Griot's products tend to be durable & well-made. They’re expensive, yes, but they do last and perform reliably. Very pleased with this towel.

When used properly it dries well and is streak free! This one cloth can dry off my whole car after the final rinse.

I have a full size SUV and already have Griots 55596 extra large PFM drying towel which I absolutely love. I purchased this towel to have as 2nd towel. This towel is good, but not like the 55596 extra large PFM towel that I have. It’s a little thinner and smaller , but I knew that going in. It still did a good job drying my SUV, but got a little saturated. I’m still giving this drying towel 5 stars, but it’s probably better for a car not a full size SUV.

This is a great drying towel, just drape it over the car ease off and it takes the water with it.

I purchased this towel back in March when I picked up a classic Porsche. It was expensive ($20+) which I didn't mind spending as Griot's has a good reputation. I've meant to write a review of this towel each time I wash one of my Porsches and I forget about it, till I use it the next time - that was yesterday. Before I ordered this towel, I was at my local Walmart and I picked up some items and they had a waffle-type drying towel for $5 bucks or so and I grabbed one on a whim. The car was delivered and I set out the next day to do a complete wash, clay bar treatment, some paint restoration and a good wax. I washed the car and began "drying" with the Griot's... it didn't work all that well - it was useless after just the hood. I grabbed the cheap Walmart towel and it did the rest of the car. I'm not recommending getting a cheap, no name, Walmart towel... I just bring it up as an example to show that a poor quality towel out performed the Griot's. I have since picked up some Meguiar's waffle-type microfiber towels and they work phenomenally. As of yesterday, I have retired the Griot's to drying my rims as it's basically garbage. It's almost as if water is repelled from the towel! By the way, I clean all of my towels after I use them and they all perform just fine after a "proper" wash. Will this one product from Griot's effect how I view their other products? I think so. I haven't purchased anything else from them, but I have purchased plenty of other outstanding products from other top companies so I see no reason to take the risk of finding another under performing product.

I am reasonably meticulous (some would say compulsive) about keeping my car clean and shiny - it's a Bimmer with rather soft, bright red non-metallic paint, 20 years old and still looks close to new as a result of my car care regimen. I bought one of these Griot's towels through amazon a few years ago and am well satisfied with its ability to absorb lots of water and dry my car without lint or streaking.Here, for what it's worth, is how I make the most of it: (1) wash car well with Meguiar's #62 car wash shampoo, P21s conditioning shampoo or similar top quality cleaner; (2) after rinsing well, open out a large egyptian cotton bath sheet and using only the weight of the towel, pull the towel over the hood, windshield, roof, rear window and trunk of the car -- from nose to tail -- to 'squegee' the water off the flat surfaces of the car; (3) with the car still just slightly damp, mist the car with Griot's "spray on wax"; (4) use this towel first to dry windows, before it has absorbed the liquid wax/water mixture on the car (which might streak the glass otherwise); (5) use the Griot's drying towel to get the car really dry and to begin buffing the light coating of wax you have added after the wash; (6) buff the car with a high pile microfiber cloth to bring up the shine.Unlike others, I do wash my towel after each use - I'm just not 100% confident it has not picked up some contaminants along the way, and I also use it to wipe my rims dry (after washing with P21s wheel cleaner or similar). If you wash with one of those mild, "organic" and unscented HE laundry liquids, the towel comes out without residue and if anything it has more loft and drying ability after it comes out of the dryer than it does if just air dried after use on the car. I've owned my for two or three years now and it shows no signs of wear.I've just noticed a very similar looking item offered here on amazon that I'd love to hear from others about, as it looks essentially the same as the Griot's drying towel and costs quite a bit less: the Eurow microfiber drying towel. It has the same dimensions, the sewn in pockets, black edge binding and waffle weave microfiber cloth. If anyone has had a chance to compare the two -- post a review and tell us!

I just purchased my second Griot's Garage 11117 Micro Fiber Drying Towel. This thing is great. I find it is very absorbent, and the pockets sewn into the ends enable you to always have control of the drying towel while keeping your hands off of the car.Pros:- Large and absorbent- The pockets make controlling the towel super easy- Non-scratching micro fiberCons:- One towel isn't quite enough for my mid-sized car- A bit expensive, but quality usually is more expensive.
