 This company is doing it right... Mar 24, 2006
By L. Smith
Okay, so let's be upfront... This toilet paper could be softer--don't expect Charmin softness. But it's really not bad. I rated this product a 5 despite the softness factor because this company is doing it right. You can feel good about this paper being made from 100% recycled materials (80% post-consumer!). In addition, this paper is not whitened using any chlorination process, which is better for all of us. I think that as more people show they are willing to buy products made from recycled content, companies can put more money into making them more luxurious. Go Seventh Generation!

 Seventh Generation also offers a softer alternative Nov 10, 2007
By pdX
Seventh Generation offers two types of bath tissue: 500 sheet and 400 sheet. The one listed above, at 500 sheets, is the thinner, tougher, more abrasive type. The one to get instead is the following, also available on Amazon (sometimes):
Seventh Generation Bathroom Tissue, 2-ply White Unscented, Case Pack (48-400 Sheet Rolls)
The 400 sheet variety is not only great for the environment (80% post consumer recycled/ whitened without chlorine bleach) but also soft and comfortable. Amazon currently lists it as 'unavailable'. To encourage Amazon to carry the more comfortable one, add that one to your wish list. Or once it is available, purchase the 400 sheet one instead.
The 500 sheet variety will remind you of being in a gas station restroom. If you end up buying this in bulk, you'll find yourself secretly buying traditional toilet paper to pull out of the cabinet when you have guests...

The great TP Review aka: News for the Demanding Defecator Dec 06, 2008
By N. A. Walther
"as Einstein stated: Those who never made a mistake have never tried anything new."
Demanding Defecators look no further...your seal of approval will sit mightily upon this heap.
Seventh Generation toilet tissue provides one with just the right amount of wiping power for those solid soiled messes that toilet paper was designed to wipe. *dare u to discsuss this subject in an inoffensive to the amazon.com gods sensabilities*
It has just the right amount of scratchiness to discourage handfuls of pleasure by toddlers as well as teenage girls needing a little makeup removal. *tp consumption in the household has reduced dramatically since it is no longer used for makeup removal, extra padding, kleenex, and whatever else it is that toddlers seem to find to do with a roll in 5 minutes*
It is one ply and will save the "head plunger of the home" from having to plunge after every flush with the only use a gallon or less of water toilets.
*that is me and I am enjoying the break, but it still handles those...particularly odiforous pungent deposits without leaving any tell tale reminders in ones garments*
It has just the right amount of absorbancy for the more frontal wiping needs. *blinks*
A case of TP lasts about 2 months in a household with 4 bathrooms and twice as many people.
I would recommend the purchase, you are saving the environment, you are reducing fossil fuels by having it delivered, the wrapping paper that 7th generation comes in composts quickly in the heap; the cardboard box is just the right size for raised bed veggie gardening and by end of season will be sufficently deteriorated to be turned over and tossed in a new box for the following season.
Ok that is about as much as I can say without using the word....or... or...or...or....
So for the Deamanding Defecator I say look no further for your defecation wiping needs 7th gen will make u squat with pride!
Amazon.com sent me an email requesting a review of this product...after staring like a deer in the headlights for a few I thought what the heck I am great when it comes to shoveling the......

Excellent quality product! Jan 11, 2007
By Snowbrocade
Seventh Generation is a company that specializes in eco-friendly products. The name for the company comes is taken from a quote of the Great Law of the Iroquois confederacy: "In our every deliberation we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations." A philosophy that can easily be extended to decisions both large and small.
In this case, the bathroom tissue is made with 100% recycled materials and is whitened without using bleach. Using recycled products not only saves trees but reduces land fill.
As for the comfort and utility of this product it is a quality toilet tissue that is reasonably soft and absorbent. So if we can be comfortable, hygenic and eco-friendly, why not?

 good--as far as it goes, that is Aug 31, 2007
By Matthew G. Sherwin
Seventh Generation makes a fine brand of bath tissue--even if it's not exactly Charmin soft. I prefer the texture of Scott bath tissue so for me this product was not a huge difference. I enjoyed knowing that I was helping to keep our planet "green" when choosing this bath tissue.
This bath tissue is made of completely recycled paper--80% of which is post consumer material! Great! All this DOES reduce pollution, just as they advertise on the wrapping of the roll of toilet paper. The wrapping is great and the bath tissue is whitened without using bleach. I am very impressed. Predictably, this bath tissue is not just kinder to Mother Nature; it's easier on those of us who are sensitive to scents. It is hypoallergenic; and it is perfectly safe for toilet and septic systems just as Amazon notes above. Of course, there's always a limit to how much paper will go in one single flush down the toilet; but most people have an intuitive sense about this so it shouldn't be a problem.
Of course, bath tissue never "goes stale," so if you catch a sale on this product stock up on it! The rolls can be stored in the package they come in; or you can store the rolls individually in various places throughout your home where they will be needed.
Unfortunately, there are three concerns. First, Seventh Generation bath tissue is comparatively expensive to most other brands of bath tissue. People on a budget may simply not be able to afford this product. Second, some people will protest the feel of this paper since, as I wrote above, it's not exactly Charmin soft. Third, this paper is also too thin for some people's tastes; one ply toilet tissue can mean that you wind up using more to do the same job. I'll take off two stars for these issues even though I personally like this product. I know that in time Seventh Generation will figure out a way to make this bath tissue stronger, softer--and cheaper.
