The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power is giving away free water saving toilets. We have to pay for installation.
The office near me is giving a Legend Ecostar. I can't find a company called Legend on the Internet. Is this a good toilet?
If I drive farther to pick up the toilet, they're giving away a Niagara N2210. Is this worth the drive?
It would be hard to do much worse than the toilet I have now--a Kohler, which I think is a good brand but doesn't always flush. Still, I'd hate to end up with something that isn't at least a little better.

your kohler is probably more effecient than any free toilet as they glaze the trap which most manufacturers do not
no such thing as a free lunch -but if you are really desperate for a better flushing toilet look for one with a FLUSHMATE installed-this is a pressurizing device which "ends double flushing " they are powerful

Hi, Some older Kohler low flush toilets have a solid flapper that is controled by a float on the chain. Move the float towards the flapper. The toilet will use more water but it will flush a lot better.Good Luck Woodbutcher
