If you make big poops like someone I know who lives in this house
Buy this one!!!! If you make big poops like someone I know who lives in this house, this is the toilet for you! They engineered the flush valve , exit hole, exit jet and bowl shape to grab those unwanted rods and flush them away. I don't know what the other manufacturers are focusing on, but it's not flushing.
I was super skeptical, but with a new house extension and prime return policy, I decided that I was not settling for some HD or Lows American substandard toilet. I got to researching. A month later, I had figured that the best one was the Drake II toilet. So I got two. I saw the reviews where they come broken, but believe me, these things come in the best Amazon style package system I have ever seen.
One you got it, it's ready to work. The flapper is already installed, you just need to bolt the new toilet to the floor....use a foam doughnut.... And then attach the tank to the base. Anyone can do it, a tradesman for sure.
I got curious and disassembled the valve. It's so much better than flush master! First, it has a linkage mechanism that activates the pressure assisted valve. Second, to get to all the gaskets it's literally tool free/ hand tight and uver easy to do. Flush masters seem to dissolve in water. This one has no traditional flapper. It has this huge washer in cage thing that acts as the flapper. It seems to dump the entire tank in about two or three seconds. That plus the huge jet hole is what makes this toilet unique in my experience. Yes it's loud for two seconds, then its done. No need for pressure systems. This is one powerful jet. Check out the YouTube videos. That's what convinced me. But I was skeptical up until the point where a real duky said it's last prayers under my watch. You see, even just testing gives you the impression that it's just another toilet. But once the real scenario presents itself, that's when you get your big Aha! Moment. So satisfied. Thanks Toto!
