Hi all

Just thought there might be some of you out there needing a laugh - partly
at my expense - groan.
Just come off the phone with Ideal Standard Customer services having
complained about the lack of bowl flushing in our Alto toilet.
The chirpy madam on the other end claimed that "due to water regulation
reducing the flush volume from 7 litres to 6, this is a non-self-cleaning
pan"!

Told her that at time of purchase this was not highlighted in any of the
literature.

She said that I should sprinkle talcum powder down the bowl and then flush
the toilet and ring her back with the dimension of non-cleaned pan.

How a non-self cleaning pan can pass required hygiene standards I have no
idea.
As most of the female population will tend to direct their fluid waste to
the front of the pan, I fail to see why this area should be given less
priority than any other as far as the cleaning goes!

Any comments?
