Does this towel bleed? Do you have to wash the towel separately in its own load each time you want to wash it?

I think so. First couple times I did it, I made a big mess too. Should be thicker, not runny. I still put a paper towel down.

Hi Sandra! The answer is ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!!! Read my review and you will see in detail what my experience is! I read reviews that said they sloughed off in the washer like 3 times and had a lot of lint in the dryer. All I can tell you is that after the first wash, there was NO string or residue in the washer and the lint filter in the dryer was an even bigger surprise--hardly any at all!!! They came out of the dryer all big and fluffy--gorgeous white towels! The quality is evident in the look of them. I bought two for myself and two to give as gifts (all are being monogrammed now!!) for 2 friends I am meeting in Rome in February 2014. We are going to a huge spa and I thought such beautiful towels would be a nice gift. I think both guys will like them a lot!! I can only tell you my experience with them--I don't know about anyone else. All I can say is they are WORTH the money!!!!!

I would never bleach the towel. I wash it in hot water and sometimes add a little bit of white vinegar to the wash cycle.

I have the orange, the blue, the lime and the other green one, none of them have bleed so maybe it's the way they washed them, I haven't had any trouble at all

I really an't help you. Mine has never gotten wet lucily so I don't know if it bleeds or not. Sorry!

Yes. I wash these towels together in a small load on delicate cycle with regular detergent, no bleach. Then I just hang them in the basement to dry. If you have accidentally dropped one of these on the ground while using them on the car, be sure to remove any tiny bits of gravel, dirt, thorns, etc. by hand before washing, as these particles really cling to the fabric.

My wife washed one of ours with my white shirts, all of my shirts have a green tint to them. Since then we have bought 3 more, I washed all three before we used them. I've never had any after washing bleed into any of my clothes.

Hi Troy, I have gotten it on beach towels numerous times when I was using it and it always came out in the wash. I did not pre-treat it with anything, so I would say that it does not stain. I'm surprised that one answer said that it did stain, I wonder what it stained and if it was on there for a long time. I think I had it on for several days, maybe 2 to 4 days and it still washed right out.

Hon it stains clothes forever I usually use an old tshirt and first wash it will bleed on to the towel I recommend using a dark one .. Be careful of your surfaces ! (Counters and such ) hope it helps ! Very good long lasting color though !

We haven't experienced that at all. In fact my wife uses the towel holder almost everyday and rates it five stars.

It's not bad. My regular size towels I fold in thirds, lengthwise, then roll them. But my bath sheets I have to fold in half, crosswise, then roll them to stick them in. They hang out past the other towels on the sides, but it's an interesting contrast. Looks like a tree, kind of... I strongly suggest making sure you mount it into studs. Snagging a towel out of it when it's just mounted to the sheetrock will probably pull it out of the wall.

I got it all over a couple bath towels and a white wash rag. I washed them normally and it came out no problem. I also got it on a robe. It washed right up.

Towels will still be dry after shower. Very decorative. Tough to wash. The shedding and the lint factor is annoying. I bought maroon, so I have maroon lint all over me after shower. I've had these towels for months and I constantly wash them hoping the lint will wash away. The wash cloths only lasted for a few washings, they shredded, had to throw them away. I use the hand towels for decoration, haven't washed them very much. My advice for wet towels is dry them by spreading them out on the towel rack and leave bathroom door open so towels can air dry.

I wash it on gentle cycle, alone in the washing machine. Then dry on low heat. It comes out looking brand new every time - :)

Well.....pretty much. Sometimes the jumbo rolls are malformed a little bit and drag as you try and pull off the first few sheets. So honestly the jumbo rolls can hang up a little bit initially, but the quality of the towel holder makes it worth the little hassle. The only towels we buy are Costco brand jumbo rolls, and it handles those perfectly, aside from the initial few towels dragging a little bit. Also, make sure the holes at the ends of the tubes are fairly round and don't get crushed when installing the towels. We got the tricks down really quickly and love this towel holder. Hope that helps. Well.....pretty much. Sometimes the jumbo rolls are malformed a little bit and drag as you try and pull off the first few sheets.
