We use Kirkland and have never had a problem....and DH is a notorious overused of TP. 😛 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toilet-paper-clogs#post-2286351 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 09:10:50 +0000 birdofafeather 2286351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Costco </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toilet-paper-clogs#post-2286317 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 08:34:16 +0000 gingerbebe 2286317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Costco! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toilet-paper-clogs#post-2286249 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 06:38:52 +0000 regberadaisy 2286249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: @birdofafeather: good housekeeping did a toilet paper test and they said Kirklands is good for finicky plumbing too! Is that Costco or Sam's Club? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toilet-paper-clogs#post-2286210 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 01:52:57 +0000 birdofafeather 2286210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have issues sometimes because we also save up #1s but it was actually our crappy (rental) toilets to blame as the pipes were fine. Those got replaced and we've been doing much better. We use Kirkland. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toilet-paper-clogs#post-2285789 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 14:09:47 +0000 gingerbebe 2285789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Scott's is good for clogs but its REALLY thin and while I don't care personally, I feel a little sheepish when guests come over. We haven't had problems with Kirkland as PP said, and we've had no problems with Angel Soft, which is another budget brand but not as thin and industrial as Scott's. Scott's makes a thicker/cushier TP that's good too.</p> <p>You could get Scott's and have a package of wet wipes or Kandoo wipes on top of the toilet for AFTER dry wiping and make VERY clear it goes in the trashcan. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toilet-paper-clogs#post-2285727 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 13:35:26 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2285727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use the Quilted Northern 2-ply. We had clogging issues with the 3-ply Quilted Northern but the went away immediately when we switched. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toilet-paper-clogs#post-2285666 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 12:42:21 +0000 Corduroy 2285666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've been running into minor issues because of the drought (not flushing #1's). I never considered changing TP. Interesting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toilet-paper-clogs#post-2285663 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 12:40:03 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2285663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, i've heard the same exact advice. Charmin is just too thick. </p> <p>We use Scotts and actually like the Kirkland better (just a tad nicer but still no plumbing issues) . </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toilet-paper-clogs#post-2285657 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 12:31:12 +0000 Peasinapod 2285657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh that sucks! I'd never even considered that as an issue. I'm always excited when charmins goes on sale. Maybe I should switch to a less luxurious type... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/toilet-paper-clogs#post-2285656 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 12:27:14 +0000 regberadaisy 2285656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've been battling a sewer pipe clogging problem for a few months. Almost 600 dollars later the plumber (2nd one that came out) suggested that Charmin is to be blamed. He suggested switching to single ply Scott's. I did some internet research and turns out though Charmin is very soft on the bum it sucks at dissolving in water. Problematic when you have finicky plumbing, which we do. Sigh. I did some research and we're going to take the plumbers advice and switch to singly ply Scott's. Nothing to lose, right? But I also read that target up &amp; up dissolves really great too.</p> <p>Anyone else have toilet / sewer pipe clogs and toilet paper was to blame? What did you switch to and did it help?</p> <p>Eta; we only flush toilet paper down the drain. And evidently we should be flushing then wipe then flushing. </p>
