It's been recently brought to my attention RE: Paper Towels

[OAITW r.2.0]

Recently, I've been buying paper towels with a new technology.

Not only are they perforated into 1/2 segments, but each 1/2 has a perforation that makes (1) 4" x 4" and (1) 4" x 5" segments. The former makes a nice coaster.

Seriously, better utility in matching clean-up to towel size.

I found it inspirational, lol.

2. Great technical writing.

3. I'm just the opposite. I hate the "choose a size" paper towels.

I only buy full-sheet rolls. I'd rather fold them over and reuse them four times than rip off a skinny strip of paper that's good for nothing. Good thing we each get our choice, huh!

5. +1

6. Well, you can still do that with the new tech paper towels.

Totally backward compatible.

12. +2. I hate the little paper towels and I can't buy the good ones here (Eugene, Oregon) any more.

The paper quality sucks, too.

13. I detest those select-a-size paper towels. Too narrow. Might as well use a piece of Kleenex.

The only decent ones are the Kirkland brand at Costco - the 1/2 size is wider than the other brands, and the paper is thicker.

And the newest 1/4 size - ridiculous!

I'm glad to know I am not the only one.

8. I buy those that are perforated for half size

As a single male I have been using them mostly as a napkin

9. If you're talking about Brawny tear-a-square, you need to state this is a Koch product. I

avoid anything owned by them.

11. Just checked...you are correct, it is a Brawny - Koch Brother's company.

Not sure, but they may be being made at a papermill in Maine where I live, though. Could be Georgia or somewhere else, too.


I wonder if this is patentable? If not, I will bet others will soon follow.

10. Good idea. We waste so many.

14. OMG! First world solutions to the eternal problems of existence!
