This is what really steams me! I hate to use the old frog-in-the-pot parable but that is what is happening here. Hardly anyone remmebers toilets that work well, and now we have many other appliances (washers, dishwashers, etc.) that don’t work worth a diddle and are horribly expensive and detergents that don’t clean. Instead of blaming the enviro-fascists, the EPA, and liberals, people blame the companies making these products. It’s infuriating!

I didn't consider that. But I have to agree. I sold a toilet that was manufactured in the 1980s for my father. He was amazed at how much people were willing to buy it for. It was in perfect shape and had been properly removed and stored for almost 25 years. It was nothing special except it WAS NOT the low flow toilet. It would flush a matchbox car into the city sewer just fine.

Rats, I wish you had sold it to me. As far as I know, people can still buy full-flush toilets in Canada and full-water usage washers and dishwashers in Mexico.

I tried to convince one of my sons to pursue a career as a toilet smuggler, but he became a scientist insteas. Sad, really. ;-)
