He already has the Optum Vormax, and so I just was hoping we could help him to get them to flush right, starting with not snagging the chain on the flapper, which seems to be a common complaint.
The Toto you were referencing is not at all comparable to the AS Optum Vormax. AS has ever-clean glossy bowl, 1.28gpf, comes with soft close seat, and has no "under rim" area at all, which is important to me as I live on a small mesa where the water is pumped up, hence low psi. Am also on septic, so it is important to keep water use down.
One valve feeds the rim (or whatever American Standard calls that upper channel) and the other feeds the siphon jet.What does it do if you disable one of the flush valves? Perhaps that Vormax is not maxed out, and more 'vor' is possible.
Yeah, I just looked. These are "Seeds Program Reviews", and identified as such. Basically, HD and the manufacturer give you the product in return for writing an "honest review". They are not precluded from giving you product information, which is usually what people use as "talking points". Not surprisingly, most of these are glowing reviews. People like free stuff, and usually return the favor. But even if one were trying to be completely-honest, the reality is that one tends to be more positive about something when you're not questioning and doubting yourself as to whether this thing was really worth $300. Those emotions -- questioning one's choice -- aren't going to be present and so the review isn't going to subject the product to the same level of scrutiny that a normal one would. Most people aren't inspired to write reviews unless they are either (a) happy and amazed and want to share their joy or (b) extremely pissed off and want to warn others. That's why the histogram of reviews usually skews either towards 1 or towards 5. There will be "inliers", but they are usually fewer on most products.
