Inspired by Paul's sister Anne who replaced her bathroom fixtures recently, we decided to start doing the same. So first to go was the toilet downstairs. It was a Crane with very poor flushing power...probably dates from the early days of reduced volume flushers which weren't engineered so well.
We chose to go with a Kohler Cimarron Comfort Height toilet. "Designed to have the sitting height of a standard chair....[it] features Class Five flushing technology that delivers extraordinary bulk flushing power." Because our downstairs bathroom is small (we live in a very small house), we went with the rounded front.
Kohler is an interesting company. Located in (where else) Kohler Wisconsin, it is a family owned business with revenues approaching $3 billion. If you ever have the chance to visit there (as we did) take the Kohler factory tour. It is intense...almost 3 hours...you get to see just about everything they do there (such as making sand cast metal objects). It is the best factory tour we have ever been on. They take you right onto the factory floors!
Well, in any case, our downstairs bathroom should now be ready (with the Class Five flushing technology) to accommodate the flushing needs of our guests!
