Presto! Flex-a-Size Paper Towels are strong and absorbent, ideal for tough messes. Up to 75% more absorbent versus leading 1-ply brand, each huge roll lasts 3X longer than a regular paper towel roll (based on a regular roll with 49 half sheets). Presto! Flex-a-Size Paper Towels are PEFC certified.

Convenient but not really a good value
Delivery was fast; the product was as described; the quality is good. However, for the money I paid (and my situation) this was not a good value. (In the picture, Amazon's product is on the left; on the right is a product from a big-name bulk retailer.) I can buy paper towels similar to Amazon's quality and size at my local supermarket for less money. This product would be good for a busy family on auto-subscribe or someone who can't easily get to a store for whatever reason.

Way too expensive.
These paper towels are a really crummy and are priced ridiculously high. It pains me to have to write a bad review, because I am one of Amazons biggest fans! But, they have really missed the mark on these. I can get the same amount of Bounty rolls for 1/4 of the price also from Amazon, which I recommend that people do instead of getting the Presto brand.

These are superior to overpriced national store brands
We (shamefully) go through a lot of paper towels. The cheap ones aren't worth the money so I always look for coupons for Bounty or Viva, large bulk packs. Presto! popped up on my app and I compared prices at different stores for the name brands. I compared length, package content, etc. As much as I love Amazon, I took a chance. I love these towels. They are strong and absorbent. If someone didn't see the packaging they wouldn't know it was a big overpriced store brand. I highly recommend these towels. I put the toilet paper on subscribe and save as well, I will review on Jan. 4th!

Hey Presto-we shrunk one!
Overall these paper towels are comparable to competing brands. Never left a review before but was compelled to given that this is a quality assurance issue and these towels are by no means that cheap. The 12 rolls are packaged in 6 packs. One of the 6 packs had one roll that was shorter and less bulkier than the rest! I know Amazon can continue to do better.

Disappointing!
While the smaller sheets are meant to save money, the perforations that separate sheets don't work well. As a result, we often get 3 sheets instead of 1. So, we are now spending more money on paper towels instead of less. Disappointing!

The price is a factor...
I do like these paper towels. The reason I did not give them 5 stars is because of price. They are just as good as Bounty and Kirkland paper towels. The price is comparable to Bounty, but, is $5+ more than Kirkland. I did kind of figure that with Amazon being the big company that it is and this is a Prime item, that they would be competitive in price with other membership companies such as Costco (Kirkland brands). Kirkland, Bounty, and Presto are all pretty much the same quality. Now, if only Amazon would get a little better with the price...In my photo, A = Presto/Amazon brand and B = Bounty brand

Sticking to National Brand
I should have stuck with our usual purchase of [...] Select-A-Size. But one never knows--sometimes, generic brands work just as well. Unfortunately for us this was not the case this time. Amazon Brand - Presto! Flex-a-Size Paper Towels are much thinner than [... brand] and also much less absorbent. Amazon's version doesn't hold up well whilst wet (e.g. rinsing dishes), and takes two to three times as many sheets to clean up a spill compared to a single Select-A-Size sheet. Will never purchase again, do not recommend.As of June 29, 2019 I've updated this review by redacting the brand name that makes Select-A-Size paper towels and I wanted to add this last note: Amazon's brand does preform better than Target's generic brand. Amazon's is thicker and more absorbent than Target's attempt at the same product (Target's version is so thin it rips up whilst just trying to tear a sheet off). So if you or your household's go-to paper towel is Target's, Amazon's version is an upgrade. But if your household's go-to is [...'s] Select-A-Size I'd strongly recommend sticking to it, if possible.

Now consistently takes 3 half sheets to dry my hands after washing them whereas with Bounty 2 half sheets were sufficient.
I thought I liked them until I realized that with these paper towels it now consistently takes 3 half sheets to dry my hands after washing them whereas with Bounty 2 half sheets were sufficient. This adds up in cost and has been causing us to empty the waste basket in the bathroom more frequently. Therefore I conclude that they are not as absorbent. Maybe it is not fair to compare an economy paper towel to Bounty, but Bounty is what we have almost always used prior to trying this Amazon Brand.
