I just purchased a new Toto Drake II toilet from an online merchant since I couldn't find a local dealer. I inspected the tank and base immediately upon receiving the shipment and found no damage. The toilet was installed by a licensed plumber and a few hours after he left I found water on the floor and discovered a crack in the back wall of the tank. It starts at the top and runs down through a deep impression made by a number stamp. It ends about 2 inches above the bottom. The plumber came back today and said that he has seen new tanks crack when they are filled with cold water for the first time. He believes it is a defect in the tank and that he did not cause the crack by bumping the tank etc. during installation. Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else.
Thanks
