Has anyone had problems flushing these? Our plumbing is from the 1960s. From the warnings on the package, not clear if they're flushable.

We've had no trouble flushing ours, but I have heard that it's best to let the liners soak for a minute or two before flushing, to let them start breaking down. Hope that helps!

We don't have problems flushing them, although I only use them occasionally.

We haven't been flushing them. There is another brand we tried, which comes in a box shaped like a Kleenex box, and those are clearly flushable. The description on these does say, "Simply remove the liner and flush." So maybe it's fine.

We Haven't had nay problems flushing them. There was only one time when I flushed it down with about 3 non-flushable baby wipes that it clogged it and it unclogged pretty easy. If you are worried about it, I would just flush one at a time. It should be fine.

They leaked a bit with just water. Make sure you have the bottoms on completely tight. It wasn't generally a big problem for me.

Layton,I have had mine well over a year. I think it would depend on how they are installed and how often they are used. I took mone and got them professionally installed. I have had no issues. They work great and are helpful.

I do not flush or empty mine. I had the previous version which lasted many, many years, with only an occasional flushing with vinegar. I do used instilled water because it was needed with the earlier one and it's just habit. LOVE these irons!

I have two Totos (6 years) and have not had a problem like you describe. Are you familiar with the Terry Love plumbing forum? Check it out. I am there quite often looking for answers to any plumbing concerns.

Depends on how quickly your water starts to looks like it's beginning to get "less than clear". (best to get them cleaned before the water gets too bad) But they're SUPER EASY to clean and I have only replaced mine once in several years. No concern there.

One of my rentals built in 1943 had this problem with all forms of toilet paper. Finally I had a great plumber replace the sewer lines with pipes that are up to the current code, eliminated excessive elbows and installed them with the correct slope. No issues at all now at any of my 4 rentals or the home I live in. And let me tell you, renters can be hard on pipes.

Good luck with that. They will probably end up not working. I bought two and one never worked from the start and the other worked a little, but the color was never right. Now neither of them worked. We called the company, but never got a response. The tub faucet works great - no problems.

Hi there ... sorry, no ... these are not flushable. They are compostable and bio-degradable.

I'm not a plumber, however I understand that slow-flushing toilets are generally related to mineral deposits, which this will not resolve. Also, when it arrived there was a sticky on the container indicating that it is not designed for home use.

This gets asked frequently and I'm happy to say there is a positive answer! Mine were dated at least a year out and I've seen others post the same response. Hope that helps!

I use these along with vinegar instead of jet dry. The only time we had any issues it was discovered that there was no salt in the water softener- check there if you have any problems. I've subscribed these they work so well!

I have without any problems. Just like with any liquid, don't fill them too full.

Just make sure they are within your reach .you will need to make sure you can pull back with top of your foot to reset them.I replaced ones in my kayak and needed to drill new holes .I plugged old ones and siliconed all hardware and hasn't leaked a drop.

Good question. I installed one in each of the three toilets in the house almost 3 months ago and they are still working at 100%. No rings and no sign of dirt. As soon as I start seeing a ring, I'll replace them. I hope this helps.

I had no problem. Don't know if you had bad fitting or simply over tightened. I had normal supply tube fittings on my toilet.

Nope. They are really beautifully hand painted/glazed. Have mind about 1 1/2 years now, and never had any problems.
