This is my second bathrobe from this company, the other being at least 3 years old. This was a difficult item to put a star rating on because I really like it yet it has some major flaws.

First robe is of a heavier weave, has a longer sash and didn't shrink as much compared to the second robe.

I have used peshtemal towels for years and love them. I like the robe very much too but with some caveats:
- they run small and then they shrink, at least 4 inches in sleeve and body length, after washing. Maybe the same amount in girth? Order a L/XL for an adult but don't expect it to fit on anyone with heft or over average height.
- it was disappointing to find that the material now used is much lighter weight
- the tassels unravel easily and it can be tricky to get them twisted together again properly. I just washed robe 1 and had to retie nearly all the bottom hem's tassels.
- my preference would be to not have a hood. It's a complete waste, never have I pulled it over my head.
- would look better if ironed. the sash is folded and twisted

on the plus side
- peshtemal!
- washes easily and once shrunk seems to stabilize in size
- nice coverage to knees
- lightweight but not see through
- unisex
- comfortable
- spring to fall suitable
