Kleenex Viva Paper Towel — 

What happens when you pour a glass of milk, pick it up and the bottom falls off?  You get a big mess of epic proportions!  Yeah, don't cry over spilled milk, right?  Well, grab a dishtowel or a paper towel and clean it up.  That's when I reach for a Viva papertowel.

These paper towels are so strong.  You can use them, wring them out, literally; and continue wiping up the spill.  I love these paper towels!  If you ever wanted to be pampered by a paper towel then Viva is the brand for you.

My Shaybo introduced me to them a few years ago.  Well, when something is given to you, you use it.  But when it came time to buy some more.  Uh-they were a little on the expensive side but if you want good quality you've got to pay for it.  A single roll usually runs between $1.49-1.79 and a 2-pack is usually about $2.79-3.79.  I usually get mine at Walmart but I have purchased them at Food Lion and Bi-Lo.  I usually buy the value pack that gives you 2 rolls.  I also get the Big Roll so there is more to each roll.  There are 70 one ply sheets per roll and they come in solid white or a variety or prints and during the holidays they do Thanksgiving and Christmas.  I loved finding the blue snowflake design because it complimented my Winter Wonderland theme in my home!

Viva is probably just as strong if not stronger than the leading competitors (Brawny and Bounty).  I have only noticed one drawback but it won't deter me from using them.  If you do use them to clean a mirror they have a tendency to leave little lint-like fuzzies behind.  These paper towels are also biodegradeable.

These paper towels are as durable as a washcloth.  I use them for a multitude of tasks:

  • Covering dishes in the microwave in place of plastic wrap or lids.
  • Dusting furniture and cleaning windows/mirrors.
  • Wiping up after spills or around the sink after doing dishes.

Kleenex had a good concept to branch out into the paper towel industry and I guess if they are that soft you could even blow your nose on them;+}  When I have children over and we have a mealtime I usually give them the paper towels in place of napkins.  They are a larger and will stand up to bigger messes.
