The Recommendation

Two very good deals on two very good towels

Our experts have researched hundreds and tested dozens upon dozens of towels — and none have inspired as much love and devotion as our top pick. Thick and dense, our expert calls it “even better than a hotel towel.” It’s on sale today (and no, not at Amazon). But if a plush towel feels too heavy, a luxurious yet unfussy lattice towel — which is lighter, drapes better, and dries faster than any terry towel we tried — is also on sale. We think either are an extremely easy way to instantly up your bathroom’s spa-like vibes.
