I have been having a terrible time trying to get an American standard cadet pro toilet that is not damaged, I should have read this forum before going with American standard. The first two i purchased had pretty large cracks on the tank so they were promptly returned/exchanged. The most recent one I bought has a tiny hairline crack below the bowl. I am quite new to this so I wanted to see if this is not a big deal and its just impossible to get a perfect AS toilet or if I should return this and continue looking for an unblemished one. Its quite minimal and I don't think it will be in contact with water but I dont want it to expand ofcourse. Thank you in advance for your feedback

Larry,
I don't understand your question. You've purchased three units with 100% failure rate. Your cracked toilet will never get better, only worse. I doubt anyone here is going to suggest anything except buying a different brand.
Seven years ago when I was looking to upgrade, this forum recommended Toto and I have been thrilled with several Toto units since then.
