Customer Rating: Summary: What will you use these for? 2008-02-05 Comment: In the end, I decided these were fine for my purpose, but I nearly returned them when they first arrived. I purchased 24 to use for everyday in lieu of paper napkins, and they are a good price and quality for this. The problem with ordering a fabric item online is that you can't judge the hand, and the product description does not let you know that these are rather loosely woven and informal in appearance. I had hoped to buy napkins with a sateen finish, but that would probably require some serious ironing. These get pretty crumpled in the wash, and even after being ironed, they are not especially smooth or crisp. The combination of their price and softness make them a good selection for everyday or very casual entertaining, but do not get them for a more formal table.

Customer Rating: Summary: fine dining every day 2007-10-31 Comment: I have chased separate sets of napkins for years. I finally decided to do the restaurant thing and have several sets of a basic napkin I like. Cloth napkins add such a nice feeling to a family meal. The redwood color works perfectly and I love the simplicity of several sets that match.
Comfortable size, great quality. So much healthier for the environment than paper. I also enjoyed the very reasonable price. I am glad I made this investment in my home for my family.
