I ordered these Kaufman towels and also another set of two called Striped Velour Beach Towel which looked like a blue version of this. Well the striped tape in this picture is 7 stripes and is light blue and hot pink. The striped binding tape on the towels I received has 5 stripes and it is light blue and navy blue. The stripes themselves on the velour towel are 3/4 stripes, What I received has different colors overall, but is ok, and had it had a true matching picture of greatofferstock.com, I might have bought those towels too. I do not like getting something that I did not order however, It should be my choice and not a slip up. I still love shopping at and am loyal to Great Offer Stock though. These are not huge towels, and the colors are not as bright as the picture, but not drab. A larger bath towel is usually 30" x 54" or 30" by 56". These towels are 32" x 62". Most bath sheets start at 66" long. The size on these was posted and I knew that going in. These will be fine however because they for the pool and the beach, will wash and DRY easier and quicker than my older huge beach towels that I have had for 20 years. It takes a lot of energy and water to wash towels over the summer and it gets expensive cause the utilities are higher. So I like the towels, have seen better, think they may snag a bit, but they did not break the bank cause I had a discount and Club Great Offer Stock rewards, aren't what was pictured, will be easy to launder, and that is about it. Just be prepared that you may not get what you ordered. I did send pictures of all the towels I received to Great Offer Stock today and maybe they will replace some of the pictures with the correct ones for the next person that orders. Other Kaufman towels I bought on the same order are also striped and looked blue in the picture on Great Offer Stock.com. They are called Stripe Velour Beach Towel Set of 2, look blue on Great Offer Stock, but are not, are 1 3/4 inch stripes and other than being striped and having a binding with the 7 stripes (wrong colors again, got hot pink and green, that is ok, but should have been hot pink and blue like in the picture) the colors on velour stripes those are fairly drab. I also bought the the Oversized candy-striped beach towel and that was not what the picture showed, but a still a nice 60" x 70" towel. These stripes are 3/4" or less and vary in width. Sorry have not washed any of these so I can't speak to that.
