This is a white tissue of good strength that has never torn while being used and is pleasantly soft and perforated and tears only only perforated lines. There is no fragrance to it which I prefer. It is not quilted.
SUBJECTIVE REVIEW:
Well this tissue did its job really well, and felt good and did not leave my bottom raw. Needed a couple of swipes at the most.
It is not fancy stuff, but it is excellent value for the money in my opinion. And most of all does not clog up the plumbing!

I thought White cloud is extinct?!?!?!?!

Picky wiper (not verified) -- 09.12.2001

I thought it was gone, too. Where can I find it? It is my favorite. I ask clerks in the stores and they just look at me like I am nuts and shrug and say they hadn't noticed.

Walmarter (not verified) -- 01.10.2002

White Cloud is owned by Walmart and only available there. It used to be a national brand, but they bought the brand a few years ago. Good stuff.

hank (not verified) -- 02.22.2002

Went looking for it at WalMart and no sign of it.Three months ago Consumer Reports gave it a Best Buy rating and said it was one of three best for septic system use.

Barb (not verified) -- 04.14.2002

Please bring the old white cloud back. It was the best on the market and I miss it, I even enjoyed the TV commericals!

I would be interested in knowing where to purchase or mail order purchase for a supply of White CLoud Bathroom Tissue.

Can you supply me with this information?

Thank you for your assitance in advance.

Linda (not verified) -- 07.24.2002

more wipe for your money and doesn't make your butt raw!!!

What happened to the White Cloud Bathroom Tissue?

All I see now is Charmin on all the grocery store shelves. Did they buy out White Cloud?

Dunc (not verified) -- 08.11.2002

White Cloud is made by Scott Paper Limited and sold in Wal Mart stores across North America.

I was excited when I found that White Cloud still existed and started to purchase it again. I am disappointed to find that it is not the same. It is no longer the soft tissue that I once knew.

cherangele (not verified) -- 02.02.2003

Yeah White Cloud changed the quality of it's paper right at the beginning of this year. It is also my favorite brand. I went to buy some and noticed through the packaging that it was different and am very disappointed by the quality of it. It now is like loose leaf.

anon (not verified) -- 03.02.2003

I have found White Cloud at Wal-Mart. This is the only place I have seen that has it. I don't care that I have to drive about 15 miles for it- I will stock up on it. White Cloud is so much better than Charmin its worth the trip.

Hope (not verified) -- 03.11.2003

EXTREMELY dissappointed that they changed White Cloud. I have been buying it for a couple of years now, and the other day I went to buy some and they changed it to 2-ply with a pattern. Not as Strong and and durable, almost like buying Angel Soft. They Need to Change it back SOON!!!

Nancy Rogers (not verified) -- 06.06.2003

I don't know how to contact someone - the last 12 pack of White Cloud that I bought had no perferated lines!!!!!!! My husband said it was like using gas station rest room toilet paper - when you tear it, it just rips every which-a-way!!!!! Did I just buy a reject 12 pack????? No perferated lines!!!!!!!!!!

Angela Mintz (not verified) -- 08.02.2003

Why is it that the "only" place I can find this tissue is in Walmart?? I have been in Hickory NC 3 years now and can not find it anywhere but there.

alexander (not verified) -- 08.06.2003

where can i buy white cloud toilet paper

Nancy (not verified) -- 08.28.2003

I am in great distress. I have used ONLY White Cloud for years. Recently I have not been able to find it anywhere. Anything else, other than UNSCENTED--WHITE--

nancy again (not verified) -- 08.28.2003

anything other than UNSCENTED-White-White Cloud causes great irritation and physically is very painful. Please tell us where we can buy it again. We are down to the last rolls :-(

Kate (not verified) -- 09.13.2003

I have used White Cloud for years and refused to buy anything else. Until now that is. I have noticed that White Cloud has changed. It's cheaply made and it's scratchy. I guess I'll have to go back to Charmin.

Karen Elkin (not verified) -- 11.05.2003

I have used White Cloud off and on (when available) since the mid '70's. I dearly love it because it doesn't or should I say didn't "ball up". However NOW I have discovered that there is more cotton lint on your toilet paper than wiping with a cotton ball. I have recommended this product to all my friends, however now if this problem is not corrected I will go back to quilted northern. Charmin is famous for it's "balling" qualities which is why I don't buy it. I have a sample here that I would love to mail to you to show to you how much cotton lint is on a piece of this paper. I would love to hear from you to discuss my complaints AT LENGTH in great detail with you.

White Cloud Lover (not verified) -- 12.04.2003

If you want the old "White Cloud," buy Charmin Ultra. It's the same tissue, they just rebranded it to try and "extend" the Charmin brand. Soft, thick, 2-ply -- it's the one to get. The Wal-Mart brand is not the same at all.

JM (not verified) -- 12.23.2003

Went to Wal Mart a week ago and found NO White Cloud. I didn't notice the changes others complained about with the last purchase about 9 mos. ago. Anyway, I wound up at Sam's Club and purchased Member's Mark. It's not too bad, but quilted. Has an odd number of sheets around 407 (I think).

dd cayce (not verified) -- 01.06.2004

Where can we get White Cloud ..Walmart seems to have replaced it with Angel Soft...we want White Cloud..OK

Chickadee (not verified) -- 01.20.2004

I just found White Cloud at WalMart in Idaho. I was looking for tissue with a SMALL cardboard roll. Angel Soft, on the other hand, has a huge cardboard roll. Enough larger than anything I've seen, to take up a lot of sheets of tissue. I have always used Northern due to the non-balling quality. What I can't figure out is how they get the square footage of the rolls. 4.5" x 4" or 4.4" sheets times 420 sheets sure don't make 600 sq. ft. per roll. There are 420 sheets on a roll of White Cloud, and Northen has only 400 sheets, however, they claim to have 600 sq. ft. How can they find that in any of the rolls? Am I missing something. Thanks.

GRACE VONNOH (not verified) -- 01.28.2004

PLEASE LET ME KNOW - ASAP - HOW I CAN PURCHASE SEVERAL PACKAGES OF WHITE CLOUD TOILET TISSUE. I AM LOCATED ON LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK, AND WOULD BE HAPPY TO BUY IT ON LINE IF NECESSARY. TRIED TO FIND IT AT WAL MART - NO LUCK. PLEASE RESPOND ASAP.

wiper (not verified) -- 03.18.2004

He He He the roll in the middle had been cut in half! Talk about getting ripped off!! Good stuff though, cheap, soft, and plumbing seems to digest it well.

Shirley (not verified) -- 04.23.2004

I have purchased White Cloud for a few years. I used to purchase Charmin, but that has a lot lint. That's why I liked White Cloud so much... because it's soft, and doesn't leave lint. Now they have changed it. And it is NOT a change for the better. Not only is it not as soft, as they have added a texture to it, for some unknown reason...but they have also cut the size of each roll from 420 sheets per roll, to 300 sheets per roll ! They are gyping the customer out of more than 3 rolls... of their "new, 300 sheet roll because we are losing a total of 1080 sheets per 9 roll package ! They must think the average customer is oblivious to this !!! All I can say is that if they don't change it back to the way it was, and FAST....they will be losing ALOT of business! THEY will be "DOWN THE DRAIN" !

Alice (not verified) -- 05.03.2004

I've looked where to contact the manufacturers of "White Cloud" toilet paper. I've been buying this for a few years now and they used to say on the package "Still 450 sheets per roll" NOW it is 420 and they no longer brag about, and they have went from a 9 roll pack to 12 which doesn't fit in my cabinet where it used to. PLUS raised the price!!I have to open the package upon bringing home and this irritates me as well as cheating the consumer. Enough is enough with the changes, aren't there enough changes in our lives? Leave well enough alone you corporate idiots!!! I may switch to another brand it hs made me so upset.

White Cloud (not verified) -- 06.07.2004

White Cloud is sold at Wal*Mart in 4 sizes. 9 roll 300 count Ultra, 9 roll 420 count, 4 roll 400 count and 12 roll 400 count.

The Ultra is a very high quality product and the others are premium products.

Jen (not verified) -- 06.13.2004

I have been a faithful comsumer of White Cloud toilet paper since Consumer Reports declared it as one of the best for septic systems. I don't have a septic system, but other papers that ball up (like Charmin) tend to get clogged in our toilets. Well, now the "new and improved" White Cloud is clogging our toilets (all of them). I'm going to switch to Scott tissue for the time being. Even though Scott tissue is thin, it is one of the best for "not clogging".

The Shit Volcano (3646) -- 02.04.2005

Wal-Barf sucks and so does White Cloud. I hate that shitass toilet paper! It rips. It burns. It certainly doesn't clean. Dingleberry city!

GK (not verified) -- 08.27.2005

I used White Cloud since I was a kid. When they stopped making it, I used Charmin Ultra, which was barely good enough, but better than anything else. Now that there is only "New and Improved" Charmin Ultra, which is horrible and unusable, I don't know what to use. I stocked up on the old Charmin Ultra, enough to last for several years, but I don't know what to use when it runs out. Any suggestions of a decent toilet paper that is still being sold?
BTW, I read that Walmart took the White Cloud name and trademark- it isn't the same White Cloud from years ago.

Life is Good (not verified) -- 09.16.2005

So far, can't find anything better.
Happiness is having White Cloud at home.
It certainly works for all of us!

Drisom (not verified) -- 10.05.2006

White Cloud was recommended to me, by a plumber, as best for my septic tank. So I have been driving 60 miles round trip to purchase this at the nearest Walmart in Roseburg Oregon. Can I have it shipped in quantity to Riddle Oregon from somewhere? Who manufactures this excellent product? Please answer by email if you can. Thank you.

tear it (not verified) -- 10.10.2006

we have been buying white cloud at walmart for a long time. it's the only place you can get it. we usually stock up. but this time when you took a roll out you would have to use half the rool to get it started.
why the change. i guess i'll have to e-mail walmart

Bowl Clogger Blogger (71) -- 10.30.2006

The only paper my ass will recognize is White Cloud. It's the perfect marriage of softness without bulk and price. A close second is the Kirkland paper from Costco, also a very forgiving, medium softness paper on a roll that lasts quite a few wipes. Papers like Charmin have to be changed so often it's ridiculous. I used Scott Tissue for quite a while, and the economy of it was my primary justification; let's face it, one roll would last a couple weeks! But once I could afford something more comfortable, I was pleasantly surprised to find that White Cloud offered the price advantage of Scott with the softness my butt deserves.

So, has anyone gotten an address to contact White Cloud? I've been searching on the internet and cannot find anything. If anyone comes up with an address/email address/phone number, let us know, please! Thank you.

Those of you disappointed in the new version of White Cloud toilet tissue should call their customer service at 1-888-768-1212 to let them know how you feel.

I work in the paper dept at Walmart ..we sell lot of White Cloud facial and bathroom tissue. The best, next to Charmin Ultra.
Soft, strong, and much better priced than Charmin. 1.92 4 large rolls compared to 2.83 for Charmin Ultra

Pay less...get less:
White Cloud Big Roll 4 pack, WITH 352 SHEETS INSTEAD OF THE USUAL 400+ SHEETS! And the package's UPC NUMBER was searched and determined UNKNOWN by the database.
THANKS WALMART.
PEOPLE, OPEN YOUR EYES WHEN BUYING HERE, THERE IS A PRICE TO PAY, for those everyday low prices.

Karen (Panama City, Florida) (not verified) -- 02.05.2007

I have sent Wal-Mart an e-mail letting them know they need to change from this quilted crap version and go back to the closest version to the 70's they can get. I doubt that will make much of a difference. Maybe if we all write them it may help.

Anonymous Coward (not verified) -- 03.10.2007

Last year a white cloud triple ply was on market (for first time I knew) Was a wonderful product, much improved we thought. Can no longer find it at store.

toilet tissue tess (not verified) -- 04.27.2007

I was so disappointed with White Cloud! They must have changed the formula. It sticks places you don't want it to plus you loose half a roll to get it started. I called them and they were extra nice. I am sorry their product isn't.

Ann (not verified) -- 04.30.2007

I love White Cloud, but have noticed that their double rolls are not as big as they were just a few months ago. :(

Naomi (not verified) -- 07.27.2007

I love the White Cloud tissue.. also the White Cloud facial tissue..can't seem to find it in Walmart anymore. Please!!!

Gruntknott (not verified) -- 08.04.2007

Has anybody seriously determined which tissue brands produce the least amount of
annoying dingleberrys? Some sensei of shitology
must have an answer to this key tissue issue.

hulamama (not verified) -- 08.07.2007

White Cloud is the absolute worst toilet tissue I have ever used. The first half of every roll has no perforation lines and the rolls are filled with extra "lint". In one roll, there was enough to form a ball with the diameter of a plum! How disgusting!!!! I will never buy White Cloud again!!!! What ever happened to Tempo toilet tissue? That was great at a great price. It just disappeared. It was at Wal-mart but not anymore.

Whitecloudjunkie (not verified) -- 08.09.2007

White Cloud is the best tissue around. Doesn't produce any lint and it is super soft. My local WalMart just started carrying White Cloud toilet tissue again but I'm desperately looking for the facial tissues. Puffs Ultra are just not the same quality, softness, lint free, etc. Bring back the facial tissue as well, WalMart!

Barb (not verified) -- 08.12.2007

white cloud? bah humbug. It would be great if you didn't have to pull out half the box of tissues to get past the ones glued to the box. Also the toilet tissue...why do you have to pull off half the roll to get the roll started? TOO MUCH GLUE!!!!!

Anonymous Coward (not verified) -- 08.12.2007

I would love to see the Tempo toilet paper back again. It was the best! Where did it go does anybody know?

Loyal White Cloud (not verified) -- 08.13.2007

I actually work for the company that makes White Cloud tissue, Kruger Products. We have a store locator at our new site www.mywhitecloud.com for those of you who can't find it.

You can also contact us at our toll free number for any issues (or compliments!) with the product. 888-768-1212.

Thanks!

The quality of White Cloud is gone. Weaker fibers allow frequent finger poke-throughs. Narrower roll too. Too bad --- White Cloud used to be the best

Leibershitz (not verified) -- 10.14.2007

White Cloud had a wonderful 3-ply product I've sworn by for at least two years now. It appears Wal-Mart has discontinued it. Their 2-ply product isn't nearly as effective or strong. Very disappointing. As far as I know- they were the only one with a 3-ply.

site is too funny (not verified) -- 10.22.2007

White Cloud is the best toilet paper. I can't stand lint and with White Cloud you never...never get lint. It's less expensive but not cheap.

Dale N. (not verified) -- 11.26.2007

All of a sudden White Cloud toilet paper will not fit the TP dispenser in my home (too narrow). When did the dimensions change and are they permanent? Am changing brands unless White Cloud goes back to the former size.

Liz Lewis (not verified) -- 12.01.2007

I do not like the 12-roll pack. The rolls are skimpy. At least you can use a roll from the 9-pack for longer than one day!

Bring back the 9-roll package.

fat guy (not verified) -- 12.08.2007

i get every single brand of toilet paper at wal-mart such as white cloud, angel soft, quilted northern, scott, charmin, cottonelle and etc they are desame but not as good as white cloud because my dad always used to buy it when i was 8 years old but im 24..

ROGER kURTENBACH (not verified) -- 12.21.2007

Could you please re-introduce the WHITE CLOUD three ply facila tissue you used to market. I would like to buy a case or more.

Thanks,

septic seeker (not verified) -- 01.18.2008

Is it true that White Cloud works better in a septic system? Just paid a lot to have the tank pumped out to find it had feet and feet of tp, more than should ever be there, the septic guy said. Septic users--what is best?

daphne (3325) -- 01.18.2008

Single ply works the best, because it disintegrates faster.

Shitty old Scott.

As of 1993, the original White Cloud became Charmin Ultra.

http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9F0CE7DF1F3EF935A35756C0A965958260&sec=&spon=&pagewanted=all

Wal Mart licensed the abandoned White Cloud name from Procter & Gamble Co. in 1999 to take advantage of an already well known NAME. They did not license the original product itself.

The current White Cloud is not manufactured by P&G. Any similarities to the old White Cloud are purely coincidental.

sue (not verified) -- 03.19.2008

Hi, this was the first time i bought this brand. I got it at walmart and i just wanted to try something new. Unfortunately this was the worst brand of toilet tissue i ever bought. White cloud as they call it and can now understand why. When you pull off the toilet tissue white fuzz comes flying off as well. I have a pile of white fuzz and bits of toilet tissue all over my bathroom floor, it even falls on my pants. One roll even had four pieces made out of paper!!! Try wiping yourself with paper!!! It is poorly made and i cant wait till all the rolls are gone. I will never buy this product again, i wish i could get my money back.

Uh, Sue, honey, it IS toilet PAPER...uh...were you expecting saran wrap? However, I do share your view on Walmart's brand of White Cloud, it is one of the worst out there, maybe only Rose's Brand (commercial industrial only, sorry, not sold for households) made by Southwest Paper is worse. That stuff has two by fours in it...and they aren't sanded.

Anonymous coward (not verified) -- 04.03.2008

White cloud was good stuff when the product was mentioned as above (420 sheets and 4.5" x 4.4") but when they decided to screw the consumers by changing to this inferior "crap", I have decided to change brands. The new stuff only has 352 sheets and is 4.2" x 4" and doesn't work as well because it isn't as thick and absorbent as before.

dawn moyer (not verified) -- 04.28.2008

TEMPO IS NOW AT SAVE-A-LOT. Bought a 24 pack and just LOVE IT!! Much like the old White Cloud! Check out SAVE-A-LOT!!

Anonymous check it out (not verified) -- 06.30.2008

Checked out Sav-a-Lot on the Space Coast. Cocoa store has it. I hope they keep stocking it. There is no better toilet tissue on the market.
