Review on ๐Ÿงป Scott 01051 Center-Pull Paper Roll Towels: Ultra-Absorbent, Convenient 1Ply, 8x15 - 500 Sheets per Roll (Case of 4 Rolls) by Deejay Devarashetty

Revainrating 3 out of 5

This is not a thumbs up for me, the product really needs a dispenser to function comfortably.

I give this product 3 stars because it works as intended when used in a dispenser. I used to think - to stand on my own. Simply remove the middle cardboard and thread towels through the middle. It is NOT easy to tear off with one hand as the perforations are (I'm guessing now) designed to work with the resistance of the dispenser and not stand up on their own. What makes this uneconomical (compared to standard paper towels on a spindle) is that I have a few more left before I get a good tear. I also found that they are not very absorbent when drying hands, they are thin and have a "rough" texture. And even stranger. The skin on my hands feels drier, like parched skin, than my traditional Brawny paper towel. I thought they were working in our laundry/service porch and garage. but again. The dispenser makes tearing easy and protects the roll from dirt, bugs etc. My husband is happy to have these in the garage/shop for a quick wipe down. Thumbs up for him! Even if they ripped better, I wouldn't be a regular user due to the roughness, lower absorbency and skin feel afterwards. (We have a large box of "storage towels" in the garage that are softer, thicker, and absorb moisture better. I stick with these and my husband sticks with Scotts)

Pros
  • Paper towels
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
