Which weave should I pick: waffle or diamond Tea Towel?Updated 3 days ago
TL;DR: Pick waffle for fast, heavy-duty drying and spill cleanup. Pick diamond for polishing and streak-free finishes on glass and stainless steel. Both Tea Towels are 410 GSM microfibre and 60 by 40 cm.
The two weaves
Waffle weave: best for drying
The waffle weave has a textured surface that traps and holds more moisture, so it soaks up spills quickly. Ideal for everyday drying tasks like dishes, pans, and counters.
Diamond weave: best for polishing
The diamond weave has a tighter, smoother surface that gives a streak-free finish on glass, mirrors, and stainless steel. Perfect for polishing and delicate surfaces.
How to use them together
The one-two method
Waffle first. Use when everything is wet. Soak up the bulk of the moisture from dishes, pans, and counters.
Diamond to finish. Follow up on glassware, chrome, and any surface where you want a spotless, streak-free result.
Care reminder
Both towels are the same material and size (410 GSM, 60 by 40 cm). Avoid fabric softener when washing to keep absorbency high. Machine wash at a maximum of 40 degrees with Sensitive Laundry Liquid or Sensitive Laundry Sheets.
