The two towels are kind of a microfibre sort of feel to them, making them absorbent, and great for drying your hands and your pots, pans, dishes etc. I like the color, pattern and feel of them a lot. Oh and they come with a loop on one corner to use to hang up your tea towels.The oven gloves also have a loop to hang them from. Likable grey colour to match or co-ordinate with most kitchen colour schemes. The oven gloves feel comfy and decently padded. They do their job of protecting your hands from being burnt, so watch more do you need from oven gloves!On a negative one of the towels has little holes in it for some reason, perhaps a problem/fault how it has been made. I guess when I wash it the holes may grow larger, I suppose if that happens I can use part of it as a dishcloth so its not going to be totally wasted.
