Brawny Tear-A-Square Paper Towels, 16 Double Rolls = 32 Regular Rolls, 3 Sheet Size Options, Quarter Size Sheets

At first glance these are a bit pricey and I thought a little gimmicky. I can't honestly remember why I went ahead and bought them. Good marketing I guess, way to go guys. lol I was very pleasantly surprised.The only negative thing I can say is the perforation to tear the half size towels into the two quarters is not centered, so not really quarters or even both squares. I know. I know. I know, that is probably one of the most "Karen" complaints on the planet. I know! It really has nothing to do with the quality or function of the papertowel, and could very well be an error in the batch I happened to purchase. For some reason it does irrationaly drive me nuts.My own insanity aside this really is a great product. We use a lot of papertowels in my house, nearly every room has a roll. My daughter is a painter she likes the "quarter" size to dry her brushes when switching colors. Her and her sister also use them on their makeup brushes. Plus, you know teens are just slobs. My husband keeps them in his man cave and the garage. He's pretty meticulous about keeping his tools and space clean. Doesn't stop him from eating like a cave man in his man cave but he at least uses the paper towels as a napkin and cleans up after himself. Sorry ladies,all the good ones really are taken. lol Naturally, there is also a roll in the kitchen and bathroom. Like I said we use A LOT of paper towels. Everyone likes the size options and the quality of these is great. The are very absorbent and dont easily fall apart.As for the seemingly high cost..... Pay it Normally, I would buy the competitors equivalent every month and possibly still run out before my next delivery. I really wasn't expecting much different from these, surely the "quarter" size option wouldn't really make a differnece. I was very very worng. They were delivered on June 25th, today is Aug 21st and I still have 5 rolls left in the cabinet! It doesnt take much to figure out how much more cost effective these are than the competitors, and pretty comparable to the bargain brands. Its really a no brainer.

I love that these not only have the tear a square on the length but also can literally be be torn into a square. So you can choose 1/4, 1/2 or the full size of a traditional paper towel. I feel like this has help us cut down on waste. They are very absorbent. I wouldn’t call them soft but they’re paper towels, not toilet paper. I wouldn’t use them to blow your nose and especially not your kids nose. I use these for eating, cleaning the kitchen, cleaning in the bathroom, especially for gross jobs that I don’t wanna reuse a cloth for, like the outside of the toilet. My husband doesn’t like when I give us each a quarter size when we eat but it’s plenty. There’s no reason to waste. These rolls last me a good long while and the towels are tough enough to be wrong out and rinsed if you’re doing a bigger job. The only drawback to the size options is if you’re trying to use all 4 squares like a traditional full size paper towel, it will often tear on the perforation. But I rarely need a single towel that big. It’s usually only if I’m trying to cover a large plate for microwaving. I’ll wet the paper towels wring them gently and the cover the food to keep it from drying out during reheating and for a full sized plate, the paper towels come apart. These are great paper towels though. We ran out off schedule and my husband bought a different brand and I hated them. They were significantly thinner which meant they didn’t absorb as much and they tore easier. I also feel like these are much less linty than the other brand I’ve tried. Still wouldn’t clean glass with them, but less paper lint for sure.Please hit the button if this info was helpful.

Let me say out of the gates that our household usually buys environmentally friendly paper products (WhoGivesACxxx - fill in the x's, yes it's their name!). Not just because it's posh, pool or whatever but because trees are finite. I also love my supplier who builds toilets for those in need and has done a lot of charity work. Besides recycled paper/bamboo products we use cloth cleaning towels as much as possible.So why am I reviewing AND purchasing Brawny paper towels? Well, thanks to COVID, a bunch of people bought out the supply from the company I use and that meant we would be stuck without. There are times that we have needed a disposable/compostable item and we like having them for guests who are used to them. These are even better than the full sheets or half sheets. I didn't realize when I made the purchase that these were the "tear-a-square" version but I am glad that they are. When we do use them, most often we tear them into the smaller squares which definitely has saved us from using a bunch at one time. Even as a small square, they are reasonably absorbent for a paper towel. People have to realize that if you want big absorbency, just switch over to a good cotton kitchen or cleaning towel. Paper/cellulose is only going to do so much by volume and for the price the absorbency this provides is much better than a lot of the products on the market. In my home we have separate kitchen towels and cleaning towels (: I never thought I'd say that. I definitely was the kiddo who grew up with paper towels all over and I'm betting I wasted my share. I have used most all brands here in the US also. Having used these for a couple months now, they do get the job done when wiping down a basic smooth surface, picking up sticky messes, detailing the car, removing automotive chemicals from the engine area and doing a few arts and crafts! My only complaints have been that they do tear awkwardly more often than not.Would I buy them again? Maybe! I do prefer products that are more renewable and environmentally friendly. If Brawny incorporated recycled post-consumer paper products when making them I definitely would consider them.
