How quickly does the bath size air dry? Thinking of using the towel for a week long bicycling trip.

I'd give it a half hour on a moderate-temperature day. If you're in a warmer climate, probably 10-15 minutes. Colder climate will take much longer, most likely.

I used it for showers while back packing. I think it dries fairly quick. It depends on the moisture in the air, but I was really impressed, I didn't notice how long it took to dry but I also never noticed it being damp for too long.

I am not sure, I do not dry bath towels on it . Otherwise I am very happy with the product.

I'd say standard weight works alright with the faster pace vinyasas. Some students are happy with a standard beach towel, but I find myself with six yoga towels now. The latest ones I got are Plush and the Extra Long (XL) Yoga Rat ones. I fold the ends under the rubber mat and find it my best solution yet. Having a towel meander or bunch up doesn't ruin my day, but I sure do enjoy having nice towels.

it takes two secs to wipe it down with a towel. I don't know of any water proof bags that big but bed bath and beyond . com sells a laundry bag back pack that is the perfect size for transporting it and is CHEAP like $10

It depends on the activities the person does! I do yoga and travel so the beach size is perfect for me and when it folds is very small. I guess you could go one size smaller which will be a bathroom towel. Hope this helps.

I've never used mine since I'm saving it for when the power goes out. However, it'll probably fit one bath towel in it. You probably should soak it for at least a half hour during the wash cycle to ensure it gets really clean.

This is the first time I've used one. But we used them for a week as our only bathing towel & there was no smell. They dry quickly too.

I personally can't compare it to the older version, but would say during my use over a weekend at the beach where it got wet and had some sunny time and shady time on the laundry line it had a lot of potential to stink but never really did. I washed the towels pretty quickly when we got home as well. Just take care of it! I machine wash on a gentler cycle and then have done the dryer with no heat (dries quickly with a small load) and it's holding up well so far.

I use this towel 4 times a week at my "hot yoga" class (105 degress)--it is super absorbant and does not slip when wiping sweat. I love it!

Hi Rachel, our towels are often slightly damp to begin with, having been hung in the bathroom, and there seems to be no issue. That includes running consecutive cycles of heat sometimes. Of course, you'd want to wipe out the interior from time to time with a damp cloth and some soap to keep the germs at bay. Our towels, however, are never soaking wet. BTW, I iron my shirt and pants each weekday morning and during the colder months will put them into the warmer for a few minutes after ironing to keep them heated prior to putting everything on. A nice touch!!

Hi yes, but the truth is the towels get pretty hot really fast! so I find that I am turning it of when I am almost done with my client. I put fresh towels in and when the next client comes by the time I need my first towel they are pretty hot! Good luck. Lori

We use it in the tub and it is dry the next day. It is pretty quick as the beads inside don't hold the water. Just make sure to squeeze the head too in order to get an water out.

Hmmm, I would think it would need to be aired out - it is supper absorbent but would need to breath some to air out.I would buy one and get it shipped to you and then see what you think. And I have the 16-32 but think the 20x40 or 24x48 would work well for full body once or twice over drying. -Jimmy-

Maybe...probably. If the unit is in a weather protected area (mostly NOT raining) it would be a nice way to warm towels. Here's the thing though (and has nothing to do with being outside or inside) you won't be able to load it with big towels. Regular sized bath towels are okay and even at that...only two at most. The warming function shuts off after about 30 mins so plan accordingly. I have been satisfied so far.

Yes, wet towels will be very hot after 15-20 minutes when put in wet. It works very well.

From my experience it absorbs fast. It dries out moderately slow. If wet from stepping out of a shower, probably several hours to dry minimum. If washed, I dry it in my dryer for 1hour med heat and lay it out rubber side up for 30+ min for rubber backing to dry.

I have washed it serval times but, I do not use the heat dry cycle to save enegry.its works well for me.
