Just got 2 in the mail...$165 each...not bad. The vouchers can be used for the actual toilet and essentials, like wax ring, plumbing fittings, and seat. ________________________________ Where is Darwin when you need him?

If you pull the handle up, it gives you a massive flush. It's needed only rarely so it still saves quite a bit of water.
