Pacific Blue Select 2-Ply Perforated Roll Towel (Previously Branded Preference) by GP PRO, White, 27700; 250 Sheets Per Roll, 12 Rolls Per Case

Looks like recycled recycled paper towel. Rough and not absorbent at all. A waste of money. Box came crushed and therefore the rolls were too.

Thin cheap smells when wet, no absorbency

Some picky users have noted these aren't the most absorbant paper towels in the world, lets set the record straight, these guys don't even pretend to be super absorbant, soft or squeesable. When my wife opened them, I asked her to toss me one to see if other reviews about lack of absorbancy were correct. To my surprise it was like being tossed a dura log. Yup, the wood origins of these paper towels are strong. They are not processed into aerated 50% air 50% bleached flour, these are wood. If anyone doubts the wood origin of paper, the proof is in these towels.You may be surprised to see a 5 star review, well, read on. I am the father of several teenagers, who don't think twice about ripping 3 to 5 sheets of paper towel to clean up condensate from the bottom of a cup. Yup, no coasters for my kids, not when 3 to 5 sheets of paper towels can clean up a self evaporating water film. Sometimes the water has evaporated before they return with the towels, which of course are then used and get tossed into the trash.Trying to explain to teenagers that paper towels cost money, that use of a lot of towels for a small, self repairing spill can't be cost effective, is like trying to teach calculus to my dog, no it's worse, the dog will listen and be happy to have the attention my kids get annoyed when dad lectures.Today my 6 foot 14 year old son yanked on the Georgia Pacific Preference 27770 white 2 ply paper towel roll it yanked back (soft of) due to the laws of physics. This is the first roll of paper towels I've witnessed obeying newtons laws, it has inertia, each sheet has limited tensile strength, thus a body at rest will stay at rest until acted on by an external force. My son was able to rip only a single piece, the mass of the roll fought back against his pull. This as the pieces are thin and the Georgia Pacific rolls are massive. He then proceeded to wipe the ice cream from his face. The mass of the roll combined with the weakness of each individual sheet work with the law of inertia to limit the number of towels dispensed to a teenage boy making a mindless tug at the roll to clean up a small spot cost effective! It was enough to make me want to teach physics to my dog, but instead at my wife's urging the energy was diverted to writing this review (the dog was in the shower getting cleaned and dried with a cloth towel that is another tale, as the dog wasn't available, my wife suggested I do something else with my time thus this review).Now we return from the dog shower, to the paper towel saga. YES the Georgia Pacific paper towel was up to the challenge presented by my son, his face was clean, and he hand't used 3, 5 or 7 towels to complete the task. Instead he was able to yank but a single sheet. Yes Bounty, Sparkle or whatever may be squeezably soft, but this log barely disguised as paper towels is tough as wood and it makes me happy. Each roll is so massive that put on a stick they could be easily weaponized. Put in a fire place, I'd bet these Georgia Pacific Preference 27700 paper towels would burn (with some cajoling) and give a dura log an unexpected challenge.So yes, my wife and I still use softer two ply paper towels, hidden in a place where our teenagers will never find (under the sink). We use the softer towels when needed, but for the most part, if you have a small spill, a single sheet of these Georgia Pacific towels will clean it. When the basement floods, we'll chuck a few rolls bounty or a super sized roll of Sparkle down to absorb the flood. For most paper towel uses these Georgia Pacific wood shavings are great.If you need to dry a river, get Bounty or Sparkle, if you need to clean up a small spill, get Georgia Pacific Preference 27700 White 2 ply (not the 1 ply, not 27699, not the non Preference, ohhh no, you need Georgia Pacific Preference 27700 White for certain. Even in naming things Georgia Pacific seems to be a bit like wood, I'm willing to bet 27700 has some meaning, but come on, Bounty, Sparkle, the competition at least pretends to make things seem inviting, maybe advertising it as the weaponizable burning cudgel that also absorbs small spills would appeal to survivalists). How about Georgia Pacific general purpose wood shavings.

The larger rolls mean you don't have to go get another roll, quite so frequently! They work well for prepping dairy cows to be milked.

pretty thick and little on raff side, but absorbing water and do not break fast when wet It is good amount towels for the money u spend, I like these towels better than Scott towels
