 What is a good toilet for minimizing clogs?
Author: KHFlorida (FL)

Hello. I am looking for new toilets for my home. The previous homeowner installed Glacier Bay toilets. They clog frequently. TMI. I eat healthy and get lots of fiber. This is an exaggeration but when I use the bathroom I poop as much as a horse does.

Totos are among the best gravity flush toilets

I have a customer with a disabled daughter whoe clogs toilets frequently. A few years ago he asked me to install a pressure assisted toilet. I convinced him to install a gravity flush toilet sice the pressure assist mechanism tends to be problematic. I installed a Toto Drake and the clogs contimued. I installed a Kohler Highline Pressure Assist toilet and the clogs stopped.

Oddly enough the Sloan Flushmate pressure assist mechanism in the Kohler has been problem free and I have not had to service the toilet so far.

I have heard good things about Toto but the drain seems small. I was considering the American Standard Champion toilet which has a larger drain size.

If the champion still comes with the dual flapper flush valve I would not purchase it

I don't think American Standard makes any gravity flush toilet that can compare with any Toto.
