So this may sound strange (or maybe you all experience it), but since I got the pouch, whenever I would use toilet paper to clean up in our unique way, it would basically pill up or crumble and become tiny pieces which would then stick to me and make me very uncomfortable. Finally, one day I realized I did not have this problem when I used a public bathroom, and the reason was because of the firm, more like a sheet of paper properties of it. I figured if I used the cheapest alternative at my local discount store, that would take care of it, and it did. Until they changed the paper recently. Does anyone suggest any particular brand to use?

Angel Soft and Quilted Northern are both good. Try both.
I like Quilted Northern Ultra Plush. I like my bidet even more.
I use Kirkland brand from Costco or Cottenelle. Either is good.
Thanks for the responses. I am not near a Costco. CTBarrister, is Quilted Northern similar to Angel Soft? Angel Soft is what gives me all the trouble.
Quilted Northern has a different texture than Angel Soft. You will have to try it. I have no problems with either brand.
- Quilted Northern Ultra.
My husband loves Charmin (mega)
Used to love cottonelle, but switched to charmin ultra. Also a big fan of wipes and an even bigger fan of my bidet!!
It might be possible for you to experience little to no burn, and use less toilet paper by using a bidet bottle to rinse first, then gently dab dry with any brand of toilet paper. No wiping required. I started off with a travel bidet bottle from Amazon, loved it so much and it healed my burning skin, I bought an attachment piece for the toilet so that water is "on tap" so to speak! I love my bidet. Cost around $100 or less.
I was in a Dollar store recently and saw the toilet paper they sell. It looks like a cheaper grade tissue, not too soft; a firm texture. You could probably use it to write a grocery list if you don't have notepaper! But it might be what you're looking for in a firmer tissue. Or, you could ask at the place where the public restroom is, and they might be able to tell you who supplies their facilities.
