Kitchen towels - can’t find one I love

I have had a hate-hate relationship with kitchen towels, sometimes called tea towels, because they all seem to not be very absorbent. Everyone says “the longer you lose them the softer they get“ but I still find them to be basic and sucky towels. What do you use as a kitchen towel that you swear by?

“Tea towels” and Microfiber are NOT absorbent. I like KitchenAid brand for kitchen towels that actually absorb water, not just move it around.

I love my kitchenaid towels. They don’t leave their dust all over everything and they are absorbent.
