To be completely honest, I did not mind spending more money for towels that were thicker and of greater quality. These beach towels are identical to the others I bought this previous summer in a 4 pack for the same price. The 4 pack was actually slightly thicker than these. I think I'm stuck with these since I have removed the tags, however for this price, grab the 4 pack instead, which is the same price! Spend less money.
