| Tea Towel |
I was lucky enough to review a Tea Towel and a Tote Bag for free from The Radical Tea Towel Company in return for a review. I will do the 'Advantages' part of the review separately but on the same page to make it easier to see which product I am reviewing for the company. For everything else in the review will be for both the products.
Advantages For The Tea Towel:
When I first received the Tea Towel, I straight away put it into the washing machine to loosen it up and make it less stiff because the Tea Towel was brand new and quite rough. After it came out of the wash, I put it on the radiator and waited for it to dry. I really liked the idea of the 'Carbon Footprint' and the quote which reads 'Tread softly, for you tread on my dreams.' (Yeats). I thought this went very well with the Tea Towel and the colour of the Tea Towel which is Green. This would represent the environment. This is great for a Tea Towel because whenever you are in the kitchen cooking or simply just washing your hands you will always need something to dry your hands and using the Tea Towel you would obviously want to read what it says and it will remind you to use less and recycle and not waste more than you actually need. Even if you have read the quote on the Tea Towel before, using it again you already know what it says and it does play in your mind and make you want to recycle your rubbish or simply stop using excess water or food. The Tea Towel itself feels great quality and not a cheap tea towel which you will purchase and a few days down the line its ruined and ripped. The Tea Towel is made from 100% Premium Cotton and it is stitched on all four sides.

| Shopping Bag |
I was extremely impressed by the durability of the Vegetarian Ethical Bag. It feels like quality and not something that you would get from a store that when carrying your shopping in, the handles will snap on you and everything goes all over the road. Yes this has indeed happened to me. Not once but TWICE. You would think once would be enough and you would learn from your mistakes but nope not me. Enough of me complaining and back to the actual product. The handles are strong and can hold quite a lot of weight. I put my two six pint milk bottles and a few of my energy drinks into this bag. Yes it was heavy but my husband did all the lifting and even he was surprised it did not rip of the handles did not snap. The sewing and stitching on the product is superb and strong. The Tote Bag is Colorful and full of lots of fruit and veg pictures on the bag.
Disadvantages:
The only disadvantage which I came across was for the Tea Towel. When you accidentally get a stain on the tea towel and wash it, it still appears slightly but I suppose this is something which you will expect on a tea towel which is not a problem to be totally honest. There are many other products which you can use like stain remover to get out of the product. I did not come across any disadvantages for the Tote Bag.
Safety/Packaging:
The products came tightly packed together and there was no damage to any of the products. The products are 100% safe to use. The colouring on the Tote Bag go very well together and the way the Tea Towel is laid out is also incredible and the colours and font blend well together too.
Overall Rating:
I rate the Tea Towel: 9/10 due to one little disadvantage which can be fixed with stain remover. If you wish to purchase this product from the company, click the link below;
