Bounty Paper Towels: How Much Mess Will One Roll Really Pick Up?

Inquiring minds want to know!

Thankfully, Rob at Cockeyed put a roll of Bounty paper towels to the test — like no one else can. You see, Rob likes to measure things… and count things… and figure out how things work.

His little household experiment with a roll of paper towels reveals just how many spills one roll of Bounty paper towels can really absorb!

See the results.

Rob is my hero.

I’ve been a fan of his website for a long time.

He’s part prankster, part consumerist, and part researcher. Give him any topic and he gets to the bottom of it!

Rob Cockerham was even on 20/20 recently. Check it out:

I like to help people find unique ways to do things that will save time & money — so I write about “outside the box” Household Tips and Life Hacks that most wouldn’t think of.

I’m super-organized. And I LOVE to clean! I even enjoy doing laundry (but not ironing). I’m also a lifelong dog owner — so I often share my favorite tips for living with dogs inside your home (like smart home design choices and dog-friendly cleaning & decorating ideas).

Career-wise, I’ve been sharing my best ideas with others by blogging full-time since 1998 (the same year that Google started… and before the days of Facebook and YouTube). Prior to that, I worked in Higher Ed over 10 years before switching gears to pursue activities that I’m truly passionate about instead. For example, I’ve worked at a vet, in a photo lab, and at a zoo — to name a few. I enjoy the outdoors via bicycle, motorcycle, Jeep, or RV.

When I’m not cleaning, organizing, decorating, or fixing something… you’ll find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites). To date, I’ve personally written over 200 articles about cleaning, organization, DIY repairs, and household hacks on this site! A few have over 2M shares; many others have over 100K shares.
