Advantages: Cheap

Disadvantages: Poor quality

Generally I am a buyer of the Value products of Tesco, but their most basic toilet paper did not make it in my books.

First of all, the price, they sell it in 6 and 12 and the 12 cost less than 1.50 so they are cheap. I was prepared to have to use a bit more of layers since I did not expect them to be as thick as more commercial brands, but still decided to give it a try.

Incidentally, and I am not afraid to say it here, my boyfriend steals from time to time the toilet at work, so we do not need too much anyway.

The problem with this product is that it is surely not the gentlest on your bum I have ever tried and in the end you wonder if it wort saving 2-3 pennies (since I reckon this is the difference in price for each time we need it in the toilet) and cause pain to your nice bum.

I decided not, so after much debating we decided that the stolen toilet at work still is our preference, otherwise one of the local Turkish shops near home actually sell 6 for 99p and they do the job.

Some time Tesco value offer great value, some other times you need to realize the meaning of "false economy". I think here is the case of false economy, also because unless you have diarrhea or some other condition, you will probably work out that the daily cost of toilet paper is relatively low.

Incidentally, I also found that when you start taking the first sheets, they do not rip off very well.

In conclusion, this is not a product I recommend.
