I can just imagine. When I gutted & redid the downstairs bathroom three years ago, when I went to buy a toilet I told the guy that I wanted one that would flush a Carhart jacket without clogging. I haven't tried to flush anything out of the ordinary, but so far it's handled some big jobs.

I can't believe I lived most of my life without a bidet.... I go through a roll of toilet paper about every 2-3 months now... TP is only for drying now.
