Review on Bamboo Towels: Ultra-Durable, Machine Washable & Reusable Rayon Towels - Revolutionary One Roll Replaces 6 Months of Traditional Towels! 1 Pack by Victoria Robinson

I like this idea. They are as absorbent as paper towels and I would say they are definitely more durable! I hung the bag right above the trash can so I don't forget to throw it out. I only noticed 2 minor issues and 1 major issue. to put them back on the roll (or just fold and fold) Minor problem #2: when I use them with my hydrogen peroxide based cleaner, do they give off a weird smell? I'm not sure what's going on there, but the smell isn't very noticeable and eventually dissipates after they dry. Main issue: It's not listed in the product description (which is a problem in itself), but they are made from bamboo viscose, which isn't the most sustainable fabric (*see below for a more detailed explanation from Patagonia®). Finally I thought about the difference between these rags and normal clothes rags. I'd say they're a lot lighter, don't take up as much space, are cheaper over time, and don't bother me as much as flannels. 🙃(*"There are several ways to make viscose. The most common method - and the one widely used for bamboo - is called the viscose process. This process involves dissolving cellulosic material (like bamboo) in a strong solvent to prepare a thick, viscous solution that is passed through a spinneret into a quench solution where the filaments are solidified into fibers.This is sometimes called hydrolytic alkalinization or solution spinning because the fiber is "spun" in a chemical solution.The solvent process used for this is carbon disulfide, a toxic chemical that poses a risk to the human reproductive system.It can pose a hazard to factory workers and pollute the environment through air emissions and effluents.Recovery of this solvent in most viscose factories is around 50%, which means that the other half maybe for other rayon produc hazardous chemicals are used in the production processes, including sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid.")
