- DE88ROXExplorerJust use this simple test
- ruppriderExplorerWe only use what Danica Patrick uses! Sorta lime green
- WoodGlueExplorerCostco's Kirkland brand is the only brand I'll use in the bathroom, at home and in the trailer. It passes the water and shake test w/ flying colors.
WoodGlue - 2gypsies1Explorer III16 years of full-timing and lots of boondocking or dry camping and never had an issue with toilet paper. We use either Scotts or Angel Soft.
- Francesca_KnowlExplorerHe also invented the first toilet paper.
He and old man Sears drove Monkey Wards out of business due to the superiority of the "feel" of the S/R catalogue pages.
Plus they dissolved much better in the outhouse hole, thereby reducing by 1/3 the number of fresh holes folks had to dig in the backyard each year! - 2oldmanExplorer IIIt's Roebuck. What was that.. 50 years ago?
- AlternExplorer
Who is Robuck? Is that some special Sears store?
I believe its spelled Roebuck.
Upon further investigation via Google, there is this: Alvah Curtis Roebuck, co-founder of Sears, Roebuck and Co., was born on January 9, 1864, in Lafayette, Ind. - rkentzelExplorer

Really ? - Matt_ColieExplorer III want to thank those that provided meaning replies. My concern is not without some basis, but the information I have is old.
Why? (I know some of you think that this is frivolous.)
In the long distant past, I did work for Thetford in their R&D group. The copies of all the warranty reports for all products came to my desk. The number of reported paper clogs was not trivial. We identified even then that Charmin and another (forgotten) brand were the real culprits. It seems that they were even stout enough to clog the 3" opening of a Slide-Eze valve that was then the standard dump valve.
We will soon be doing something we rarely do. That would be park the coach in one place for a week. Using a lot of water in flush is simply not an option. Tanks are only so big overnigths at campgrounds will be rare while we are traveling and dumping at the rally will be less than convenient.
Again - Thanks to you all
Matt - sowegoExplorerPoster whose test is failing...wow! Even for long term stays there is still movement in the tank with each flush then dumping, etc. The paper holds together enough to still be picked up? I did not have to really shake the jar of water hard, only a little swishing did the trick. I will test the next batch of paper I buy too....still wondering why your test failed...:E
