and make for a healthy home.  They were made in Portugal.

Absorbency and Use – I washed the towels before using them.  They are still a little brisk feeling but I think they need another washing or two, to soften them up some.  I also like the extra large size.  The neutral color looks nice in my bathroom.

Summing Up Results – The quick drying towels are true to their advertising, drying more quickly than the other towels I own.

By using these towels, I will definitely save some money in the long run on my dryer bills.

 

Towels and Table Runner

For Your Information – Also pictured is a white table runner I also purchased at the same time.  The basic table runner is made out of a cotton linen blend and is 18 x 100 inches long.  It is very soft to the touch.

I will get lots of use from it for my holiday celebrations when used alone or with a table cloth.

The table runner is a little long for my table, but if I tie the ends up with ribbon, it should work out fine.
