Kleenex Viva Paper Towel Review Summary

Kleenex Viva Paper Towels are "so absorbent and soft, you could use it as toilet paper!" While most people wouldn't go to that extent, they definitely agree that Vivia is a paper towel with "softness and durability like a washcloth." What separates Kleenex Viva from the rest is that you can wring them out and keep using them, meaning you can clean your whole kitchen with just one paper towel. And of course, they come in different patterns too, meaning you can get a good look that "will go with any kitchen decor." Some people that have gone green in their lives admit that while they shouldn't be using paper towels at all, they can't resist still usually using them occasionally, and others insist on using a recycled product like Seventh Generation. A few very longtime users report that these paper towels don't seem the same quality as they used to, and they want something that is "strong, durable, and soft." Yet, most reviewers still agree Viva Paper Towels are "by far the best paper towel on the market."

As much as my "green" side hates to admit it, paper towels are still part of my life.  I have pretty much given up on them, and now use microfiber cloths, but in some cases a good paper towel is just necessary.  Kleenex Viva Paper Towels Choose a Size Towels are my paper towels of choice.

Kleenex took one of the best products on the market and lowered the quality to just average.  For nearly a decade I have insisted on nothing but Viva paper towels, but now that they have appreciably lowered the quality I buy whatever is on sale.  Why pay a premium price for just average?

They seem...

I have purchased Viva towels for many years.  However, it appears the quality has been lowered.  The current towels come apart easily.  They are soft but not durable.  I want a towel that is strong, durable, and soft.

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. ...

Viva Paper Towels

Ok, I know it is against all green rules to use paper towels in the first place, however, I had to buy paper towels for a recipe I was going to make. I bought Viva because I used them years ago before I stopped using paper towels.

I remembered instantly why I bought them before. They are incredible paper towels. I used an entire paper towel to clean all the counters in my kitchen and the stove too. This is because Viva paper towels are able to be rinsed out and reused several times. I was cooking a turkey and didn't want to get turkey juice on a dish rag so again I used a Viva...

I am here to tell you guys about a new paper towel on the market.  It's called Viva and it's remarkable!  I was never one to use paper towels before because I thought that they were a waste of money.  That is until I tried Viva Paper Towel.  Once I tried them, I was hooked!  I use them for everything in my home.  They're so practical and durable, you can use them for everything!  I clean and cook with them.  My kids love them too!  They love how they can use them to clean up big and small messes and how they can use them over and over again. 

These paper towels are a great buy.

I love, love, love these paper towels so much that if I go to the store and they are out of Viva I will go without paper towels before I bought another brand. I have very few products that I am this loyal to (really just Viva and Charmin) and believe me it is saying alot for me to go with out paper towels. I even clean my toilets with them. I love this product!

I love Viva Paper towel because of it's quality, thickness and durability.  They come great patterns too. When there is a spill to clean up viva paper towel can really stand up to the test and you do not have to use a lot of paper towel unlike many other brands on the market.  With viva you can clean up a lot of little household messes with only 1 or 2 paper towels. Viva have great designs on there paper towel that will go with any kitchen decor.  They always have a design for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  I love the blue snowflake design that they have out this year.  I highly recommend... review »

This is by far the best "paper" towel on the market.  You couldn't pay me to use another paper towel.  It doesn't feel like paper, it is soft yet strong and absorbent, doesn't shred or tear during use.  This paper towel can be rinsed out and used again!  I like using a disposable product that feels as good as cloth.  You may be able to buy a cheaper paper towel, but you will have to use two or three times as much to do what you can with only one sheet of Viva!

Viva paper towel sometimes costs a little more but they actually save you money.  One roll of Viva goes a long way! Any other brand name paper towel gets used up quicky but because Viva is so strong it seems to last forever! I am using one roll a week compared to three of any other brand.  It actually costs less than some of the generic brands that fall apart as soon as you try to take a sheet off the roll.  I find coupons for Viva in my local newspaper on a regular basis and they have a great website that sometimes makes coupons available.  I did see another review where they mentioned the...

I love, love, love Kleenex Viva Paper Towels!  To me, this paper towel feels more like cloth than paper.  It is my household indulgence.  For most household items I find the cheapest alternative.  However, I love these towels so much that I splurge for them.  It sounds funny, but it makes me feel a little elegant and rich when I use them. 

I love to use Viva towels for every day cleaning.  On thing I do is drizzle a little olive oil on my wood furniture and shine it up with the Viva paper towels.  I've tried this with other towels, and it is not the same.  The Viva towels work really good...

Kleenex Viva paper towels are by far the most absorbent and thickest paper towels I have ever used. One paper towel does the trick every time. I can even rinse it off and continue using it for bigger messes! It has a soft texture as well. I highly recommend this product. It's much more effective than going through 3 or 4 paper towels of other brands. The only drawback is it's not good fore the environment. It is a little more expensive than some other brands, but you also have to consider how many sheets of the other brand you will use to do the job of one Viva paper towel. I think it's well worth...

I love Kleenex Viva paper towels. They are the best!! They might cost a little more and I don't use paper towels everyday, but they are good for the money spent. Thick, absorbent and won't fall apart like other paper towels. I use them in the house, in the car, even in bathroom at times to towel dry hands. Better than all the other brands that have thinness and using more. Actually saving trees!! My trust in a paper towel is definitely Viva and one other thing, if you're out of napkins they'll double for that too, especially if you're having hot wings!!

These paper towels are great!  They are super absorbant and so soft!  You could almost use it as toilet paper!  They are a bit expensive if you don't catch them on sale, but still worth it.  By the time you have used 3-4 cheap paper towels to clean up a spill that would only take one Viva, you have spent the money anyway.  One toll lasts a long time because you don't have to use as many.  Try one today!

Kleenex uses ancient virgin forest for it's products, therefore I do not recommend purchasing.  Not only do they use clear-cut pratices in places such as the Boreal Forest of Canada, they claim to be an enviromentally friendly company.  I would purchase any recycled product before considering Kleenex Viva Paper Towels.
