Toilets: The big flush

Reviewed by:
Rosemary Thornton

This one-piece toilet features a 2-1/8" fully-glazed, computer-designed trapway, compared to the standard 1-1/2" trapway. This means that little kids can flush even bigger stuff down the potty -- but at least you'll avoid clogs. Purely for comparison purposes, a 1-1/2" trapway allows a golf ball to pass through, while the 2-1/8" is big enough for a handball. This toilet installs on a standard rough-in of 12" and uses only 1.6 gallons per flush. Price is under $400 (January 2005).
