Reel earns strong reviews as a sustainable, bamboo-based toilet paper that works: it’s consistently described as soft enough, strong, absorbent, and lint-free, with many users switching permanently. Reviews also flag weaknesses—several find it less plush than top national brands, occasionally thin or a bit rough, with smaller rolls—and note some prefer a softer, thicker feel.

  • This toilet paper is a good value and works well! It has a good cushioned texture and the roll lasts. I don’t have to change the roll as often with this brand!!

  • I really loved these toilet paper

  • I always use Bamboo toilet paper for my septic system and the environment. This is the first time I tried Reel and was pleasantly surprised at how soft and thick the sheets are. They are much better than my hard scratchy regular brand. It will be my new go to.

  • I loved the Reel toilet paper! I felt like it was thick enough to protect my hand and also felt soft on my bum! I also enjoyed the packaging. It makes my bathroom look a little classier rather than just having a straight up toilet paper roll sitting beside the toilet.

  • I really like the thickness and pattern of the tissue, and that it's soft and strong. This is now my preferred bathroom tissue. I also appreciate that there's no plastic packaging.

  • I really like the mission of reel. It is a little more expensive but I do find it on a promotion often so I like that. The packaging is amazing and the paper does the job.

  • The paper is thin but good quality with bamboo. It is eco friendly. But it is really expensive

  • Great eco friendly toilet paper. We did confirm that it was safe to use with septic systems prior to using and found that it is better than traditional toilet paper for the system, which is a huge bonus. I was concerned after reading some other reviews if it would harsh or rough but found the softness level perfect. A lot of other toilet papers generate puffy dust when used. The Reel toilet paper did not. Definitely worth a try especially if you want a toilet paper that is gentle on the environment.
