   Quite decent paper towels — not much to say about it. Their absorbency is a little bit less than nonrecycled ones, but not bad, and no further trees had to be cut down for it.

   What the product description should say but doesn’t: these are 120-sheet rolls. Each sheet is 11×9″.

   Something I didn’t entirely realize before I ordered a box — thirty rolls is a lot of paper towels. Like, oh, twenty pounds of the stuff. So you’re going to have these on hand for a while. You’ll have to bring them along when you move, and they’ll watch the children whose playpens you cleaned up with the first of them leave for college after wiping their car’s dipstick with the last. It’s something of a committment, really.

   Updated July 21, 2010 (thanks to Sam Evans for pointing out the changes in sheets per roll)

   You might be comparing these brown paper towels with the 30 rolls of Seventh Generation, white paper towels also sold on Amazon wondering which is cheaper.
   Note that these brown ones are 120 sheets per roll. The white ones are 70 sheets per roll.

   White paper towels
   $42.01/(30*112) = 1.3 cents per sheet.

   Brown paper towels
   $58.11/(30*120) = 1.6 cents per sheet.

   So the white ones are now cheaper, however some have mentioned that the sheets are smaller in the white roll. I’ll leave it to someone else to do the cost per square foot calculation.

   I tried both the bleached white and the brown natural versions of these towels and I BY FAR prefer the white; not because of the color, but because you get more for your money.
   The white towels are not as soft feeling as your grocery store preferred brands. They actually feel rather rough; but they are quite strong and lint free. Both versions are the same size towel, about 1/3rd smaller than your standard papertowel. The brown version feels much thinner and is not nearly as strong. I can’t even dry my hands with one towel, they rip to pieces. On both, the perforations are not cut very well and it’s nearly impossible to tear off a single sheet, especially the white. I can use the white towel and hang it on my kitchen faucet to dry and use it again; not so with the brown version. The brown towels are in pieces after drying one coffee cup.
   I wish they would tear off the roll easier but I’d buy the white towel again, but I wouldn’t buy the brown natural towel.
