New Costco Micro Fiber Towels

So yesterday I was at Costco and saw the 36 pack of Micro Fibers for 16 bucks. But then I noticed something different from the ones that I bought last year. It seems like this year's inventory is made by Eurow. Does anyone know if last year's micro fibers or previous years were made by Eurow? I would assume the quality of these micro fibers should be better.

I cant see how they would be. The package is the same exact size so i would assume they have the same fiber count. They are made of the same material as well. Felt the same to me when i felt the ones in the store compared to the ones i bought 2 years ago. My guess are they are the same exact product.

Can never tell unless you can identify who its manufactured by.
Personally, I think the debate about MF's is a little over exaggerated? They either work or they dont work. You either want one that marrs, or one that doesnt marr. Theres like 800 different colors, sizes, textures, retailers etc......Does it REALLY matter all that much?
I say find one, buy a ton of em, and be done! And if one comes along claiming to be better, so what! What you have works perfectly fine!
Its just like waxes. A new one comes along an "Oh I have to try that"......lol
Spend wisely folks, most differences (if any at all) are not worth it......

I was thinking of the exact same thing. I think that the MFs costco sell now are lower quality because the fibers aren't as plush as the ones they had before. That was just my observation though.

As long as the towels they have this season do not lint, I will be a happy man.
