I guess it depends on what you use them for. I bought these to replace tissue boxes with a more sustainable solution. It's HUGE which I actually consider a downside if you're blowing your nose as it's difficult to use everything and you end up using the sides. Also, they are very rough. I washed them but they are still too rough and my nose gets very dry. If buying again I would look elsewhere if using these as placemats. Update October 29th: Unknowingly, Forest Saver refunded my purchase based on my 3 star rating. Upgrade to 4 for excellent customer service. They also suggested folding them in half when used as fabrics.
