I have not used these towels yet, so I'm not 100% sure how they will be.  However, they are very soft and I like that they are completely flat....there is no "banding" on the edges that has a tendency to seize up with repeated washings/use.  The color I purchased was called "brick".  I took a gamble that the color would be like it was depicted on my monitor....which, to me, was certainly more coral than brick.  I'm glad I did!  These towels are a very beautiful coral color and coordinate beautifully with the bath mat I purchased.
