Poundland Drying Towel

Price: £1, Dry weight: 100g, Wet weight: 700g

RECOMMENDED
Black cloth from the high street budget chain is by far the cheapest on test, but it’s also the smallest. Don’t let those proportions put you off, though, as it gained seven times its weight in our absorbency test. Even when damp, it’s light, so it’s easy to drag across a bonnet. The size means you’ll be wringing it out often, which is the only thing that let it down.
