    No, it`s a fine towel (I really don`t like the shiny edging it has now), especially at the sale price you got it at.

    I ordered some today, too. Even if they`re not the very best around, they`ll do fine as backups. I have some Sonus Ultimate Detailing Towels, essentially the same thing in a smaller size, and they perform relatively well compared to my favorite Perfect Shine Drying Towels - not as good, but not bad by any means.

    At the sale price, I think it`s a pretty good deal. IMO, it`s main pro is also the reason for its main con. It`s a very soft waffle weave, but because of this the towel is very prone to snagging. On it`s first use, one of the Sonus Ultimate Drying towel I purchased got snagged slightly. Normally that`s no big deal since other towels I have snag or get caught also.



    But after I had washed it, it appeared that somehow the hot water during the wash caused that snag to singe (think of taking a flame to a thin piece of plastic, but in this case it was a piece of fiber/thread). It left about a 1 1/2" line that unfortunately was hard enough to mar paint.



    The good thing though was that Autopia`s customer service was excellent and Lynn shipped one out promptly, even though it had been a couple of months since I ordered the item.



    The other towels I`ve used since then (same kind) has never had the same thing occur (they have some little snags here and there too), so maybe it was just a bad towel. If I had to pick one for durability, I would say that the Der Wunder drying towel will last longer, but at the same time it`s not as soft. I really can`t say that one towel is better than another. Ultimately, it would come down to price.

    I have two of them and they work great for me, but you should wash them after every use. I tried using one that i used the previous day (without washing it) and it did not absorb anything.
