These towels are great. We work in a cosmetics lab and need paper towels that really work. We have been using Bounty for years and can't imagine changing. And we love Amazon's auto-ship!

Because I am insane, I decided to break down the actual costs of the paper towels that Amazon.com offers. It is hard to tell because of varying roll lengths, sheet sizes, and case quantities. In the end, I found them cheaper elsewhere, but if you are an Amazon loyalist and/or like Subscribe & Save, you may be tempted to order them anyway. [Subscribe & Save discount shown in brackets.] Cheapest per foot (most accurate measure of value): SCOTT LONG ROLLS (case of 16) = $2.54 /100ft [$2.16 /100ft] Cheapest per sheet with "regular" size (10"-11") sheets: SCOTT LONG ROLLS (case of 16) = $2.32 /100 11" sheets [$1.98 /100 11" sheets] Cheapest per sheet (mainly because sheets are smaller/half size): SEVENTH GENERATION (case of 30) = $1.32 /100 5.4"sheets [$1.12 /100 5.4" sheets] All, with analyses, below--- GREEN FOREST (case of 30) = $40.85 [$34.72 with Subscribe & Save] 65 sheets/roll (8.5") x 30 rolls = 1950 sheets = $2.10 /100 sheets [$1.78 /100 sheets] 65 sheets/roll (8.5") x 30 rolls = 1430ft = $2.85 /100ft [$2.43 /100ft] SEVENTH GENERATION (case of 30) = $44.49 [$37.82 with Subscribe & Save] 112 sheets/roll (5.4") x 30 rolls = 3360 sheets = $1.32 /100 sheets [$1.12 /100 sheets] 112 sheets/roll (5.4") x 30 rolls = 1512ft = $2.94 /100ft [$2.50 /100ft] KLEENEX VIVA (case of 32) = $47.31 [Subscribe & Save not available] ? sheets/roll (assuming 10" sheets, there are 52) x 32 rolls = 1664 sheets = $2.48 /100 sheets 519.7"/roll x 30 rolls = 1385.9ft = $3.41 /100ft SCOTT LONG ROLLS (case of 16) = $55.96 [$47.57 with Subscribe & Save] 150 sheets/roll (11") x 16 rolls = 2400 sheets = $2.32 /100 sheets [$1.98 /100 sheets] 150 sheets/roll (11") x 16 rolls = 2200ft = $2.54 /100ft [$2.16 /100ft] SCOTT MEGA CHOOSE-A-SIZE (case of 24) = $48.34 [$41.09 with Subscribe & Save] 102 sheets/roll (7.3") x 24 rolls = 2448 sheets = $1.98 /100 sheets [$1.67 /100 sheets] 102 sheets/roll (7.3") x 24 rolls = 1489.2ft = $3.25 /100ft [$2.76 /100ft] BOUNTY EXTRA SOFT BIG ROLLS (case of 24) = $53.46 [Subscribe & Save not available] 64 sheets/roll (10.4") x 24 rolls = 1536 sheets = $3.48 /100 sheets 64 sheets/roll (10.4") x 24 rolls = 1331.2ft = $4.02 /100ft BOUNTY REGULAR (case of 30) = $43.54 [Subscribe & Save not available] 52 sheets/roll (11") x 30 rolls = 1560 sheets = $2.79 /100 sheets 52 sheets/roll (11") x 30 rolls = 1430ft = $3.05 /100ft

The roll is a little smaller than I expected but for the price it can't be beat. The sheets are fair to good at cleaning up a mess. The only negative is that you have to change the roll more frequently if you buy these versus a larger roll. I would buy again, though, the price is great.

Bounty paper towels are great. I work in the film industry and besides Kim Wipes, this is THE paper towel of choice. It doesn't break down when wet and can be re-used several times while working on a project. I started an Amazon subscription with another paper product- the subscription price plus tax was comparable with what I pay in the supermarket, so I chose to go with it because of the convenience of having it delivered to my door on a regular basis. I live in the city and do own a car, but getting products in bulk can take some searching because they sell out quickly in my immediate neighborhood. But these prices are about $20-25 more expensive over-all than with a purchase from a big box store when accounting for shipping & handling and tax. Amazon does not charge shipping and gives a fifteen-percent discount on their price at the time of shipping, but their price on this item is comparable to their vendors on the site and does not begin to compete with my local supermarket price for 60 count rolls.
