You should have gotten a Toto.

Toto is very overrated. They had a better one a few years ago but they are now no different than the rest.

What are you talking about? You better go check your facts. Nobody beats Toto in gravity flush.

I've been selling wholesale plumbing supplies for 7 years and I have my facts straight. Kohler and Amer Std are every bit as good, if not better, than Toto. I've seen demos that prove it.

They might be overrated but I love Toto toilets.

At our last place the toilet bowl developed a small crack and we replaced it with a Toto Drake which was on sale.

I miss that toilet :(

It's a good toilet but at that price point there are better options. When they first came out with the bigger waterway it was better but the comp has caught up. It's all personal preference.

I believe we all came here to pay our respect to a dying breed of Sh!t flushers. The days of the 6gallon are gone.

I don't want to see golf balls, I want to see results.

:music:Hello shitcan my old friend....
I've come to sit on you again....

Because a log is softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,

And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of porcelain.:music:

Try a bidet, perhaps? Should be more sanitary.


Really, toilet paper? Do you take a shower every day, or do you use a roll of paper towels and just wipe yourself off? And that's just for skin oil and sweat.

Easily the best rendition of Simon and Garfunkel I've ever herd.

HAHAHAHA I just moved from my apartment into an older house so now I don't have to poop -> flush, wipe -> flush, wipe again - > flush, final wipe -> last flush while holding down handle.
The last minute dumps on the way out the door in the morning lead to a brownie in the can at the end of the day if you are not careful.

Memorial day weekend was the worst, I dropped a big deuce on Friday morning then rushed out to work then straight to the beach. I came home Monday evening to a festering mess in the bowl.

Do business, flush 1.5 gallons used. Hmm didn't all go down, flush again, 3.0 gallons now used. Post business cleanup, flush 4.5 gallons used. Great clogged again, plunge and flush 6.0 gallons used. Final flush to clean out all the little bits of floating toilet paper, 7.5 gallons used. And no I am not going to go out and drop $200.00 on an item that a $50.00 item used to do just fine before the government got involved in the design process.

Coudln't have said it better... We shall pray to the porcelain gods for your fallen commrad, or commode rather...

If you're flushing the toilet 5 god damn times then you need to seriously think about re-evaluating your diet. I never have to flush more then 2 times. 3 gallons.

and split the bowl

Beneath the sound of porcelain...:music:

I just sang that to the tune of Creed's My Sacrifice (with appropriate pauses and using 'Sound of Porcelain' to bridge the verses) and it sounded awesome:shocked:
