Its a great shammy!! My only complaints is the materials and stitching. The edge material that wraps around the shammy and seals the beads in, seems to be some sort of nylon that feels and looks cheap. I suspect this will be the main point of failure as it is coupled with single stitching. I personally would of used the same cloth material and double stitched the entire shammy. This is keeping in mind the cost of this shammy as a simple fiber cloth towel can achieve the same results. If this wasnt an issue I would rate 5 stars all day!
