2 times a week with a Clorox wand. Makes life really easy.

With four boys (and a husband), no matter how often, it’s never enough. I’ve learned to look (and wipe) before I sit!

I have cleaning help but did not during the first few months of lockdown. I was also not feeling well for most of that time. My husband was working full time and trying to do basic cleaning. Sometimes we went a few weeks without cleaning the bathrooms. However we are four people with three bathrooms. The bathrooms really didn’t smell or look dirty at all. Unless you count wiping down the actual toilet seat if I specifically noticed it looked dirty, which it rarely does. (I’d still do this in between cleaning lady’s cleanings if needed.)

We don't clean the toilets, we just replace them before Pesach each year

I have five bathrooms in my house. They probably get a good cleaning once the twice a week for sure once. but every single time I take my little one to the bathroom, where I go to the bathroom I wave it down with Clorox wipes so depending what bathroom I'm going to that's how often they get clean.
I am NOT a neat person btw. I do consider my self functional though even if my house flies. Lol

Keep colorox wipes near the toilet to wipe down the seat as needed.

Outside, once a week, but I don't have little boys. More often if its needed.

The bowl, anywhere from 1 to 3 times a week. https://www.scrubbingbubbles.c.....brush Life changing.

I have cleaning help :3 times a week and I don’t think it has to do with cleaning help. I clean my toilet every morning and evening. We have one in our house for 4 people. When I do it I also clean the sink and the floor and with a shmatta. When the cleaning lady comes she does the same plus wash the bathtub and a bit more through. It takes 3 minutes tops.

Good luck with that. There's a shortage.

I rarely use them. All purpose cleaner and a Handi Wipe does the same job.

No boys in my house. More toilets than people. (Not wealthy or a mansion, man plans and Hashem laughs).
Never had it ever smelled.
Just clean it when there is visible ring/something that didn't go down cleanly or dust on the tank. If you make a spot (period) clean it immediately.

No cleaning lady or anyone coming into my house since COVID.
We clean when we see the diet and it bothers us.
