Review (4/5): Very much like these.
We really like these, have some for the whole family. However one out of six came with the seam coming apart, that's the one I use. Too much trouble to send back and exchange it but it hasn't caused further degradation with the seam missing. I'm thinking the seam is more to satisfy our expectation that clothes, clothing and such require seams to keep them from unraveling than to prevent to actually prevent this the product from fraying.
