The Kitchen Table

Poo-Pourri

11 years ago

I'm not kidding. I saw it for sale for the first time on QVC about 2 weeks ago. Thought to myself, WHAT? Then DH sends me this link to a poo-pourri commercial. Said it's all over the internet, I never saw it before.

WARNING! Hilarious bathroom humor, I had tears running down my face laughing. But I am a sucker for adolescent bathroom humor. I think what makes it so funny is the very proper British accent.

Enjoy!

I was shopping at a boutique a few months ago and thought it was a joke. It's not! LOL I bought it for my DB and word says it really works.

I love the commercials for it, they are hilarious, but I am sure some will find it offensive.

I've never bought it but I have seen it on QVC for years. Like some said here it does work and apparently sells well.

Question about the Toto Washlet deodorizer
Q
Comments (28)
It's been 3 years since our Toto toilet and washlet were installed. We just found the "deoderizing catalyst" part, rinsed it, and then wasn't sure that was a good thing. I searched and found this stream of comments. I can say, in 2024, that the "catalyst" is still not mentioned in any documentation. They only mention cleaning the little plastic filter that keeps dust out of the workings. But these posts have been a great help. I just purchased a pack of 2 filters from Amazon and will add "change the filter" to my calender a year from now.

Explain...Gas Chamber.

This thread has made me laugh and laugh. Because I’m married I need a separate toilet. I love my husband but can’t abide him needing to using the same space as me while I put on makeup or take a bath or however else I have ended up trapped for much longer than him in a stinky bathroom. Even in renovating our temporary house, while we wait to build, excellent venting and the most powerfmil bathroom fan we could buy were absolute musts and I don’t regret a cent. But a separate room WITH those fans would make me happier, still. The injury/aging in place issue is interesting. I am just recently out of a wheelchair from a broken ankle and in fact could NOT use our front bathroom, which had the toilet and shower separated from the sink by a door. Not enough distance between doors to get in and get it closed or turn around. I could use our narrow-but-open master bath toilet though. The gas chamber issue in this house could have been rectified with proper space planning or even pocket doors though, and as we are designing an accessible home with our architect I am very sensitive to allowing proper turning radius space in bathrooms and appropriate distance between doors. And honestly, the suite area for our special needs son and older relatives will likely not have a door on that toilet, but just be around a corner with a half wall or something similar. Because while doors can be navigated, for someone permanently walker/wheelchair bound (like him) it’s a frustrating impediment. I’m weirdly glad for that aspect of breaking my ankle, because it gave me some very different perspectives on how spaces actually function from a chair when you CAN’T get up or hop around. So while the whole house design of our place will be universal/accessible to some degree, for actual day to day living activities the suite will be MUCH moreso. Water closets make me happy, I love them, but they do have limitations and need special design consideration when one is disabled or aging in place.

Ok, I finally pulled the trigger and bought the sconces in this pic, attached. I figured I could always resell or put them elsewhere in the house if they don’t look good. I’m still trying to determine if I should change the mirror to a gold frame and/or the same Brizo faucet to the gold finish. Maybe I should just wait until I install the sconces to decide? Happy Memorial Day!

I bought some due to the fact that our restroom at work is not very private. It really works and I'm not self-conscious if I have to use it. Nobody knows what's going on inside the stall, lol. You just spray a film over the toilet water before you do your business and it smells nice and lemony in there.

I've seen advertisements for it. Afraid to try it. It reminds me of the "sh_-rus" joke I've seen on Pinterest several times.

I'm waiting for someone to come in and tell us how silly we are for being concerned about odors, that everyone poops and we should all get over it. LOL. It happens every time we discuss this type of product.

There's a recipe for a homemade spray, if you google for it. I prefer the little drops. It makes sharing a bathroom much more pleasant.

I saw a Good Housekeeping magazine today and there was the ad for Poo Pourri. I hadn't seen nor heard of it before.

Here, we have a teeny little bottle called "Just a Drop" and you put one drop into the toilet before going. The 'original' smell is eucalyptus, and I know some people hate that smell and can get headaches. But it lasts just seconds, and it works! They now have different scents.

When this first came out a few years ago, I bought one for everyone for Christmas! I got some weird looks from some family members but everyone loved it once they tried it. LOL

That's the stuff I love, Jasdip! I'm not usually a fan of eucalyptus, but in this application, it's perfect!

With the spray, there's a chance someone will mis-use it and spray it into the air, not the bowl. That's not going to happen with the drops. :)
