I need to replace a 35 year old toilet. Am thinking of buying a Kohler
Highline from Home Depot. Toilet would need to be elongated, gravity
type and ADA compliant. Toilet would have to deal with bulky stool
which floats. Old toilet can deal with urine but not with floating
solid waste. Is the Highline a good choice? If not can anyone recommend
a good choice?
THanks!

Take a look at the American Standard Cadet line. They work well and are
priced well.

Note: If you want one that works well you need to make sure it has two
things.

1. 2" or larger trap
2. Fully glazed trap (If it does not say the part of the trap you can't
see is like very rough sandpaper.)

Toto is expensive but the best. One flush and everything is gone. Anything
american made is crap.

We installed 3 of those in our last (1998) house. Now we have 3 more in our
new place.
They've always worked well for us and were highly rated.

I'm replacing toilets now and after all the research, I decided on the Toto.
Use the link Doug provided above and I think you'll find the Toto line is
pretty much tops.
I got my Drake versions from www.homeclick.com (free shipping and they have
8-10% off on a pretty regular basis although be prepared to wait about 3-4
weeks to recieve them).

I've gotten one Toto installed and already I know I can move the plunger
from beside the toilet out to the shed.
Another resource you might try is www.terrylove.com as he has a fair number
of customer comments on the site.
Hope this helped.
Cheers,

7/8" wide? 4" long? Six sheets per ball of toilet paper?

These folks have never met my roommate.

I can't speak to the toilet's function but one serious problem I see
from the pictures I found on the web is that you can see the trap. I
replaced a toilet that had a smooth base with one that shows the trap
and it's a PAIN to clean all the ins and outs around the trap and such.
Why can't the base be a nice smooth pedistal?

I installed a Kohler in 2002 and a Am Standard in 2005. Both work well,
but I'd give the AS a slight edge. It seems to have more "oomph" on the
flush.

But you won't go wrong on either. The Kohler uses a tripod
configuration to mount the tank on the bowl, and that makes it much
easier to level it up.

Need more fiber in your diet? Quit eating styrofoam peanuts that arrive with
ebay purchases.
