I purchased two of these toilets from Home Depot (free shipping) based on the high recommendation in Consumer Reports and have not been disappointed. I used them to replace two 1.6 gpf toilets, which were OK, but clogged too often in our household.

The bottom line is that this Kohler low-flow toilet works great. We've had them installed for over two months now and they have performed flawlessly. No clogs, excellent bowl rinsing, fast and quiet. This is a gravity 1.28 gpf toilet that works, and I highly recommend it.

I did my own installation. The problems I encountered during the installation were due to my home, not the toilet, so if your flange is in good shape, installation should be easy. The one thing you might want to check is whether the connector from the wall to the toilet will be long enough. This toilet has a higher seat (Comfort Height as they call it) which makes the distance from the wall to the tank a few inches further if your old toilet is a standard height. I had to replace my connectors with ones that have a longer hose. Also, don't be worried by the fact the bowl says that it is for "1.6 gallons per flush or less." It works with both 1.6 and 1.28 gpf tanks.
