Current Best MF Wash Mitts?

Who has the thickest, plushest, softest MF mitts *without an elastic cuff* these days?



The blue ones I got last time are OK, but I can't remember who I ordered them from, at least not for sure :think:
 
I picked up a very nice microfiber mitt from Kragen. Do not have the manuf or model# at this time (update you later), but it was blue and the fiber was packed and 1.5 inches in nap. Very soft and soaks up tons of water. It still has a cuff, but I simply tuck this inverted and sew it shut.
 
i use the one i got from costco 1 chenille micrfiber mitt and 3 plush drying towels for $10. super soft and hold a ton of water. releases easy too in the rinse bucket
 
the Chenille one I got from Walmart is pretty nice, working better than the regular MF one from there I got a while back. They only 5 bucks so I'll just get a new one every 10 or so cars.



Edit: the one I bought was the Armorall ICE one I THINK, it was a name brand, just can't remember the one right now.
 
Accumulator - what are you using them for? Are you straying from the BHB regiment? I'd imagine they're for extreme duty like wheels, arches and engines right?

Setec Do you use these? How good are they ?



No, I don't use them. I was just wandering around that site that Jake linked in the clay thread and saw those mitts and figured I would throw them in over here so Accumulator can shoot them down, too ;)
 
Thanks for all the responses!



Some clarification:



-No cuffs, period. Just edging

-No combo packs with other items

-Good durability is a must

-No "muppet" mitts

-Many of the usual OTC vendors aren't in my area (e.g. Kragen)

-I'd rather steer clear of OTC offerings anyhow as I don't want the user in question tempted to substitute something similar but inferior



Setec Astronomy- Ah, thanks. Wonder what color those are :think: I need something that will look really scary as soon as it's even lightly soiled (e.g., blue instead of gray).



David Fermani- I do use MF mitts *after* the BHB step on some of my vehicles, but this is for a friend of mine. He has mobility/etc. issues and the car is one that's not suited to conventional wash techniques anyhow, so I'm gonna set him up with a ONR-based system. There are a lot of user/situation-specific parameters and I've confident that I've arrived at the right solution.



Heh heh, I don't want him to undo all the work I've put into the car in question, at least not with the first wash ;)
