    REI Members get back an estimated 10% on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

      Comments about REI MultiTowel Lite Large Towel - 36" x 16.5":

      I had been using a ShamWow towel for pool/gym/camping/backpacking, but the texture is a bit rough. I picked up this large microfiber towel at REI on sale. Overall, it's exactly what I wanted and looks like it'll be a great portable quick-drying towel. However, be aware that the manufacturing process apparently uses a terrible dye. I had to wash the towel using no less than seven buckets of water (including two with detergent) and vigorous hand scrubbing to get the excess green dye out. The water turned dark green in all of the buckets except for the last two. I was not a happy camper after spending a half hour just getting the towel ready for it's first use.

        Took this towel to Costa Rica for the first time. This towel was used dry off 4 people after we jumped in a rainforest waterfall. One person was able to use towel, wring it out, and use it on another person.

        In regards to other reviews, I haven't seen much fading. Would highly recommend!

        Comments about REI MultiTowel Lite Large Towel - 36" x 16.5":

        The purple version of this towel bled purple for the first 10 or so washes. That purple was picked up by other clothes that I was washing. I was doing all my wash by hand and so this was really easy to see. I found the little click close strap really convenient for drying on a clothesline--I didn't need to waste a clothes pin on my towel. It dried super quickly too! Don't know if the blue version bleeds color as well.

          I've used it backpacking, car camping, and at the gym. It does it's job perfectly, dries quickly, and looks nice. The price is great too!

          I wasn't sure what to expect from a camp towel. I had never used one before. I was surprised the towel sticks to you when you're trying to dry off. It's annoying, but again, I didn't know what to expect. It is handy to have while camping because it really does dry out quickly. But [$]? Really?

          I use this at the gym. I don't want to deal with a heavy wet bath towel hanging off my gym bag, so this is a good alternative. It's not the plush comy terry that you can look forward to in your own home, and it's not big enough to wrap around an adult, but it will do the job of getting you dry. Which is all it needs to do.
