What’s your go-to toilet paper brand? Usually get Quilton in bulk from Amazon but they have no stock and I have no idea what to buy, it’s been my choice for ages.
The Aldi double length 3 ply Confidence brand. Comes in a four pack or an eight pack. Good quality, cheap and one roll lasts quite a long time. Yes it does fit in my roll holder. During covid I was getting the triple length rolls from colesworth and they only just fit the holder. My holder is a suction one from Bunnings and is not a permanent attachment but works fine on the tiled wall of the toot. And I can move it around if I want to or to clean the walls.
Who gives a crap, the bamboo one. Because large quantities of tp just turn up on the doorstep periodically and I don't have to think about it.
Not sure about the bamboo one but I saw aldi selling it in Jan
My Aldi has it too. But I prefer the Confidence brand for quality. WGAC is kinda flimsy, more expensive, harder to store that quantity and, I am not a fan of it. And my Aldi is so conveniently located that I don't need to buy in bulk. Though I did enjoy my sister's family xmas present just before covid, which was a Christmas themed WGAC toilet roll. Nearly as much fun as the photocopier paper reams with the covering paper printed with a gold mitre for the Pope's last visit to Melbourne. I nicked one of those from work for a souvenir.
The normal one is pretty ordinary, I get the bamboo one too. A big box lasts me like a year. Set and forget.
Kleenex double length.
Do they fit in a standard roll holder? Not that I know what a standard holder is, but mine don’t go very far off the wall.
It fits on my holder. That's a full roll.
The holder it's self doesn't move. I can measure the roll if you like.
No, they don't. The roll has to perch on top until it gets down small enough to fit on the holder
Ok so this is probably going to be controversial but I just use the cheap stuff they sell at aldi. I think they call it continence or something. It's just a simple 3 ply. No double length or king size, just normal
At my last place they just bought the cheapest garbage they could find. They bought 1 ply unperforated jumbo rolls, and it really sucked. It was rough, and if you were unwell with diarrhoea or whatever you were better off only doing a quick wipe and then showering because it was basically sandpaper. So my bog roll bar isn't particularly high
Quilton king size. Three pieces is too many.
