Our testing has shown that RV Digest-It Plus won't breakdown "flushable" wipes sufficiently enough for us to sign off on using them. Flushable wipes are big problem, and to our knowledge there are not waste digesters that are capable at this time to break them down. Take a look at the reports and videos on how these wipes are damaging municipal wastewater treatment plants. In our opinion they really should never be used because of the significant damage they cause.
I'm not sure if we've tested the Walmart branded ones, but we've tested several brands that aren't listed in this video and we've never found a brand that breaks down. We'll see if we can get our hands on the Walmart ones and add them to our testing!
@time3612 Right you are! I toured a waste water treatment facility earlier this year and the number one thing the technicians were adamant about was never using flushable wipes. Using them in a black tank is a recipe for clogs. Thanks so much for commenting!
Wonder what the results would be if you used a product which dissolves solids such as "digest it Plus"?

You need to try the Walmart kind and see if they break down.....

Yup, don't brake down. Clogged my down pipe. Lesson learned.
