Toto is the way to go. Thing will flush a dozen golf balls. I have the dual flush in the main BA and it’s awesome. Tried to save pennies w/ american standard from HD for basement BA and it is worthless. Will swap American Standard for Toto soon.

If you don’t get the dual flush or the crazy electronic one, the toto isn’t a bad deal.

@Rick – my mother has two of those super-sonic rocket crappers, and I contemplated getting one myself until I thought about how there is no surreptitious waste elimination in the middle of the night unless you opt not to flush until the morning. Those things are shockingly loud, but I suppose you might learn to block it out if you have a house full of people and the toilet sees a lot of action.

I love it when my mother fails to warn guests and they come out of the lavatory looking shell-shocked. Once in a while, the flush is accompanied by an audible gasp or a scream louder than the sound of the toilet. Priceless entertainment, but I keep telling my mother she needs to have old people sign a waiver before they go in.

your plumber doesnt get a cut of lowes…thats why he thinks they suck. Go there and buy a throne and install it yourself. A real man would.

This collection of comments deserves a place in the Hall of Fame, if only for the nod to EZ Pass…

I bought a condo recently that came with 3 Toto toilets. Awesome and quite uncloggable, even with my 13 year old son’s best efforts, which are Herculean.

And yes, Jeff, a toilet changeout is easy and fast. It looks as though the folks here could talk you through it if there were any problems.

Interesting that this topic came up – I was at my son’s middle school last night and had to take my younger boy to use the facilities. The floor of the “boys” room was flooded by the standups, so we had to use one of the 3 stalls. The bowl in stall #1 was full of piss and TP, the bowl in stall #2 (ha ha) had a triple-size Lincoln Log in it with NO TP – that poop looked like something otherworldly and scary – it was literally sticking up on its end out of the bowl, daring you to come near it. We finally got a reasonably clean place to pee in Stall #3. What a freakin’ nightmare.
