    They’re specifically flushable wipes, not actual wetwipes brand.

      No wipes are actually flushable.

        There exist flushable wipes that disolve in water but the issue is finding them.

        Interesting, although frustratingly it didn’t actually tell me what to watch out for. Just saying “no” to an entire product category seems like an excessively large hammer

          Because the bad products are claiming to be good. It’s a poisoned product category.

          A bidet is a safer option, and cheaper in the long term.

          If they dissolved while wet, they would turn into mush in the packaging. If you really want your wipes to be wet, moisten your TP before wiping.

            Toilet paper doesn’t dissolve when damp. Before you get condescending, think about if your criticism applies to the product you’re telling me to use instead.

              Lol, the TP turns to pulp when you flush, the wet wipes turn to goo. Don’t flush any kind of wet wipes.

              If you want to prove me wrong then put a wet wipe in a cup for 15min and a piece of TP in another cup then shake it. Send pics to update us.

                That’s not what the person I was replying to claimed.

                It’s still a good test though. Well I don’t actually know if it’s a good test, but it’s something, I might try it anyways.

      Inbefore people start saying those are a scam. Did you test if they actually dissolve in water?

        They’re sold wet, they don’t dissolve in water, that wouldn’t make any sense.

          You do realise they are not sold soaked in water? They are soaked with other things, you can check the packaging.

        Act particular reason why flushable wipes aren’t flushable? They’re already almost at the point of disintegration when you use them. As long as you’re not using a lot, it doesn’t seem like they’d cause a problem
