Amazon.com Product Description
Seventh Generation Bathroom Tissue is made from 100% recycled paper, with a minimum of 80% post-consumer materials. Whitened with an environmentally safe process--never with chlorine bleach--this tissue is the healthy choice for your family and your environment. Made from 100% Recycled Chlorine-Free Paper
By choosing Seventh Bathroom Tissue, you'll be making an important environmental difference immediately. These paper towels are not whitened with chlorine and are made from 100% recycled paper (80% post-consumer, 20% pre-consumer). Hypo-allergenic, unbleached, fragrance-free, and made without dyes or inks, this tissue paper is safe for septic systems and ideal for low-flow toilets. Post-consumer paper is paper that has been recycled at home or at the office. Buying post-consumer paper helps finish the job you started--of saving the earth's natural resources, including trees, water, and energy. And using products made from post-consumer recycled materials helps reduce the need for virgin wood pulp, which means more trees are left standing. Trees naturally absorb carbon dioxide--a greenhouse gas that's the primary contributor to global warming. In fact, a single tree, over its lifetime, absorbs about one tone of CO2. To put it another way, a ton of recycled paper saves seventeen trees. If every household in the U.S. replaced just one roll of 500 sheet virgin fiber bathroom tissue with 100% recycled ones, we could save 448,000 trees, 1.1 million cubic feet of landfill space (equal to 1,700 full garbage trucks), and 161 million gallons of water, which is a year's supply for 1,270 families of four!

 This company is doing it right... March 24, 2006

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!
Excellent quality product! January 11, 2007

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?
seventh generation is soft enough for me May 26, 2006

I actually find the softness of those big name brands to be annoying. Their lint production alone is enough to turn me away.
I have used many seventh generation products for years and find their toilet paper to be the best of its kind. It is 2-ply which is very nice and it is made with 80% post-consumer materials!
mountains and mountains of paper! September 16, 2007

I was a little apprehensive about buying this in such a large quantity only because I have "tissue issues" when a toilet paper falls apart when you use it. You ladies, know what I mean. There is nothing worse than toilet paper lint. You won't get that with this product! Also, my 7 year old was having urinary tract infection symptoms for months and since we switched to this brand she hasn't complained ONE TIME about itching or burning. I attribute that to the way they whiten their paper and it being hypoallergenic! I also figured out that our family of 5 (2 of us being females) goes through one roll every 2 1/2 days so this case of toilet paper will last us about 4 MONTHS! Can everyone rejoice with me at only having to buy TP 3 times a year? Look, the bottom line *smile* is that it's better for your body AND better for the environment so feel good about buying this product!
Not that soft, but it's fine for me. August 26, 2006

Echoing other reviewer's sentiments...the quilting is not as good as what you might find in something like Quilted Northern or Angel Soft, but I wouldn't say it's as rough as the stuff that comes on those large industrial-size rolls at the airport. There's hardly any lint, and the paper is quite strong. I haven't had any problems whatsoever.
