Have had numerous problems with an older toilet (Kohler K4590 Portrait, 1998) and am going to replace with either a Drake or Drake II. Plumber came to resolve a clogging issue and recommending replacing toilet due to age. He scoped the line and said there were numerous turns and tie ins, but that there were no blockages. FWIW, the PVC waste line takes one turn before dropping 2 stories down before tying into the line going out.
I'm not sure whether I should get the higher 1.6G Drake or the 1.26G Drake II. This toilet isn't the highest used one in the house (#1 is on main level and is a Toto Clayton 1.6G), but as a remote location, it gets used as the solid waste location. The Drake II with the $100 rebate ends up being about $50 less than the Drake, but I don't want to end up buying another problem. I have a AS Cadet 3 in the other upstairs bath which has performed well, but I've read Terry's post about the AS quality issues, so I'm going with the Toto. Thanks in advance for advice
