SO DISAPPOINTING! Not safe toilet paper to use anymore when loads of it is left on your person to be sprinkled all over the place at your next visit… so thin & crumbly. Will NEVER BUY THIS PRODUCT AGAIN… buyer beware - this stuff will make you sick. Fatter but smaller rolls now loosely wrapped and paper thin. TOTAL RUBBISH when half of it is left… Read more
on you and front & rear are left with a burning sensation. This can’t be healthy! Quilton you should be ASHAMED OF YOURSELF! A loyal customer for many years but I no longer trust this brand - DO NOT BUY!!! Can’t even give it one ⭐️ but unfortunately had no ZERO STAR option.
THE HUSBAND WAS RIGHT! I’ve hunted high and low for toilet paper that doesn’t break apart or leave those dreaded little cling-ons behind. My husband tried Quilton 4-Ply GOLD SHEA BUTTER and kept telling me to try it. Naturally, I thought I knew better and ignored him. Eventually I gave in. Damn it. He was right. Soft, strong and NO CLING-ONS!… Read more
Quilton, you’ve achieved the impossible: fantastic toilet paper AND making me publicly admit my husband was right.
If I could give a zero score I would. I've been buying Quilton since they started. When the roll on the inside use to state "quilton loves your bum",… Read more
but....the last few packs of 24 have changed. It's super thin, no longer soft and smells like glue. Very disappointed. After this 24 pack I won't be purchasing anymore of Quilton toilet rolls.
Follow-up · Ive stopped buying Quilton as I said in my original post....it's not like it used to be. Your fingers go through it, it smells like glue. A pity I had to change after being a Quilton lover for many many years
Follow-up · I'm not longer using Quilton. Went to another brand after many loyal years to your product. It's nowhere near the quality that it use to be.

Was once a good product but now a rip off. Missing paper, not 3 ply as I paid for and not soft anymore. Obvious manufacturing errors, but they sell it anyway... Show details
Quilton loves your (child’s) bum. Yet more ways to give the consumer less value. Show details
I have purchased Quilton Double length 3 ply by 8 rolls for a very long time, at woolworths, but I’ve notice that it is now only lasting one week instead of two and my husband and I both agree we are using twice as much. I pulled their 3 ply apart and each ply is now so thin you could not possible call it 1 ply of paper. It still is costing the… Read more
poor consumer the same amount of money for a lesser product. I’m sick and tired of being ripped off by Woolworths and manufactures. If I could give it 0 stars I would. Very very disappointed in our Australian company.
Not just me unhappy with the quality, then. I went to our local discount shop last week, (in this case aptly named “The Reject Shop”) to find it literally half filled with Quilton toilet rolls, mostly 12 packs. So I bought one. I don’t consider it was THAT cheap at 8 bucks, but it was there and so was I. I then went to my mothers house to help… Read more
out, and while cleaning out her hallway cupboard, I found another Quilton 12 pack down low pushed to the back. Mum can’t get down there any more, so she would’ve missed it, probably for 4 years or more. Anyway, she was well stocked already, so she said take it. The packaging is almost identical, but the quality, it’s like chalk and cheese. The old pack - so soft, no need to triple it up to stop brown finger, it doesn’t feel like you’re wiping with newspaper. Now, I grew up in a household that used single thickness Delsey 1000 paper, so maybe I’d been short changed in the softness department for a long time, but the “new” Quilton rolls are just terrible. They’re nowhere near as soft, and you lose 6 layers because of the glue when starting a roll. AND it’s always a worry when there’s a large amount of them at a discount store - it usually means the supplier is either discontinuing an item, OR shedding excess or dodgy stock. We’ll go with dodgy….. *Update* (or very close to…) 2026 still no better, could Quilton PLEASE promote the person in charge of glueing the rolls to upper management, where they can do less harm to the company’s already poor reputation?

Issue with Australian packaging 24 rolls toilet paper, left with itch. Then noticed purple color on the roll, tinny piece of the prints/plastic that's from the inside of the bag, going straight on the toilet paper, then straight onto our genitals. See pic. Quilton needs to fix this urgently, health issue Show details

Quilton 540 rolls give less waste – Quilton 540 rolls saves waste..So, toilet rolls used to be 500 sheets, so now "triple" size is 40 sheets more. I can't understand the roll downsizing. We don't use them 1/3 less. Surely the smaller rolls are not environmentally friendly as you need… Read more
3 times the cores to make the same as one of these rolls. Why pay for 36 cores when you can use 6 for as many sheets??. Now, from quality, initially I thought not as good, but the second lot opened are just as good. My tick is for less waste and space to store them.
Follow-up · Explain roll downsizing further? Gone from 500 sheets to 180 as a standard What other benefits noticed? Less waste, easier to store packs than the 36 roll packs with same sheets How did quality improve? First pack appeard damaged, subsequent are fine. I can only find in woolies now. Hope they keep selling them.
I have always purchased Quilton toilet paper and never had issues until recently. The last batch I bought is completely faulty — the paper shreds into tiny pieces during normal use, making a mess and rendering it unusable. I contacted the company… Read more
to report the issue and seek assistance, however they were unwilling to do anything about it, which is extremely disappointing given how long I’ve been a loyal customer.
For a brand that markets itself as high quality, this experience has been frustrating and unacceptable. I will be reconsidering my choice of brand going forward unless this issue is addressed properly.
Follow-up · Contacted company and never heard back
Quilton paper has gone thinner, it's fragile as well. I had been a very satisfied customer for quilton. This last time I changed to Sorbant against my better judgement. Show details
Follow-up · Yes all of the above. I previously would only purchase Quilton. Now I was tempted to go over to another brand, if quilton go back to stronger paper again i am reluctant to reverse my decision. If it improves I will certainly reverse my decision.
Positive reviews
I recently tried this "quilton" toilet paper, the kind with that fancy embossed pattern that's supposed to feel premium and quilted for extra softness. Big mistake. From the very first wipe, it was an absolute disaster. Instead of cleaning things up, it smeared my trash everywhere—like it was actively spreading and grinding it in rather than… Read more
lifting it away. The quilted texture turned into a slick, ineffective mess that just pushed everything around my cheeks and beyond.
And then it got weird. The paper was so soft and pliable that it tore and went inside my rectum really easily. One moment I'm wiping normally, the next half the sheet has slipped right in there. I expected horror, maybe a panicked trip to the ER... but nope. It was extremely pleasurable. Like, unexpectedly intense and satisfying in a way I can't quite explain. A full-on surprise prostate-adjacent tingle that made me pause mid-wipe.
Would I buy it again? Probably not for actual hygiene reasons, but if you're into that rare combo of chaotic mess and accidental internal delight... 3/5 stars. Just keep some gloves and a bidet on standby.

I liked quilton toilet paper and bought it for a long time. In the last 12 months or so i developed a very painful area in the moist area of my body where i used quilton. Pimples pain and bleeding which didnt go away until i changed toilet paper… Read more
about a month ago after i heard a review about quilton which made me think the toilet paper might be the cause of my problem. The soreness stopped straight away to the point where i can say it has stopped altogether one month later.
Follow-up · I switched to 'SAFE' toilet roll and I immediately noticed a change. I live in the country so my choice of purchase is limited. It is two ply and unscented. I can't believe how quickly the change occurred.
Nothing wrong with it – Been using it for decades, there's nothing wrong with it. Entire family use it. Refuse to buy any other brand. When staying in hotels, I always had my own pack. During the pandemic I couldn't find it and had to buy the horrible and inferior Kleenex and equally worse brands. When I could get it again, I threw out the awful inferior brands I had to… Read more
suffer with, because no one wanted them. Don't like Quinton, it's OK, plenty for the rest of us who do!
Negative reviews
I dislike Quilton and will no longer use it. Back in the day it used to be high quality, luxury. But since turning biodegradable it’s terrible and is now cheap and nasty. Very disappointing.
Quilton Toilet paper has defiantly got thinner and not as strong as the older paper i know because i have a roll of the old paper in my Possession and it is so so so much different to the new one as their saying goes my bum now hates Quilton Show details
Quilton 3ply by ABC used to be the marquee of Aussie toilet tissue with soft premium ( short fibre mix) feel at an attractive price position. Recently the quality dropped to a level comparable to the cheapest , low tier imported tissue at best! Now it feels “almost like crunchy wrapping paper”. Shame on ABC! Show details

Absolutely shocking product. I've been loyal customer since Quilton came on the market. Their 3 ply was piling really badly so I tried the new 5 ply ... worse, way more expensive for more tearing, piling, puncturing. Time to change brands! Show details
I used to love this product, the last batch I purchased though is awful. Very scratchy - guess I will be looking for a different brand now. Absolute shame, I have been purchasing this product for over 25 years. Show details
Quilton toilet used to be a really good quality brand with really soft sheets. Remember "Quilton loves ya bum"? Now Quilton loves ya wallet and apathy". Now they have decreased the width and the sheet count. The paper quality has dropped significantly too. OK, so you wanted to keep the price competitive but you are NOW ERODING THE PRODUCT BY… Read more
STEALTH!!!. We are told we have to expect Shrink-flation BUT this guy doesn't doesn't "BUY IT"....literally. Shrink- flation is, in my opinion, totally dishonest and people should consider if they are going to accept practise this any more.
No longer the soft loo paper it used to be - in Sydney at least. Now on holiday 700 k north and the Quilton paper from Brisbane ( it’s labelled inside the toilet roll) is so soft! Quilton please explain Show details

They charge a prmium price for their Toilet rolls and they have turned them into rubbish. The sheets fall apart and they are thinner and smaller. Quilton are only shooting themselves in the foot, their sales will drop like a rock.
Have been using this product for years quilton toilet paper Stuff is turn to rubbish, super thin, useless need to find new product. Will not be buying it anymore. Do not recommend this product. To anybody Show details
For decades, I have been using the extra long rolls. Won’t use anything else. Bit disappointed however that shrinkflation has now come into play. (Size has gone down and price has gone up). Before placing the role on the toilet roll holder, I had to… Read more · 1
use a bit of the paper first. With my latest buy, the rolls slide on to the holder with ease! Sneaky sneaky!
Follow-up · To answer the above 3 questions, the quality has not changed at all. I’m not going to be able to count the sheets but the photo below shows an old roll and a new (after shrinkflation) roll; neither one been used yet. To answer your third question, I always chose this brand because of the extra length roll.
I'm always promoting the double length quiltons toilet paper as the best. BUT I have been buying the triple length later to be very disappointed in it. The cardboard inside was collapsed with the weight and wont turn smoothly on the holder and you have bits of paper stuck to your private bits, and don't realise until the next time you visit the toilet. Show details
The roll width has decreased to 9.5 cm, the accepted standard is 10 cm. The roll are now too narrow to use on my holders. Won't be buying again, very disappointed.
I bought a batch of 3ply toilet paper and have noticed it's very thin. Not the quality I am used to. It's a shame that Quilton company dropped the quality of the product. I have to find another brand. Show details
Bad quality-why have they changed it – I have been using Quilton toilet paper for over 15 years. Over the past 5 years something has definitely changed. I continually get itch and rashes. I originally thought menopause related however I have seen several doctors who do swabs and say nothing is wrong. I beg to differ. I thought it may be the t.p. 2 years ago as when I go away and stay… Read more
elsewhere I never have issues. Finally the penny has dropped as this last batch has been extremely hard paper. Not sure what chemicals are being used. STAY AWAY from it. Have gone back to another major brand several days ago and already rash is clearing up. Spend your money elsewhere. If I could give NO stars I would.
Poor quality loo paper – I must have missed the memo with Quinton changing their product I noticed something different but thought maybe purchased another brand on previous sale That was not the case and I will not be buying the product again as it’s far from the product that it use to be Shame really prices were always reasonable for the bulk buy Hopefully they take… Read more
onboard the negative reviews and making some changes Quality is very poor now similar to some of the lost cost brand Thanks
