Default Crap sticking to toilet pan

Probably the shape of the toilet pan.
With these low-water flush things, there is less and less target area,
and
in fact toilets are becoming pretty useless.


Seconded
When looking for a new pan, I specifically looked for a model with a near
vertical inner back face.
Many modern offerings have a fair slope on the rear face which it would be
difficult to avoid when lowering "product".


You should see some of the Dutch and German ones - older models.
These have a specific shelf so that you can inspect "product" for worms
before flushing.


All this being exacerbated by the low flush volumes currently fashionable of
course.


Which is why there is an aroma in many German city streets during the
summer. Inadequate volumes of water going through the sewers to
remove the tolies.
