Cottonelle Really is the Best Toilet Paper

Review of Cottonelle

Venus Rachal

I must say that I LOVE Cottonelle toilet paper. I consider myself to be a conscientious shopper who watches for sales and doesn't mind buying certain generic products. However, there is no toilet paper that compares to this one. Charmin does not get it; Quilted Northern does not do it.


My pet peeve is when my family buys toilet paper from the 99 cents store. I don't mind buying cleaning products, soap, or baby oil from the dollar store, but even when they actually have a toilet paper that won't fall apart when a drop of water hits it, the toilet paper just isn't as good as Cottonelle.


What I love about Cottonelle is that it is sturdy and it is soft. If I run out of boxed tissues when I have a cold, I know that I can use Cottonelle and not have a raw red nose from hard, crusty toilet paper. This is especially true if you buy the Aloe and Vitamin E toilet paper by Cottonelle which is designed to be very gentle on skin.


I'm sure that if you ran out of dinner napkins, you could probably sew a few Cottonelle strips together and you'd be just fine. It would at least be as good as fast food restaurant napkins! Maybe Cottonelle should develop paper towels and napkins as well as toilet paper. I probably would buy them.


You can find Cottonelle in several styles: Ripples which comes in single, double, and triple rolls; Aloe & E which comes in double and triple rolls; and Ultra which comes in double and triple rolls. I tend to like double rolls as they easily fit in the toilet roll dispenser and are not as heavy to carry. They even have Cottonelle Kids which lets young children know how much toilet paper to tear off when they use the bathroom. Each roll is decorated with paw prints and a puppy so that whenever a child sees the puppy, they know to stop pulling on the toilet paper roll.


Cottonelle now makes flushable wipes as well as their standard toilet paper. The wipes are alcohol free and great for traveling. Because the flushable wipes are biodegradable they will work on sewer and septic tanks just like their other products. Just don't use more than one or two wipes on one flush, especially if you have an old plumbing system!


If you have not yet tried Cottonelle toilet paper, go out and get some today! This is stuff is fabulous!

    The "flushable" wipes certainly didn't work with our plumbing; I had to disassemble our sewer pipe to clear the clog, and the wipes causing the problem hadn't broken down AT ALL. Use at your own risk

    1, i have been a Cottonelle user for many years. I am disillusioned as the toilet tissue i just bought is all stuck together. i think it is time to change brands.
    2. Also I tried calling the 800 number on the packaage and after a busy signal for an hour i gave up.

    LAME!

    Yes, I thought the kids feature is really great because then children don't pull too much and stop up the toilet by accident!

    Cool! I hadn't seen the 'Kids' version. What a GREAT idea! (Wish I'd thought of it first...) Thanks for letting me know about this. :)
