I also have a round bowl version and I have no problems with splash either.

Ron_in_sc, here is a link to my Cadet 3 on youtube. You can see for yourself how well it flushes before you decide on buying it. http://youtube.com/watch?v=hzCGZh7AK2U

By low-end I'm assuming you mean around $100 or less? Well since you have a tiny bathroom go with a round bowl. You may want to consider an American Standard Space Saver, Mansfield Alto, Lamosa, Crane Toilet-to-Go. They're all fair at best but get the job done as long as you don't stuff them...

Make sure you choose wisely if you do decide for a new unit.

Is your toilet a Crane or Universal Rundle toilet? My grandmother has a Crane Atlas model and has the same problem with her toilet. Like you said from 4:00 to 7:00 no water washes the bowl. It's just the design of the toilet (open rim design, not the holes under the rim), but what you could do...

Just my opinion here...go with an AS Cadet 3. They are cheaper than the Champions and still flush as well as a Champion.

AS Cadet 3 I purchased an AS Cadet 3 round front with 12" rough-in from Lowes about a year ago to replace a poorly performing AS Regular Cadet. Surprisingly, coming from a big box store like Lowes, the toilet had no defects and to this day has shown no signs of cracking or leaking...

All I can say is that my neighbor has a Rheem Richmond brand toilet but it's very old...I think dating to the 60s. My guess is that they went out of production long ago.

Well yours might be defective because mine sure doesn't do that. I couldn't be happier with it.

You need to purchase a low-flow flapper. I'm assuming this is just a standard flapper you currently have in the tank.

I have one of those AS Cadet 2001 model toilets. And it's almost impossible for it to remove all the waste without holding the handle down for a 3 gal flush. It's fine for liquids though. So yeah I'm not saving as much water as I could but it's once a day or every other day that it's used for waste.

That's true. I have an American Standard that has the little float on the chain as well. But when you move it down to just above the flapper you defeat the purpose of saving water. You're then using 3 to 3.5 gal even though it flushes better after this.

Thanks. Seeing as how it won't be used too often I think it'll be a safe bet.

Has anyone had expereince with Cranes's "toilet-to-to" model? This toilet was previously owned by Universal Rundle and was known as the Atlas model. A friend of mine was looking for a cheap toilet to go in his work-shop and had his eye on this one. Any advice???
