Hello everyone! This is my first post...
My wife and I bought a house that needs some updates. Considering our cash reserves are low and my ability to DIY is high, I think I will be spending a lot of time at this site.
I'm looking to replace the 1970s toilet in our master bath; it uses a ton of water and despite all that water, it doesn't fully evacuate the bowl. After a couple days, the bowl and the water in it starts smelling like a zoo. So we are having to clean it frequently meaning we are dumping tons of water and cleaning chemicals into our septic unnecessarily. I considered replacing the internals but the design is old and it sits very low. I think it is time for something entirely new.
It seems that Toto is well regarded on the forum and box store offerings should be avoided. What about ordering a Toto through a box store? I ran a search on Toto's website and the nearest showroom is a 2 hr. round trip from me. I can order a Toto Drake 1.6GF (CST743S01) from HD for $217 and have it delivered to the store for free. I'm wondering if this is a happy compromise?
I'm still deciding between a Drake or a Drake Eco but will save that for another thread. Thanks!
