Seventh Generation Unbleached Paper Towels, 100% Recycled Paper, 6 Count, Pack of 4The Forest Stewardship Council

As far as I'm concerned, these are about the best paper towels you can buy! One reviewer noted that you get a lot of paper towels and they last a long time. In my opinion, that's a huge plus. I think it is very convenient to have them shipped to your home and have them on hand. I NEVER run out of paper towels. As far as their intended purpose, I think they work wonderfully. No, they aren't soft, fuzzy, quilted, bleached, or have colored designs on them; nor do they smell like anything artificial. I don't think consumers realize how many chemicals go into a product like Bounty. If you use them to warm up food in the microwave, I think you are less likely to infuse your food with chemicals as with a mainstream product. With seven rescue dogs in the house, I use them for all sorts of nasty clean-up jobs and find them very adequate. I find they work well for cleaning mirrors and appliances as well. It makes me happy to have an alternative to what the rest of the world is using. I think different is good! If you really want to be environmentally minded, keep a stash of old bath towels, wash rags and hand towels on hand. Use them in place of the paper towels. I save the paper towels for finish work in cleaning and for clean-up jobs that are too nasty to put into my washing machine (yes, they do exist)! If you are chemically sensitive or have allergies, I would highly recommend you try this product!

This towel wasn’t made with chlorine bleach to whiten it like those major store brands. Sustainably made pulp, and this company helps to replace those trees. Very eco free towel from an eco free company.

These are just as great as any other paper towels will be buying again

recycled paper, unbleached, responsible company... all great things that you can feel great about when you buy/use these. but those great things come at a cost. they're expensive, and as far as paper towels go, they don't work so hot. I spend way more time than I should pushing liquid around on surfaces with these, waiting for them to begin absorbing, being mildly frustrated. I feel like I could pluck any glossy junk catalog out of the mailbox and slap that down on a wet spot on the counter, and it would absorb just as much liquid just as quickly as these paper towels do. then again, I also know I should be using something made of cloth that can be washed/reused over and over instead of using disposable, single-use paper towels. so maybe the cost/frustration is my penance for wastefulness, and for not being as evolved as I should be by now. I'm working on it, OK?!

I feel safer using these on children and myself.

I moved from a rural area of Maine to a less rural area a though I looked high and low, especially natural food stores and Whole Foods, I could not find unbleached paper towels. These are very good, thick and absorbent. It’s priced a little high but not much and I wish they offered a two pack instead of only a six pack. But I will buy them again and recommend them to others.

I highly recommend this item to anyone concerned with the environment. I initially ordered them because of the number of paper towels we use in the care and cleaning of the snakes we raise. I love the fact that they are made using 100% recycled paper. The towels are also free of dyes, inks, fragrances and they are unbleached! These qualities are great for our snakes because reptiles are sensitive to bleach and dyes. Thanks to the "green" qualities of this product I feel that my reptiles are healthier as a result of my using them. These same qualities make them safer for use around children as well. I have also found that they are just as strong and hold up as well or better than the paper towels I formerly used in cleaning around the house. I will never go back to the name brand "pretty" paper towels. Function, safety and cost are the main criteria behind my purchases and these meet (and in some cases exceed) those concerns. Just give them a try, you will not regret it.

I was hoping this Paper towel made of recycled paper would work as I expected paper towels should. I tried Bamboo paper towels which were quite costly and worked OK. The recycled were supposed to be the middle ground. Better for the environment, less expensive than bamboo, but more expensive than paper towels I was used to buying.These Seventh Generation paper towels are thin, do not absorb well and tear/rip easily. I cannot believe they are “2ply” towels. They fall apart as soon as they get wet. I have to use so many for one small job of wiping my kitchen counter. My husband tells me to use them for everything, so we can get them used up and get something that works.The idea is great, while the product itself is severely lacking in usefulness. I want to do my part to help the environment, but these will not be my choice going forward. I cannot recommend them.
