If I am alone - whichever one doesn't have anything floating on top. If I am with the kids - the handicap one

I'm not too picky... whichever one has a working lock .. enough toilet paper .. nothing too gross around the floor or seat .. and clean inside the bowl so I know it flushes Chat Icon




I do this!

Do you use the first stall, one in the middle or go to one closer to the end?

I read an article that said the first stall has the LEAST amount of germs because people tend to head towards the back of a restroom for more privacy.




I've actually read the opposite, that most people head for the first stall, which is why I head for the last Chat Icon

Chat Icon My thought exactly!

But seriously I go to whatever looks the cleanest - it also depends what I have to do as well. Chat Icon

I always try to use the first because I've heard it is typically less used and therefore cleaner.

The first clean one that I can find...if they are all "equal" I always go in the second. IDK why, just what I've always done

Middle... I feel like "everyone" would pick the first, whether because of convenience or whether they think everyone ELSE would chose the last.

Re: Public Restrooms...which stall do you use??

interesting, I usually start with the one closest to me and go down the row to see which looks the cleanest. If I have the 3 kids with me I always use the handicap stall.

The first one, it's usually the cleanest.

ETA: At least that's what Oprah told me, and I figure if she's peeing in the 1st stall then it's good enough for me!



Oprah uses public restrooms? I guess I just assumed she had one built whenever/wherever she had to go. Chat Icon

Re: Public Restrooms...which stall do you use??

I absolutely hate public restrooms. I have become so used to holding it in that I can be at work all day (8:30am-4:30pm) & never go. I know, its very bad for you but public restrooms gross me out.

However, there have been times that I have really had to go, so I do a search & find the cleanest stall & thats the stall I use. I also carry my own toilet paper, seat covers all the time & lysol wipes.

The middle because everyone that read that thing about the first being the cleanest doesn't make the first the cleanest anymore! Chat Icon

Re: Public Restrooms...which stall do you use??

I read the same thing about the 1st one, so I usually try to go to that one if it is not occupied. but for some reason at work I always go in stall #2, no matter what... and if someone is in that one, I feel weird using a different stall.... I have issues!

I always go to the first one or the last one- never in between. In my office though- the first one gets the most use.

Re: Public Restrooms...which stall do you use??

We have a 6 stall bathroom at work and I was actually thinking about this the other day. I was going to post a poll on here.

I think everyone has read or heard the same thing, about the first one being the cleanest. But if the majority of the population heard the same thing and are using the first one, am I wrong in thinking it's not the cleanest anymore? From the responses, I am thinking a lot of people are using the first one...
