OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION:
Package did not open without tearing, making it difficult to store unused rolls. Paper has small dimples and a subtle quilted pattern of flowers and hearts. Tears relatively uniformly at the perforations with some two-ply separation. Has a texture a little like Bounty paper towels.
SUBJECTIVE REVIEW:
This butt wipe has scrub-strength, and yet it is soft enough to use every day. A great compromise between softness and strength. Really cleans well, even under pressure, but not in the first swipe, as if anyone really gets it all in one swipe. Doesn't leave many telltale particles after it's completed it's job.
ANY OTHER INFO:
As good as it is, it seems awfully expensive for something to wipe butts with.

I love Sharmine Ultra, it feels like your putting a hole bottle o lotion on your butt. " Feathery Soft I always say!" P.S. I love the little Bears on the commertial!

I have used Northern Quilted double-roll for years. What happened to the quilting? The
first couple of sheets are quilted then nothing.

As a person who has undergone ileo-anal j-pouch surgery (my colon was removed) I have been on a constant search for the best TP. Since I need to poop about 6-10 times a day, in diarrhea form, TP becomes very important. Quilted Northern Ultra is the best I've used.

Northern is my tp of choice. However, I can only use it occasionally because the regular size is only available when the stars align. The regular size will fit in the tp holder that is grouted into my bathroom wall. Soon they will dispense with the regular size altogether, and we will have to house our tp in a separate room when the Super Jumbo Ultra Mega Colossal roll containing a billion double sheets per role becomes the standard.

The new size is smaller, but the price it not.
I'll be shopping for a new brand.
