But these are nice and tough I keep using 2 towels to dry my hands but that's just cuz I'm use to using 2 honestly I think one would do the job. The texture feels like cottonells wrinkles but rough. I can't express how happy I am with these, used these to replace buying bounty paper towels"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "To those saying these are cheap, flimsy, or poor quality, I absolutely disagree. I have purchased these 2x since the beginning of the pandemic and will continue to do so. The very first alternative to regular paper towels that I tried during the pandemic was the Scott recycled commercial paper towels (brown, unbleached). And let me just say that these Kleenex paper towels feel like a Rolls Royce compared to those! We literally had to use 3 of the Scott paper towels to dry our hands. You only need ONE of the Kleenex paper towels to completely dry your hands. They're super absorbent and nice and thick, as far as commercial paper towels go. I can actually dry a dish or wipe down my counter with these (unthinkable with the Scott paper towels). Now, comparing these Kleenex commercial paper towels to traditional, kitchen paper towels on a roll is different. There is a period of adjustment that comes with using commercial paper towels that you'd find in a restroom. They're smaller, and you won't be able to do everything you're accustomed to doing with a single paper towel that comes on a roll. But these are trying times and we're all making adjustments. You'll get the hang of it! I've been using this type of paper towel for about three months straight now, and I can tell you that I actually don't miss regular paper towels. I've learned to love these and now that the price and availability are better, I honestly don't know if I'll go back to rolls when they become more easily obtainable."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2014', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Well, I've run through what's availabile locally/Amazon and here's my review of the different brand multifold towels. My review is based on using a SINGLE towel to dry freshly washed (and gently shaked) hands. Requirement was to have sufficiently dry hands (absorbancy) without easily tearing (durability). Ratings are 1-5 stars. I did not factor in price (they are all within ~$10 of each other) or box quantity.\n\nSCOTT Multifold Paper Towels (Amazon)\nAbsorbency: ** (2 stars)\nDurability: ***** (5 stars)\nOverall: ** (2 stars)\nThese ranked lowest on absorbency (only wax paper is less absorbent), but high on durability. Two towels required to sufficiently dry hands, but little/no tearing.\n\nMarathon Multifold Paper Towels (Costco)\nAbsorbency: *** (3 stars)\nDurability: ** (2 stars)\nOverall: *** (3 stars)\nYour average towel. Med absorbency, med durability. You effectively needed two towels to dry OR carefully dry with one towel. Rips easily when wet.\n\nGeorgia-Pacific Signature White 2-Ply Premium Multifold Paper Towel (Amazon)\nAbsorbency: *** (3 stars)\nDurability: *** (3 stars)\nOverall: *** (3 stars)\nVery similar to the Marathon in overall performance, slightly more absorbent.\n\nKimberly-Clark Professional KLEENEX Multifold Paper Towels (Amazon)\nAbsorbency: ***** (5 stars)\nDurability: ***** (5 stars)\nOverall: ***** (5 stars)\nTop of the line. Excellent absorbency and durability, easily drys hands with one towel without ripping/tearing. Good comfortable texture and composition, almost approaches fabric in appearance and feel. As far as I'm concerned, these are the towels by which all others are measured."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'The most important review for me was by Bret with a thorough comparison with other products. It was posted on January 15, 2014. I get annoyed when people have dirty hands and hold the roll to tear off the paper towels. Not to mention the ones that don\'t touch the roll but just jerk it and waste so many paper towels. This product solves the problem. Now I will talk about the "Kleenex Multifold Paper Towels (01890)" that I purchased. I read a lot of the reviews and here is my opinion.\n*First, I didn\'t buy these to wipe a baby\'s face (although they would be great when wet). I have been making my own baby wipes out of regular bounty and aldi paper towels for a long time when I found out about formaldehyde being in the big name brands.\n*Second, I was skeptical when I read some of the negative reviews, but I gave it a shot based on Bert\'s review. I knew we would used them somehow even if they weren\'t the quality I hoped for. Don\'t believe the naysayers. I am highly critical of cleaning products (being a germie-phobe).\nConclusion: These paper towels are awesome! Imagine a medium starched cotton broadcloth with bumps. (I am posting pics of the paper towel dry and wet.) When they are damp or wet they become very smooth and soft. They are VERY strong and absorbent. My kitchen and bathroom are SO clean now (as if they weren\'t already) but it is so easy to grab one, pump a dab of cleaning liquid on it and wipe away. I love looking at the dirt and grime it picked up when I thought it was already totally OR sanitized. (How is that even possible?) They don\'t tear or shred or bunch up when wiping surfaces like a regular bountie (intentional sp*). One towel is plenty to dry hands. I\'m happy with not wasting so much paper and the price is great too. I plan to sign up on a delivery subscription with my next order.\nAlso my indecision on the right dispenser...I chose this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0040ZOE7Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1\nIt is not exactly as shown on the page, but had "Scott" logo on the front. I plan to put a cute sticker over it for decoration. The towels fit perfectly and dispense great also. (Will be posting a review on it also.) It is heavy duty plastic and easy to load.\nSo from me to you: HAPPY WIPING!!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2015', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I no longer have a hand towel in the bathroom.

I want value, strength, and absorbency—these fit the bill. We had been going through at least a roll a day using select-a-size rolls–bite me, we have dogs and with the pandemic, we have been washing our hands and wiping down things a lot more. These are so much better than the rolls.\n\nOne 'carton' is about 150 sheets, so even though I am using more (paper), I am using less sheets ... if that makes sense.\n\nAt any rate, I will be ordering these again.\n\nThrow them in a dispenser for your kitchen or bath, OR just place them on the countertop—you won't be disappointed."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "So I was on the fence about getting these paper towels due to the reviews saying they were small and not soft. I honestly don't care if a paper towel is soft, as long as it does its job. These are not rough, cheap paper towels. They are thin, but sturdy and absorb well. I usually bought the pick a size paper towel rolls, because i like not using a full sized towel. These are slightly smaller than a full sized paper towel, and I think they really are a perfect size for basic kitchen clean up and need. I would recommend these to anyone that wanted to buy bulk paper towels."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-2 review-rating', 'review_body': "I made the mistake of taking the other reviews and running with it. I was using the Kleenex hand towels that come already preboxed and I figured I would give these a shot because of all the good reviews. Boy was I disappointing the minute I opened the box. These are completely opposite of what I thought they would be. I wasn't expecting the super soft cloth like material that the boxed type are but I also wasn't expecting public restroom paper towel quality either. CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP and so dang rough. I was too embarrassed to us them in the guest restroom so I opened am using all my previously owned paper towels in the guest bathroom and the rest of my bathrooms get these ugly things. I am so beyond dissapointed and can't wait to run out so I can buy other ones. Don't be fooled with all the good reviews, this only 1 notch above the brown recycled public restroom paper towels. The only reason they get 2 stars is because they are white and they do dry your hands."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-4 review-rating', 'review_body': "These paper towels are working well for us. Got that old wooden look pop up paper towel dispenser, which I like a lot.\n\nTowels a a bit rough, not real rough, but not soft like tissue. Absorbancy be is ok, but sometimes use two.\n\nHuge PRO is less laundry! Not having to wash hand towels all the time. I'm happy."}]
