Product Reviews of Seventh Generation Paper Towels, Natural, 2-Ply Sheets (Pack of 30)Product Review: Would have been 5 star except for the shipping Summary: 3 StarsFirst I want to say that I think that products that are recycled or environmentally safe deserve a five star review no matter what. I do have issue with the way seventh generation sends out its products. I recieved a 30 pack of paper towels that looked as if it had been used as a tackling dummy. Now, having said that, they are just towels and I don't really care no damage done. On reading other reviews I have noticed that others report the same condition for some of thier packaging as well. As I said before, with towels no big deal, liquid soaps and detergents are another matter. If we're trying to globally cut down on waste then either better packaging or a more gental carrier service is needed since if you get a case of six bottles of detergent and two or three are crushed or have a hole in them stuff is obviously wasted and yet another replacement package needs to go out that may suffer the same fate. I realize that to keep costs down this shipping is what it is, but with so many people now seeing the advantages of going "Green" shouldn't consideration now be thrown into safe delivery of our eco friendly products? Maybe I'm just whistling in the wind but at some point there has to be a better way!
Product Review: Great paper towels Summary: 5 StarsThese are great paper towels. They are absorbent and the sheets are a good size. I also appreciate that they are unbleached and safe for composting. After using these I won't buy another brand. These work wonderfully and are better for the environment to boot!
Product Review: Score it in the middle Summary: 3 StarsI really wish Seventh Generation Paper Towels were scored down the middle of the 9" X 11" sheets like the Brawney "Pick-a-Size" towels are. I can see huge benefits to the environment if people could easily pull off just half sheets at a time which is really all we usually need.
Product Review: Good enough Summary: 5 StarsThese paper towels are not quite as soft nor absorbent as Bounty, but they're good enough for every use I've thrown at them. The price through Amazon's Subscribe & Save makes the competitive with the regular brands, with the obvious benefit being that they're made of 100% recycled paper (Bounty, as a comparison, uses 100% virgin fiber).
If your primary concern is the environment, then you will want to consider the effect of shipping 30lbs of paper towels across the country. You're probably best off using reusable rags whenever possible, but when you absolutely need a disposable towel, these work just fine.
Product Review: Not bad and a nice way to reduce your eco footprint a little Summary: 3 StarsWhile the 7th Generation paper towels aren't as absorbent as some of the higher end name brands they are a cut above the store brand and low end paper towels. We use a lot of paper towels at our house with 4 cats and 1 kid. So in an effort to reduce our impact on the planet I decided to try the 7th Generation towels. We may be using more a few more paper towels but at least they are made of recycled paper. I do wish they could get them to be more absorbent and still be eco-friendly. If you can get them on sale and pick free shipping they are worth buying.
