My city (California) gave me nice fat rebate checks for energy efficient washer, dryer, fridge and new HVAC system.

I draw the line at low flush toilets and low-water emission shower heads. You’ll get the old high flow shower-head out of my cold dead hands - most likely my old “regular flush” toilet too.

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.
