Flushable wipes

Which ones do your prefer? We've only tried the Target brand and they rip so easily. I understand they need to be flushable but I'm looking for some that are a bit stronger.
TIA.

I found the Kandoo brand to be just as junky. Not big on flushable wipes.

Don't do it. I, along with more than a couple of people I know, have had plumbing issues while using "flushable" wipes. We were all told by our plumbers never to use them.

Re: Flushable wipes

Never ever ever flush a flushable wipe
We learned the hard way.
After a $450 bill from Roto Rotor for an emergency Sunday call.
They told us that nothing more that TP is flushable. And even that must be 1 ply
It is HORRIBLE for your sewer system and pipes

Re: Flushable wipes

Ahhhh....soo good to know. I wondered how safe it was but since it didn't back up we thought we were in the clear.

So I guess I'll use regular baby wipes after she goes and just throw them in the trash. Iw. lol. Thanks!

Been using the Kandoo flushable wipes and have never had a problem. I just don't use many at a time.

Don't do flushable wipes. We've had to have our septic system roto rooted from them. only use toilet paper.

We taught our DD that TP goes int he toilet bowla nd wipes go in the garbage if she uses them.
