Cottonelle Ultra Comfort Toilet Paper, Double Rolls
A thick, textured 2 ply that cleans well, though Charmin tests softer.
The short version
- Households that want a textured 2-ply that cleans in fewer sheets
- Homes on septic systems that want a paper labeled septic safe
- Anyone who prefers a thicker sheet
- Softness is the top priority
- Your plumbing clogs easily and you need the fastest dissolving paper
- You want the lowest cost per sheet
What owners like
- Cleans effectively thanks to the rippled texture
- Feels thick and a bit stretchy, closer to a paper towel than thin budget tissue
- Balances comfort and cleaning well
Common complaints
- Not as soft as Charmin Ultra Soft in side by side comparisons
- Leaves some lint behind
- Dissolves only moderately, so very old plumbing may do better with a thinner paper
Based on Lab and panel testing from TechGearLab and Your Best Digs, a consumer blog review, and a plumbing company's septic safe toilet paper guide.

What it does
A 2-ply rippled toilet paper sold in double rolls, formerly labeled Ultra ComfortCare and now sold as Cottonelle Ultra Comfort in a purple package.
- Rippled texture that Cottonelle says is designed to clean better
- Package claims it is stronger, thicker and more absorbent than leading brands
- Labeled septic safe and sewer safe
- Positioned by Cottonelle as softer than its Ultra Clean line, which targets residue removal
A good fit for households that want a soft, textured 2-ply that cleans well and is labeled septic safe. Independent tests disagree on how it stacks up: one panel rated it top for softness and strength, while TechGearLab scored it middle of the pack and below Charmin's Ultra lines. If maximum softness or fast dissolving matters most, other brands test better.
