Great for packing Light
This towel packs down super small and is great for overnight trips. The descrption is right when it says "micro-fine" as it was a bit thinner than I had expected and not quite as absorbent, but worked well for drying hands.

Great - but small!
This towel is a bit smaller than I expected it to be (especially when its packed up in its pouch!) but does at good job at drying me off post shower.

Great for Limited Space
I originally bought this for backpacking, but take it on all my camping trips. I use it in place of a wash cloth. The pouch easily fits in my palm (I'm a 6' female), and it is an extremely lightweight material; it might feel a bit odd & can take some getting used to the texture-similar to a thin crepe back satin. Doesn't seem to have super water-wicking properties, so I don't use it for a body towel. Make sure to wash it a few times before using it, it did have an odd, almost chemical odor, when I got it (did not use fabric softner to allow it to wick better). It dries fast & has a loop for hanging with a snap so you can hang it on almost anything.
