Or for a more humorous account: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgHVO-RZ8c4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgHVO-RZ8c4 In short: They're not flushable, regardless of what the packaging says. Soluble dry paper or water works. Japan's got it right.
- bitsoda 10y agoBidets are the way to go, aside from being harmful to the plumbing system, soft wipes still require you to, well, wipe which is kind of barbaric once you get used to cleaning your bum with a jet of water and simply drying yourself after. It also saves a lot of money on paper costs if you use a towel to dry off.
- kpil 10y agoA) saving money. It would take quite some time to recuperate the expensive toilet. Probably at least 10 years. B) DON'T flush them. C) I really don't feel as clean from a jet spray. And I don't like it. Especially if the toilet is not mine. D) You can bring your wipes everywhere. They will work in a desert, the forest, or ISS... I buy baby wipes for the purpose... They are awsome.
