I got the light gray ones & they are attractive. I'm not sure they are worth more than some lower cost towels, but I'm happy with my purchase. I do wish they offered the towels separately because I really don't need so many washcloths but bought 2 sets to get 4 towels. Ideally I'd have 2 more towels, but since I already have some dark gray towels, I'm going to stick with what I got because I don't want more washcloths!!!
