Viva Signature TaskSize Kitchen Towels Reviews Summary

Absorbency and Texture

Pros:

• "A single sheet was enough to give our glass-top electric stove top a good cleaning, and that sheet stood up to several rinses and wringings."
• "I absolutely LOVE these paper towels. They last longer, are very absorbent and they are a great value."
• "Love this brand. They are very absorbent. They are perforated into task size which is about 1/2 a full sheet so you can use them for small spills etc."
• "Great absorbency, like using a cloth and this is the best price I have found."
• "For clothlike absorbency and strength, you won't find it's like among paper towels."
• "It’s durable and absorbent. I can use one sheet of this versus 2 to 3.5 of other brands."
• "These paper towels are beyond absorbent! Compared to other paper towel brands I have tried they absorb so much and are very durable."

Cons:

• "The cheapest store brand is better than these. They do feel very soft and cloth-like, but absorbency is non-existent and they just smear everything around."
• "These paper towels were really good, years ago. Now, they don’t absorb anything."
• "They are not sturdy or strong, which is something I value in a paper towel more than the softness."
• "These are not signature cloth. Something went wrong. The packaging reads signature cloth but the towels are different. They are thin and flimsy."
• "It’s stiff and scratchy, not 2-ply as stated in the description, and are tiny rolls."
• "They work - but they are thinner than the original signature cloth, and have a pulled/stretched feel about them."
• "Very rough on skin. They feel like scotch pads on the face and nose."

Size and Packaging

Pros:

• "Mine came with 4 packages of 6 rolls, giving me the 24 roll total."
• "I love the task size. I cut the rolls in half to make disposable wipes, and keep a short half roll on the counter for times when the task size is even too big."
• "I personally prefer having it in 4 packages instead of one large package because it’s easier for me to store."
• "These are more like towels than a traditional paper towel."
• "With three dogs in our home, messes happen. Viva works like a charm and doesn't need a lot to pick up messes and spills."
• "Great paper towel ever. They are truly reusable. I rinsed the dirty cloth and it became clean and reusable."
• "These are very soft and we're really well to clean up all of the messages in our kitchens and bathrooms these also work great when we are up camping."

Cons:

• "The description states 'Family Rolls' however they are actually the much smaller sized rolls so you only get about half the sheets."
• "I am very upset, since it says that these paper towels were 143 sheets per roll, but they are only 81 sheets per roll, so they are very small."
• "I thought these were supposed to be the big rolls but when I received them they were 6=9 not the 24=36."
• "They say 'mega roll', but they're about half as big as the other brands' mega rolls."
• "What happened to the full-size sheets? The 'choose a sheet' (now deceptively nicknamed 'task size') are slightly larger than half a sheet -- not big enough to wrap a sandwich without having a whopping perforation right down the middle of the wrap."
• "These are supposed to be ‘Super Rolls’ - 24 is equal to 60 regular rolls. A roll that’s .4 the size of these would be incredibly small."
• "Description and Pictures!!! You will not receive 24 Super Rolls = 36 Regular Rolls as stated and pictured."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "This is by far the best deal."
• "They are worth every penny. Buy them!"
• "Great Value. Hands down the best paper towel on the market in my opinion."
• "At the bulk price of about $1.40 per roll (at 81 sheets per roll, that’s 1.7 cents per small sheet), they’re reasonably priced for premium paper towels."
• "Buying them here is a better price per roll than at the supermarkets. Good product/Good value."
• "This is a great value for its price."
• "At the time of writing this review the pack of 24 Super Rolls was $31.34. For as long as these things last, how well they work, and having them delivered right to your door, I think that's a good deal."

Cons:

• "Seems a little pricey as I've purchased for a lot less in stores but the product arrived on time, shipping package was solid and what I expected."
• "The price is also a little high for the amount of paper towels you get."
• "I hate that I have to pay so much for them now."
• "Most useful paper towelso ever. Used them for 35 years. Sadly, the rolls are half the size they once were. Full or half sheet, both have been reduced so that 1 roll now runs $2 - $3. I'm unwilling to pay that and will find another brand & better value."
• "Price was decent, but I won't be buying them again."
• "Advertises Super roles but these are just normal size rolls. Price is very high for normal size rolls."
• "The product is a 5 star but the new price is a disappointment. I used these paper towels for over 15 years and started buying them on Amazon about a year ago. I bought this 24 rolls combo for $31. I see it is now $63. Double the price!"
