can you comment on how powerful and/or efficient the flush is? thanks!

Still remodeling my bathroom so it's not up and running yet. On the other hand I work construction and I've always seen this brand go in the nicer buildings and they seem to work really well, which is why I decided to go this route as opposed to kohler. Looks really nice, love having the tank hidden in the wall, I think it will make cleaning much easier too. You could also add an assisted flush to increase the pressure if you need to.

The big flush is powerful and the small flush does the job. My only complaint is the small surface area of water in the bowl.

We haven't installed the toilet yet, so I don't know, sorry. It should be installed soon - I'll let you know how well it works once we've got it working.

The high flush is very powerful. The plumber who installed it said he thought it was a great toilet. There is quite a bit of exposed porcelain in the bowl that tends to get dirty and the flush does not quite remove that. No issue with carrying away anything in the bowl though. Overall very happy with it.

The amount of water used can be as little as one cup to as much as you want depending on how long you hold down the flush mechanize. I have had the china one & prefer this one as is has a more robust flush.

The bidet is WAY better than wet wipes. I end up using less than half the toilet paper I used to, even when I used wipes as well, and it is not even close how much cleaner and fresher it feels with the bidet. It takes a little getting used to, but I will never go back to just wiping. Some of my plumber friends have warned me about wet wipes causing problems with your plumbing as well because even if they say they are flushable, they don't break down very well. One guy says that he has heard the words "it says it's flushable right on the package!" by his customers so many times when he explains what caused their pipe blockage he believes that phrase put his kids through college.

Yes you just push the lever as usual and it fully flushes. One of the things I like is that the water in the bowl flushes right down. It doesn't flush up and around the bowl leaving germs up there--it flushes right straight down. Then water comes out all around the upper bowl and it flushes down too, leaving the bowl very clean. Have never had a problem with anything not going right away. And we have had this with another toilet where we even had to get the plunger out n work on getting it all flushed. Can't say enough about how satisfactory this Toto toilet is. No we're not getting paid for this! Yes you just push the lever as usual and it fully flushes.

Yes it does, that's what it is designed for. I woudn't flush anything that you would not normalyflush down a toilet. This is the second one that I have installed I have one in the house I live in now and am building a new house and have installed it there also.

I would say it does better than the swirly-type toilet. It also has the sanagloss which resists dirt better. Never had one clog with this toilet and that is far more important than the occasional mess people make. I clean mine quickly every day as recommended by flylady using MILD detergents, and could not be happier.

The flush is not 'quiet' but this toilet is excellent in every other way. Because of the extremely low water use, you have a funny kind of gurgle gulp noise! I don't know if the soft close lid is available.

I've used the green, the red, and the lavender (NOT my best) and the big clumps go effortlessly down my low-flow toilets which I was really surprised by. The old large volume flushes, no problem. The new toilets flush away easily too. Cats are 5 years old now so we've been using this litter for at least 4 1/2 years.

I never flush the used litter. I just bag it up and toss it. I honestly can't answer your question. Perhaps call the manufacturer and inquire about it with them.

It's probably not the most quiet flush, but it's not bad. For a low flow toilet it works really well. You can add on a soft-close lid for any toilet.

Flush no! This is the cheaper option. There is a more expensive option with a flush cover. I have cheap option which is perfect!

I have had no issues at all with these. I do not recommend flushing more than one at a time to be on the safe side.

Hi Julie. If you hold the handle for approximately 2 seconds it will flush solid waste. It is not like older toilets where you are holding the handle for 5 seconds or longer hoping and waiting for the waste to circle the toilet bowl. I wrote my review about 2 years ago and I have had no issues with these Toto toilets.

for me, it took about 10 minutes of steady flushing, make sure you lean your ear downwards in the sink while you flush. if you are patient it will work!

Stays clean. Best toilet i have ever had and I am a conservation person for a utility. Flush is quiet and takes care of all the waste. Looks good too !

I don't know what that is but I can tell you it is a powerful flusher. Rarely is a second flush needed. You would not think you could get this kind of performance from a 1.28 gallon toilet.

On my toilet it is at a lower level. About half as high with the half flush. I installed the unit as it came making no adjustments ( with one unit on each of my two toilets ) It doesn't seem to make any difference that I can see. I use half flush all the time even on solid waste. I do how ever use a portable bidet on all my toilets and my family and I tend to use less toilet paper as well as having better hygiene. I imagine I could adjust it ( if I cared to ) but of coarse use more water as a result.
