Hi, I hope the title did not come across the wrong way. I do believe the wisdom here about what brands are preferable. Tomorrow, someone is coming to install a Bradford White heater at my house. However, I'm still having trouble swallowing the cost. I've put in water heaters before, including...

Thanks again for all the help. I vaguely remember this toilet did not sit quite evenly on the floor when I installed it, but plowed ahead without using shims. Apparently, that was a bad idea. I'm not sure I want to mess with shims so I'm just going to let a professional handle it.

Hi, I installed three Toto Drakes in my house a few years ago -- two upstairs and one downstairs. I caulked around the base of the two upstair ones and have had no issues with those. The downstairs one, I just never got around to do the caulking. Well, that toilet seems to get loose...

Oops. I meant Santa Rosa.

I had been considering other toilets, including a Kohler Tabula Rosa at my brother's house that is exceptionally quiet, but the reviews here disparaged the longevity of the valves, among other problems such as the aforementioned bend. So another question: how are valves on Toto toilets better?

Just bought the Toto Drake tank and bowl (plus plastic seat and install bits.) Nice to see the bowl and tank are made in the USA. I'll install it in the downstairs restroom and if it's quiet enough, I'll get two more for upstairs, maybe with the fancy seats that do not slam. I'm coming from...

Hype and hysteria about Toto, or other brands? Anyway, so the Eco Drake should work as well as the Cimarron Class 6? How quiet is the Eco Drake? What about "CEFIONTECT"? Is that worth it? Thanks!

Interesting. Specifically, do the class 6 Kohlers only take Kohler parts? I notice instead of a flapper, there's a column/tube instead. That looks more expensive to replace. Are there no advantages to that design? Toto deserves credit for apparently coming out with a low-flow toilet that...

I'm just about to cancel an order for three Kohler Class 6 toilets from a big brand hardware store because of all the enthusiasm here for Toto toilets. That and the fact that a local store quoted me a price on the Eco Drake for less than the Kohlers. But, to be honest, I'm still unclear on...
