Lann's Linens - 1 Dozen 20" Oversized Cloth Dinner Table Napkins - Machine Washable Restaurant/Wedding/Hotel Quality Polyester Fabric - White

I am very pleased with these napkins. Their size, quality and color are all more than suitable to my needs. We use cloth napkins every day and I was looking for some that would wash well and feel soft. I washed these initially and would recommend doing so to get any excess dye out. It turned an old dish towel pink, but that was not really a problem since I washed them with dark cloths and that one old towel. Just a headd up. I plan to order another set in a different color.What would I have liked that could have made it better? Two colors, six of each, making the dozen, instead of a dozen of one color would have been delightful.They are very nice for their price.

I bought 2 doz. napkins for a large dinner party. They were perfect ...bright white with bright colored napkin rings. Many compliments on the beautiful table setting. They came out of washing machine with no stains. I did not put them in dryer, I folded them damp and they are all set to use again.

I ordered these for a party and they were great! Very good quality. I was impressed with how clean they came out in the wash even with lipstick and red wine on them. I washed in warm water with bleach and they came out looking bright white. These are a great value and I’m very happy with the purchase.

I bought these for use during communion at our church. We use whole loves of bread and break them in half for worshipers to tear off a piece and dip in the cup, so we need napkins for the servers to hold the bread. The color white is perfect. The size is perfect and they launder very well coming out of the dryer with no wrinkles. The only con I see is that the fabric is tightly woven polyester and it's hard to keep them folded in order to stack them. They do not crease. I wanted polyester fabric because the cotton napkins have to all be ironed to get the wrinkles out and I do not iron. I don't need the napkins to crease for my purpose but if used as dinner napkins, fancy folding might be a problem. But still, for the price, they are great napkins and I would recommend them to friends.

The material in these napkins is a medium heavy, fairly tight weave, definitely white polyester. They wash up nicely and retain few wrinkles if pulled out of the dryer immediately upon drying on a permanent press cycle for just a few minutes. I have yet to use them and will probably press them flat (fully open) at least the first time or two of use just to set the wrinkle free state more firmly and to press the hems a bit more. My use will be exclusively for dinner guests; otherwise I would leave them just as they came out of the packaging if using for everyday use because they have relatively few wrinkles. If you planned on doing any folding into decorative designs I seriously doubt that these napkins will work due to the polyester material which is going to resist any deep creasing with an iron - a requirement for folded designs. Plus I'm guessing that the creases you do iron into them will not be fully removed with subsequent washings and ironings. I plan on using napkin rings without any folding of the napkins. Unlike many napkins, these are a true square. I do not know how well they will/will not absorb spills. Once again, judging from the feel of the material, I'm guessing that liquids will pool more than they will absorb. Everyone's preference is different. For my purposes, I'm very happy with my purchase.

They were wrinkle free and very good quality

These are good napkins for that special get together around the table.

I bought these in an attempt to reduce waste from using paper towels or paper napkins at every meal. The product description does say 100% polyester but I was surprised at how stiff and plastic-y they felt when they arrived--think about the last banquet you went to and the cheap-ish fabric tablecloths that they had on the tables. That's what these napkins feel like. They don't really soften up in the wash at all, even after over a year of use. On the plus side, polyester means they're reasonably stain resistant and 95% of stains tend to come out in the laundry. I could probably take care of that remaining 5% if I used a pre-treater or did a bleach soak, but I'm so indifferent about them that I don't really feel like putting in the effort.They're definitely functional as a reusable napkin option, but I'd love to replace them with nicer ones at some point.

wrinkly, polyester, does not hold shape.
