This is the kind of product that you never know you needed until you tried it!Very sturdy and stiff couche, which I like very much because it keeps its own shape and warmth & very easy to apply flour on.I do my own bread on a weekly basis. I have made several breads, bagels and baguettes already with it.It's very easy to use & it dries pretty fast afterwards. I use my scrapper to remove most of the flour before giving it a good shake to remove the remaider outside.That being said, I've washed the couche only when it received it. I have used only hot water, no soap, at delicate setting in my wasing machine. Stayed in shape, no weird odor, no lint. Very satisfied! 5 stars!

Worked great and no strange smell!! I’m pretty sensitive to odors as I unfortunately have a sensitive olfactory system and before I even took it out of the plastic I sniffed it Yo determine if it would be going back. Happily, no odor on mine.I floured it really well, took it outside and gave it a shake, put the baguettes in for final proof and no sticking!! The couche is stiff enough to keep its shape when you create the folds for the dough but soft enough to easily create the folds. I would give this item as a gift to fellow bakers, but I’d repackage it as the packaging isn’t attractive. I bought this myself and no one is offering anything in return for this positive review.

Trop pratique pour ne pas avoir ses baguettes qui collent sur un torchon même fariné avant d'être enfournées.

Großes Tuch, reines Leinen, aber sehr steif in der Haptik. Hab es einige Male über die Tischkante gezogen, aber ohne nennenswerten Erfolg. Man soll es ja nicht waschen, also hoffe ich, dass es mit längerem Gebrauch auch geschmeidiger wird. Eine gewisse Festigkeit ist ja durchaus gewünscht.

Nice thickness and it is proper flax material. I treated it with flour and put it to use straight away. I have a number of couche cloths so I believe I am in a good position to compare. This one is a good size and I'm very happy with the thickness of it. I see negative comments about it coming from China - well there are indeed many products manufactured in China and many times you will not know the true origin of products you buy. Use the same judgment on choosing a quality product as you would from any other origin. As for not washing - this is general advice for any couche made anywhere of any quality. If you wash a couche it just may end up smaller than before and lose some of the stiffness that you need (yes, I've done it) but the reality is that your couche improves with use and getting fully impregnated with flour. This cloth is a good quality. i recommend it.
