    I bomb at work, be surprised how much money you save even if its equivalent to 80 grit sandpaper.

        To ride rough is better than riding dirty.

      I shit alone, at home
      I don't want anyone to know
      That I don't have the pressure of the other boys
      They make a noise
      It scares me sooo

    To save clicking on the link, what was the assessment criteria?

      How we test toilet paper

      • Perforation

      We measure the ease of separating the toilet tissue at the perforation. The easier it is for the toilet paper to tear, the better.

      • Puncture

      We measure the strength of the toilet paper by testing its resistance to puncturing. In this test a higher force is the most desirable result, meaning your finger is less likely to go through the paper.

      • Disintegration time

      We time how quickly the toilet paper disintegrates. The faster the better – you want your toilet paper to break up quickly as it moves through sewage, making it less likely to block pipes.

      The quickest product takes just over a minute to disintegrate while some products took just over 16 minutes to disintegrate.

      • Softness

      In this test we measure how soft the toilet paper is. This is a subjective assessment conducted by a panel of five people. We then convert their rank order into a percentage score.

      Test criteria explained

      The overall score is made up of:

      • Disintegration time (30%)
      • Softness (30%)
      • Separation (tear) force (20%)
      • Puncture (strength) force (20%)

      Makes sense. Quilton is actually a really decent product and constantly on offer.

        Puncture resistance is very important
        .

      • HighAndDry on 14/02/2019 - 14:36
        +3

        Disintegration time (30%)
        Softness (30%)
        Separation (tear) force (20%)
        Puncture (strength) force (20%)

        Do they have a breakdown of the scores for each? Because my own weighting would've been something like:

        Disintegration time (5%)
        Softness (10%)
        Separation (tear) force (0%)
        Puncture (strength) force (85%)

          Agree, can always call a plumber for a blocked pipe..

        • Lastchancetosee on 15/02/2019 - 08:08

          Agreed. It's worth checking out the individual figures. Aldi had a higher puncture score than the almost all the recommendations for their 3plys and better value per sheet, and were only a few percentage points under the winners.

        Surely price should be a criteria?

        • follow on 14/02/2019 - 15:01

          no. it should be reviewed irrespective of price.
          that way you can judge the results based on price.

          • John Kimble on 14/02/2019 - 15:05

            @follow: True I guess. I actually clicked on the link and they do list the prices for reference at least.

    The winner on value was the Banking Commission final report.

    I don't know how the Kleenex ones made it into the list.
    I remember getting the Kleenex ones yonks ago because it felt soft. But I found that I ended up with brown fingers too many times. Never again after that.

    Quilton is the best! :)

    • Cluster on 14/02/2019 - 14:46

      I bought this last weekend and am satisfied. Long rolls, Australia made, good price.

    Coles Toilet Tissue 2 ply 18 pack @ $0.12 per 100 sheets looks like the winner.
