Does anyone else have this problem with American Standard Champion toilets?

This is the toilet that claims it can flush 2 dozen golf balls. The problem about this toilet is that you have to hold the handle half way downward for the toilet to flush properly. Because if you try pushing the handle all the way down, then only a partial amount of water gets flushed down the toilet, losing a lot of its flushing power. I had a plumber come by to check it, he said that this is how this toilet is made and recommended getting a Toto toilet. Is there really nothing that can be done to fix this?|||All toilets have problems. This one is a chronic problem. Most complaints are that it wastes water which leaks into the bowl past a troublesome seal and is very difficult to fix. And parts are not readily available.


The idea is great, a novel flushing mechanism that can flush a pile of golf balls. When it works right.


Unfortunately, for those of us who just need to flush normal "stuff", a few kinks need to be worked out.


Your plumber may be right.
