Viva Paper Towels: Strong, Good Quality but a Bit Pricey

Nicole A.
Style: Viva paper towels are plain white and do not come with a lot of bells and whistles. Each roll contains a modest amount of sheets. However, some packages of Viva paper towels tend to have a light odor that appears to be from the cardboard spool that they are wrapped around. I have rarely found Viva paper towels with fun designs on them. While the designed packages are available, they are not easy to locate.

Quality: Viva Paper Towels are twice, if not three times as thick as an average paper towel. They are also very soft to touch and handle. This household product could easily be used for the same tasks that you use Kleenex tissue for, such as wiping a child's nose. I was surprised to notice that Viva paper towels are made under the Kleenex brand. That can explain why these towels are so soft.

Viva paper towels are so durable and absorbent that they can be used repeatedly without unraveling. I used Viva paper towels to dry one whole sink full of dishes and could still reuse this household product to clean the sink afterward. Viva paper towels can be used like a regular utility washcloth. They are also great to use when cooking. These towels make it easy to wash fresh vegetables and fruits. Viva paper towels will not break and cause your food to go down the drain or get ruined like some other brands.

Price: One single roll of Viva paper towels will cost you $2.99. I purchased a pack of Viva paper towels when they were on sale between $7.49 and $7.99 for eight rolls. This household product is pricey, which some women and men will have to carefully consider when purchasing this product. When they are on sale, the discounts are not too significant. You may only save $1 or $2 on a pack of eight Viva paper towels. That is not a good deal compared to other brands that can save you up to $6 for a pack of twelve or even fifteen paper towels.

Verdict: Viva paper towels are costly to the average consumer. The price factor gives other brands and advantage over this household product. Although they may cost a lot of money, Viva paper towels does provide a good deal for your money. You may actually use less of the product when purchasing these towels. They are strong and last much longer than the average paper towel.

    I have been working on a project and I have proven that Brawny is the best paper towel brand. But personally, I like Viva the best. :))
