Has anyone else had the clip on their bamboo towel break? I opened one of my towels last week for the first time to clip a towel on the handle of my display crate for a booth. I had a "father's" section with BBQ tools, etc and the towels and such. I had clipped it on. When I went to do the same thing with the towels at my booth this weekend, I noticed the white plastic fastener had split and obviously wouldn't clip anymore.

Anyone else have a problem? I'm going to get it replaced, but was curious. No one had touched it, just me and I know I was careful.
 
Yep. Came off in the washing machine. I'm due to send back two. . .I already have the replacement. I'm just waiting for another one to break so I can send back two broken towels.
 
Yep, got replacements and both broke. I don't think I'm even going to monkey around with them anymore. I'm sure the replacements would just break.

Great. Well, I won't be pushing the feature of the 'clips on your belt/apron' part. :D
 
Mine's still doing fine.
 
I tried to clip mine onto my apron at a show and it wouldn't stay together. I had just opened it and that was my first experience with it. Then a guest tried to "assist" me in snapping it and she couldn't get it either. How embarrassing! I just talked about how I could send it back to get it replaced.
 
I have three that I use for shows and they are all fine.

In the meantime, I would recommend being extra gentle when using the clip and avoiding any excessive force.
