There is a customer image that shows an incredible amount of dryer lint from these towels. Is everyone experiencing this problem?

Yes, they are terrible! I've had them for over a year and still get a ton of lint from the lint filter. I would never buy them again!

The towels are extremely absorbant despite the very tight weave. These are the best towels I have ever bought, anywhere, and I am 76 years old, so I have bought a few towels in my life. They DO take a little longer to dry than less tightly woven towels, but in my opinion, it is well worth the weight to have towels that are so cheaply made you can almost see through them! I bought these when the NOT inexpensive set of towels I purchased from JC Penney were so sleazy I returned them with a letter about exactly what I think of the poor quality of their merchandise in the past several years. One used to be able to count on JCP for quality merchandise, but sadly, this is no longer true. I was delighted to find the Pinzon towels. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that they are NOT made in China...... :)

I bought them for their absorbency and workhorse quality. For show? Perhaps if they were freshly washed. I don't do much for show so can't really comment.

Ummmmm, they're okay. Out of the dryer, they're gorgeous, but I wouldn't let them sit in the dryer all day and expect anything other than a rumply mess. Hope that helps!

Haven't noticed it yet. My husband only uses them at night. He doesn't move much. They are washed, bleached double rinsed daily. You cannot use a dryer or the waterproofing wears off. Hope this was helpful.

I did not have this problem. My dish towels were quite absorbent, even though they are very thin. I also do not use fabric softener when I dry them.

Yes these towels really are made from linen and they do a superb job of cleaning (in general) and drying (especially glassware of any kind). Totally lint free, absorbent, and they just work super well.

No, that is the beauty of them. They are like thick plush towels but for the floor. Perfect to wash, without rubber coming off in the dryer. I love mine!!! I will be buying more.

Yes they are. I believe my favorable review did mention these towels were "politically incorrect", which was meant to be a reference to the Kochs. While I am appalled by these guys, I was asked to review Brawny towels, not their manufacturer. If you wish to boycott Koch Brothers' products, go to http://www.boycottkochbrothers.com/ for a list.

Yes, they are very, very washed. They used to be good, but they are garbage now. Not to mention, the customer service is deplorable.

Yes, they are lint free after washing. I love these flour sack towels, I've purchased them twice over the years and they're very sturdy and large!

We have not expierenced this problem. Have them on deep mattress and have washed many times and they are holding up very well.

All textiles will give off lint in the dryer. These are better than most, so I would say no.

They do have a lot of lint.......haven't found a towel that doesn't.....the Egyptian cotton is the best towels I have found and these specific ones are just great......I now have six and plan to order more. I think the amount of lint will diminish with each washing.....but think you will always have lint from them. Hope this is helpful.....I would suggest you try a couple (they come in twos) and I believe you will be very happy with them.

I would not recommend these towels to anyone....they are crap. They are made out of the same material that bed sheets are made of. They do not absorb water at all and you can't even use them as hand towels. If you do buy these, just don't get them too dirty and use bleach when you wash them. Sorry for the negativity, but I thought you should know.

I wash with towels, cold water and bleach. I use dryer balls or dryer sheets. They are holding up really well.
