The size and thickness of this dishcloth is exceptional. The best my wife and I have come across (comparing to retailers like Wal Mart, Target, Linens'n Things, Bed Bath and Beyond). The only problem we have found with microfiber is that it develops a rather unpleasant smell fairly quickly. We are very neat and clean, and always careful to completely rinse out the dishcloth. The set comes with 5, so just make sure you rotate them throughout the week.
