I had a couple of bathrooms remodeled a few years ago and I was very skeptical of the low water toilets.
The contractor assured me that I'd be happy with them so I gave them a try.
He was absolutely, 100% correct.
I put in the Gerber high profile, elongated toilet. Uses, 1.25 gal/flush IIRC, and they work better than the toilets they replaced.
I still have an old 5 or 6 gal. flush toilet in the basement. It operates correctly but doesn't flush nearly as well as the Gerbers.
I'm good with the new toilets.

My brother had a low-volume toilet that seemed to have some sort of vacuum or something and it worked well.

But that’s not my point. My point is I don’t think the government should be into the smallest details of our lives. If I want a fancy toilet, I’ll buy it; if I want an old-fashioned toilet, that should be OK too. The manufacturers should decide which models to put on the market, not the government.

I have a gerber too. Still stops up.

They finally started to get the new ones right several years ago. Before that, for a decade they were awful.
