Paper towels have never really been my go-to for tough messes unless it was a mess that would permanently stain a dish towel or ruin the washing machine. I just always thought a paper towel could never do the job like a ‘real’ towel… Until I attended the Viva® Vantage® live event and used these paper towels for myself. I received samples and compensation for my time, but all thoughts and opinions shared on this blog are my own.
Life Changing Paper Towels
I realize ‘life changing’ may seem a bit dramatic when discussing paper towels. However, if you’ve never used Viva® Vantage® paper towels, then I strongly urge you to do the 7-Day Switch Up–more on that below.
These have unmatched stretchy-strength and scrubbing power. It is no wonder they were recently named a 2015 Product of the Year.
My kitchen has a rugged slate tile floor. While beautiful, it can be a pain to clean up a spill off of the rough, uneven surface. Per usual, one of us slopped it up with spaghetti sauce and didn’t notice right away. When I discovered the caked-on mess I grabbed a Viva® brand half sheet, wet it with soapy water and SCRUBBED. I then rinsed the paper towel and used it AGAIN to finish the job! The dish rag deemed for this purpose is threadbare and pathetic and is replaced monthly. I can’t even believe how these paper towels hold up to everyday challenges.
Here are just a few other uses we tried at the party and some I’ve used at home:
- Rinse fruits and veggies in the Viva® towels instead of a colander.
- Keep lettuce fresh longer by wrapping it in a paper towel to soak up excess moisture.
- Hand wash and dry wine glasses and other stemware for real sparkles.
- Ditch the vegetable scrubber and instead scrub your mushrooms, potatoes, apples, etc. with a Viva® Vantage®.
- Chill your wine, beer, or soda in a pinch by wrapping a damp Viva® towel around the bottle and freezing.
- Slip a damp paper towel under your cutting board to prevent it from moving around.
- Scrub any mess, even that grime on your stovetop!
- Keep a half square on hand to clean up cheesy fingers. (I’m a cheese popcorn addict. The orange tinge of my nails forbids denying this.)

LOL! Love all these ladies and had a wonderful time hanging out with them!

Viva® Vantage® Paper Towels sound great, I would love to give them a try. I’d keep them in the kitchen and the bathroom to clean up messes. Thank you for sharing this review.

These are very good paper towels and I have used them. They are not too expensive and I like that they get your glasses sparkling clean!
