First thing, the wash-cloths are quite good. More than adequate really. Where I quibble is the description "heavy duty". I have bought truly thick wash-cloths in the past, these aren't there. But these are the thickest I have found in recent years. I use them for kitchen counter cleaning duty mainly and they are more than up to that task and they seem to be well-made compared to the cheap thin ones. I only give the product 4 stars out of 5 because I don't think heavy duty is completely accurate. But if you are looking for a really good wash-cloth for kitchen clean-up (or bathroom use) these are definitely worth the money.
