The Alwina Turkish cotton towel set arrived quickly and in good condition, the color I chose was green and it's a lovely light green. After washing, the towels were very soft, with no linting, and they appear well-made. They are a medium heftyness, though, so if you are looking for high density, luxurious towels, these are not the ones, and they strangly have a "front and back side ",  a decorator would notice.  Good for everyday use, though. I wouldn't discourage buying them.
