Like most things in life, towels don't last forever. Even the most expensive varieties lose their fluffiness over time and require replacing.

On a budget? Thousands of customers are raving about these super soft (and affordable) Egyptian Cotton Towels from John Lewis & Partners - and for good reason.

Starting at just £6 for a guest towel and going right up to a extra large bath sheet for £30, the range is all encompassing and the prices fair.

Plus, there are over 30 colourways to choose from, so you can get matching sets, or different colours for each family member so there is no fighting over who accidentally used someone's towel.

But you’ll have to be quick if you want to get your hands – and face – on them as the long-fibre towels are a regular best-seller on the site and regularly sell out in colours and sizes.

What the reviews say

Customers have commented on the towels' luxurious feel and great value for money. There are over 1,500 five-star ratings singing their praises. Here's just a snippet of what happy shoppers had to say:

  • "Treated us to new bath towels – good colour choice, material stays soft even after being washed good few times now. Will buy more in another colour."

  • "Excellent quality, even after several washes still soft and absorbent, would highly recommend!"

  • "The moment when stepping out of the bath and wrapping yourself in a bath sheet is pure luxury."

  • "I keep coming back to these Egyptian towels. I've tried other luxury brands over the years...but the JL ones tick all the boxes for thickness, colour range, size and durability."

  • "Love these towels. They are really thick. Very absorbent and have a real touch of luxury. Especially for the price."

Shoppers also seem to be very loyal to the household essential, buying multiple colours and styles. We might need to invest in some more bubble bath at this rate.
