Viva Choose-a-Size Big Roll Paper Towels, 10 count

I don't know what has happened to Viva towels recently, but the quality is a shell of what it once was. Until about a month ago, I would have agreed with many of the glowing reviews, but it seems the product composition has changed. The towels now disintegrate a fray on hands. Particle fragments come off when attempting to dry dishes, and the absorbency is horrible. Too bad - this was our favorite paper towel until the quality tanked. Now we use Bounty.

I was a kid brought up on store brand paper towel, it wasn't until I started couponing that I was introduced to Viva. I will admit I still buy other brands that I have coupons for, but Viva is by far the best. I really love the fact that I can choose a sheet size because not all clean ups require a full sheet. These towels are durable and they make clean up easy.

I am impressed with the cloth-like quality of Viva because they hold together and can be good for tough jobs. However, they are terrible for cleaning glass and mirrors - they leave terrible lint. I'd rather have a less cloth-like towel that I can use for all purposes, rather than this expensive one that I have to delegate to only certain tasks and have something else on hand for glass.

I have used the original Viva for years and thought it couldn't be beat. I was wright however, the Choose-A-Size is fantastic. I no longer have to tear a sheet into for small uses. So this saves me time and money. Choose-A-Size gets SIX stars from me. Thank you Viva!

I use Viva paper towels as napkins, kerchiefs to wipe my nose, for spills, everything. But for the last year they resemble velcro and are hard to pull off the roll or open up after you've folded them. Not as smooth as they used to be. Too bad. I'll have to start testing and using other brands
