Breaking Viva’s six-year winning streak, Aussies have rated Tuffy as the top pick in Canstar Blue’s latest paper towel ratings, with five-star reviews for quality, absorbency, effectiveness and overall satisfaction.
Our review compares paper towel brands on customer satisfaction, so you can find out what other Aussies think about the compared brands before you go ahead with a purchase. Think of it as like asking hundreds of your closest mates which paper towel brand they think is best!
Canstar Blue surveyed 2,418 Australians for their feedback on the paper towel brand(s) they have purchased and used in the last six months.
The winning brand is the one that receives the highest overall satisfaction rating once all the scores from the overall satisfaction criteria are combined and averaged.
Brands must have received at least 30 responses to be included, so not all brands available in the market have been compared in this survey. The brands rated in this survey are listed below in order of best overall satisfaction.
