True

and are in general better.

Not true IMO except for areas where water is *very* limited.

i'd like to know the pros and cons if anyone has any experience with them
both.

Pro:

1) Uses a lot less water and somewhat less energy.

2) They are expensive so they can be used as status symbols by the
conspicuous consumption crowd.

Cons:

1) You pay *a lot* for the water/energy you save. I doubt if the
savings will come anywhere near covering the additional purchase
costs.

2) The seal on the door is the weak point.
