Haven't read the posts at terrylove, but when I installed my Champion I was
unable to fully tighten the tank-to-bowl bolts until I had the weight of a
full tank of water to help compress the rubber donut under the tank. Once
the tank was full, I noticed some minor drips and went back in and fully
tightened everything down. So far, so good (only one week, though...)

At www.terrylove.com, there are numerous reports of leak problems with
the valves and seals on the American Standard Champion models. One
poster said that the Champion flushed too fast, didn't clean the bowl
well, and was very noisy. More than one poster said that they had
returned the Champion to the point of purchase. What has been your
experience?
