Also FWIW, I know a couple of people who use those things a lot, especially their kids. Plumbers love them as they tend to clog sewers and generate income, homeowners who pay the big bucks to remove the clogs from the sewers have stopped using them.

Is it preservative free? (Do you want to be suppositorianing estrogen disrupters up your butthole?)MangoMan wrote:
Is it fragrance free? (Fragrances are the most carcinogenic of all chemicals. See above.)
Does it have active astringent/soothing ingredients? (Should be obvious...)
Its very hard to find all of the above in one product.
The major con of Dude Wipes it it tears/rips easily (taking it out of the box, that is). You'd think they would do better testing before rolling it out...

Unfortunately, many of the flushable wipes (including Costco) have been shown to be NOT safe to flush. As in regular use will likely still cause a plumbing problem. This kind of thing: http://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-sett ... n-lawsuit/MangoMan wrote:There are 2 kinds. "Baby wipes" are not flushable and will clog the sewer line. You put them in the diaper pail after use. The ones above, both Dude wipes and the Kirkland ones are flushable and will degrade in water. TMI, butt I can attest [pun and misspelling intended] that the Kirkland wipes are in no way feminine smelling and are better than a bidet [imo].Mountaineer wrote: Also FWIW, I know a couple of people who use those things a lot, especially their kids.

As to dude wipes ripping easily, maybe that means they are actually safe to flush. Unfortunately true flush ability and wiping durability are orthogonal design objectives without some kind of chemical magic.
I would also never but the Kirkland ones because they aren't made with solar energy, nor do they have masculine black packaging

But I don't use those things containing that stuff either!MangoMan wrote: Hey, you gotta die of something! Besides, those chemicals are in virtually every shampoo, shaving cream, body wash and liquid soap out there.
I think of all routes chemicals could possible take, your butthole ought to be the most protected. All stuff is absorbed like candy and bam its in the bloodstream.
