Default GOOD toilet that flushes in ONE flush?

Our toilets do not flush very well. Meaning that it may take 2 or more
flushes to really flush the ****. The tanks properly fill and properly
release water, but it seems as though there is just not enough of
water to do the job right.
Obvious jokes aside, are there any toilets that flush very well (other
than commercial style toilets that seem to have vacuum). What is a
characteristic that we should look for? Tank volume?
thanks.



I bought 2 of the new low water volume toilets (Kohler) when I
remodeled. Boy, was I ****ed at the performance! Then I noticed in
Lowes that they sold separate flappers for LV and standard tanks. On a
whim, I replaced the LV flapper with a standard flapper and it made a
big difference. Not quite like the old tanks, but a LOT better than it
came out of the box. One flush now works about 90% of the time versus
about 20% before.
