We're thinking about replacing one of our 1970's era commodes in one
of our bathrooms. We have 3 commodes in the house and will probably
replace all of them eventually. Each commode is of the older (6
gallon?) flush type.

Years ago I was told to hang on to the older commodes because the
newer ones didn't flush well and were prone to a lot of noise.

How do the new commodes sold today work? We are looking to save
water, even though just two adults live in the house.

Also, are the newer commodes quite? I don't think I would accept a
commode that made a lot of flush noise.

Any advice or recommendations would be appreciated.



If you really want to save water, consider the following refrain:

In days of old,
When knights were bold,
Before toilets were invented,
They dumped their load,
Beside the road,
And went their way contented.
