You would think that American Standard would do something about the poorflushing toilets they started making when the 1.3 gal rule kicked in. I madethe mistake of buying one of those in a non-standard color, Rhapsody Blue. Idid my whole bathroom in that color. However, I later discovered that the dammtoilet didnot do the job, and the plunger became a necessity. I am almost positive thetoilet isinstalled properly and the line is clear because of another nearby toiletworking fine on the same line. Then I heard American Standard was coming outwith a new lineof toilets to work around the earlier poor design. This model was called the'Champion' and came out in only two colors. I thought it was only a matter oftime before they would come out with my color. Guess again. They haveincreased theircolor line to what is probably the maximum, and Rhapsody Blue is not there.There is currently only one toilet they make in my color, and it's the old styleversion that doesn't cut it. So I'm left holding the plunger because I bought adefective toilet froma company that doesn't back up their products. Sherwin D.

The saying Goes.."if its brown, hold it down". Use the whole tank of water rather than the usual half a tank, to get the job done.
