Do you use the special disintegrating toilet roll or do you just use ordinary? We were thinking of just buying cheapo toilet roll that would be thinner than our usual more luxurious sort but would this bung up the loo? Tia.

People can get brainwashed into thinking that only special loo rolls should be used for cassette toilets but there was a thread on here last year on this very subject and about 95% of people used ordinary toilet paper without any problems. I for one wouldn't pay the extortionate prices they charge and we have never used anything else apart from the toilet paper we use at home.

A friend of mine did an experiment with toilet rolls (with water, I hasten to add). He used the "proper" ones for cassette toilets versus Tesco value ones. He found that the Tesco ones broke down quicker but the "proper" ones broke down finer.

Always used to use the proper one but it never seemed to break down properly anyway so we switched to ordinary own brand stuff.

We use Wilkinsons value ones, 6 for  £1.07 I think, they have always been excellent and break down very quickly.

I only use the Fiamma loo roll when I find them on special offer - a 6 pack seems to last ages!

If your using ordinary loo paper make sure there is no paper left in the cassete as it can jam the float arm.
