A review of the PackTowl® - a unique towel for travel and home use   

(page 2 of 2)

The directions also said the towel would wring out 90% of the water. I tried wringing it - nothing. Not a drop of water came out. Despite this, the towel was dry in only a couple of hours, whereas normally my cotton towel takes more like 16 hours to dry in the winter.

Using the PackTowl®, second impressions

The next day I forgot to grab a proper cotton towel, so I had to give the PackTowl® a second chance. Based on my experience the previous day, I knew this thing didn't work like a normal towel. So this time rather than vigorously rubbing the towel all over like a cotton towel, I applied a constant slight pressure and slowly pushed the towel around me - pretty much like using a cotton towel in slow motion. That slow-movement was the secret. I still didn't feel as dry as I get with a cotton towel, but I was dry (kinda like magic).

Now that I know how to use the quick-drying PackTowl®, I don't use the old cotton towels anymore. The PackTowl® dries fast enough (assuming you hang it up rather than balling it up), that mine has never smelled musty - even after 2 weeks of use. With the PackTowl®, I can save the environment, save my time, and not smell like a musty rag all day. Plus, my girlfriend and I can take it on vacation and camping, which was its original purpose.

One last bit of advice... If you buy the PackTowl®, don't put it in the dryer. I think the reason mine is so small is because I put it in the dryer after I washed it the first time. This towel dries to fast, there's really no reason to have a dryer speed up the process.
