My gal was having trouble with her old toilet... high water volume use, incomplete flushes, never completely shutting off.

I guided my gal friend through selecting a dual flush from one of the big-box stores (Home Depot).

We were looking for:
  • highest 'flush power' rating (which usually means a large diameter opening at the bottom of the tank and also a smooth-glazed P-trap).
  • dual flush
  • low price

She got just what she wanted for $125 (US). We got it installed in about 30 minutes.

She's had it for about three months now, and never an incomplete flush. It just takes care of business and uses very little water.

Happy camper...
