Love the extra-large waffle towel in Twilight Blue. I've had mine for a while and it's great quality - super soft, absorbent and light. It's got a tight weave, so that helps catch drips - though can get caught on any jewelry. It's definitely expensive, ~59$ + tax, but you get a fairly decent % off if you sign up for their newsletter or wait for sales. It's worth the money, since they do last for a while and don't "thin" out
I have tried waffle-texture fabrics in the past and nothing compares to Onsen. The towels are bigger than my terry-cloth ones and it never ceases to amaze me how absorbent they are and how quickly they dry. They're grat for the summer months!
Feedback
The price can be a bit high for a towel, but they have sales pretty regularly.
The onset towels are pretty but not entirely absorbent. I have two sets and I find myself rotating in better towels for every day use.
I bought two of the bath sheets. The color is gorgeous and the quality is high. It is important to note, though, that these are not luxurious, thick, soft towels. They are relatively thin, which makes them faster to dry, so best for summer. The sheet size is really large which for a thick towel is probably delicious but for these feels a little like wrapping an actual sheet around you, so I would recommend the normal size towel.

In their own words
Waffle towels and basics for your daily routines. Meet the Internet’s favorite towels. Onsen makes better bathroom essentials that elevate your daily shower routine into a ritual to be savored. Crafted from 100% USA-grown Supima cotton, Onsen towels are softer, more absorbent, and more durable than the average terry cotton towel. They also dry more quickly, so you’ll never reach for a soggy towel again. Inspired by his Japanese heritage and his time spent living and working in Japan, founder Shane Monson wanted to design a towel that embodies product functionality while elevating the basic routine of bathing into a joyful ritual. Onsen joined the Pattern Family of Brands in 2022.
