Environmentally Friendly TP Review

You’ve probably been inundated with ads for those green toilet paper companies on whatever social media you use, especially since you probably already follow a lot of vegan/earth friendly sites. As someone who could never find a vegan brand of TP I loved I thought I’d try them all and tell you what I thought :)

Depending on the brand you buy most supermarket brands will run between 77c-$1.50/roll.

The environmentally friendly options ranged between 71c-$2.25, so definitely something for everyone's budget.

Who Gives A Crap

So this was my first try at the earth friendly TP services so I went all out; I got 24 rolls of TP, a box of paper towels and a box of tissues. This company uses recycled office paper. They also have a bamboo paper option but it was more expensive and I wanted to try the regular first.  

I wasn’t overly impressed with the toilet paper. The tissue was weak and fell apart very easily, leaving bits everywhere. The paper towels were ok absorbent enough but not overly thick. The tissues were ok too but like all the other products the quality of the paper is a little rough. I don't like that the roll coverings look like donuts either. Unless that's the bathroom look you're going for of course ;)

After my success with Tushy I went back and bought the Who Gives a Crap bamboo offering. Honestly although it was stronger than the recycle paper rolls hubby’s vote went to Tushy. 

Cost for recycled paper: $1 per roll (same price with or without subscription)

Cost for Bamboo: $1.25 per roll

Products: Toilet Paper, Paper Towel

Cloud Paper

As my second try I thought I’d try a bamboo brand. I only chose TP this time to see the difference. I definitely liked it better that the recycled paper TP but still had a rough and not overly absorbent feel to it. 

Cost: $1.25 (subscription only)

Products: Toilet Paper, Paper Towel

Reel Paper

My third attempt was Reel Paper, two things I really liked about Reel was paper felt thick and absorbent the packaging is understated, it's a nice stone grey with the "R" symbol (which coincidentally is a "J" when turned upside down so that works for me LOL). What I didn't like was they don't have many other products (only paper towels) it wasn't the softest paper although thick.

Cost: $1.4 per roll with subscriptions  ($1.7 without)

Products: Toilet Paper, Paper Towel

Tushy TP

Forth purchase was Tushy, so far this was my favorite despite it being more expensive. These rolls were notably thicker and more absorbent than their counter parts, which might be due to the bamboo I'm not sure. I really loved the design as well, very classy!

Cost $1.6 per roll with subscription ($1.9 without)

Products: Bidet, Toilet Paper, Toilet accessories

By far the most expensive options is Better Way Bamboo toilet paper on Amazon

Cost: $2.25/roll

In conclusion, despite not having tried Better Way Bamboo or Noo Trees we decided we liked Tushy the best because of the strength of the tissue so that’s what we’ll be sticking with :)
