JL Sargent Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Well if you have a Sam's Club nearby check them for a nice elongated toilet. I recently installed two of these at my parents home. They love em. For starters they are about 2" taller than most. Much easier to get off of. They have two buttons on top labeled 1 and 2. You get the idea there.[] Price is about $100.00. Hard to be the toilet fo the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oscarsear Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Sloan power flush. It uses less H2O and because of the power design it can still dump a good load. Yep, these are the ones that woosh with the sound of an Atlas-Thor booster rocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverSport Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 DOFINY from Menard's...it isn't very expensive...I had a recent bathroom remodel and wanted a TOTO...they couldn't deliver in time and the remodeler already had this DOFINY...I went to Menard's and was disappointed when I saw the price and the installer told me, "I've had good luck with these and no complaints yet."...it has been three months and it works...just another thought for you to consider... Bill ...do yourself the favor of an AMA (taller) toilet and elongated bowl...I'm sure you considered it already but much better... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fini Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 When efficiency is the main concern, look for a horn-loaded toilet. It has the added benefit of lower distortion. Depending on the bathroom, you may want to install ***-traps, but if done right, you can just plop down in the sweet spot and let it happen.

Rivernuggets Posted April 1, 2011 Author Share Posted April 1, 2011 Rivernuggets Check out this link...amazing new technology that really works. .8 gallons per flush, wow! That's amazing. I ended up buying a Kohler Cimarron for $228 at Home Depot, 1.28 gallons / flush. Later on we'll buy another for our second bathroom. In the meantime I'm going to read more about different models. Especially that Niagra Stealth Toilet. This thread is very illuminating. Thanks guys! Keep up the good poo, um, work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilbert Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Okay......I am seriously asking for opinions on a toilet that won't use so much water. Our house has two toilets that are using too much every flush. I've been looking around online and, like so many other things in our culture, there are too many options. I'd like a single flush model using 1.28 gallons at most, or a dual flush using 1.6 / .9 (or .8 or 1). Wisecracks are inevitable here. Either way, give me some Sh_t. I mean advice. Thanks guys. Want a nice refrig... get a SubZero, Want a nice gas-top, get a Wolf, Want a nice toilet, .... get a Toto. http://www.totousa.com/Products/Toilets.aspx It's the kind of crapper the eccentric Architects love to spec for big fancy homes. Some have built-in vents that draw oders away and out the vent pipe. They make some Extreme Efficiency toilets as I seem to recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtimer Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Wan't a crapper that you can easily fix yourself? And we all know they always need repairs after a while. Go on the plumbing sites and find out how easy and inexpensive they are to repair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
