I have used this for years as it is the softest of the recycled toilet paper I have ever found. Some people don't care about that, but lots do, and if you're one of the people who can't figure out why - well use your imagination!
I like the bright white color, also, and the fact that it is whitened without chlorine. It doesn't smell like perfume. Plus it is reasonably priced. However, I do go through a roll pretty fast.
I called the company and asked them why they don't put more paper on per roll. It turns out they do - they have a new double roll which has about twice the amount of paper on it (352 sheets) and it is a thicker, more premim paper. When I asked why do they even make the stuff with just 198 sheets, they said it is a standard economy size that fills a cash flow niche. Huh? Meaning for people who need to go home with toilet paper tonight, but have limited cash flow to buy bigger rolls, even if that is a more efficient way to buy, because they have to go home with milk, bread and eggs tonight, also.
Who knew?

Jenn did read your post, thanks for asking. My point is that by "filling a cash flow niche" - they are still creating more expense and waste. They could do all 352 sheet rolls of both standard and premium paper... more »
