Choosing a toilet
Over the past couple of weeks, I have greatly increased my knowledge of what characterizes good toilets. We had to replace a toilet, so I did a bunch of web research. There's a surprising amount of detailed information if you google for 'toilet reviews'.
In summary, good toilet models are the Toto Drake and Toto Ultramax. They have a good flush, yet they aren't pressure assisted, so no electricity required. I got a Toto Drake for $340 for the toilet, $40 for materials, and $160 for labor (Canadian dollars). The UltraMax is a couple hundred more.
Here's a video that someone posted of the Toto Drake flushing 16 napkins. In high definition.

You gotta get one of those toilet seats that are cushiony too! And definitely don't get one made of wood because they harbor bacteria. I saw it on "the Doctors" tv show. Gives you but acne which is not very sexy.
If I ever won the lottery I would love to have a gold toilet seat. That would be hella glamorous but I suppose it would'nt be so comfy. It would be rather cold for the backside.
