Am I the only one who has trouble with this toilet? There is close to zero washdown so it gets yucky all the time. The tank fills fine and the toilet rarely clogs, but after several years of suffering, I'm looking for a solution.

Anything that can be adjusted? Did I do something wrong installing it?
 
All toilets since 1992 use 1.6 gallon or less.

Before 1992, it was 3.5 gallons.
I find that using a bowl cleaner about once a week helps on all bowls.

Of the Toto bowls, the Soiree and the Guinevere has the best bowl wash down.
They come with CEFIONTECT and the double cyclone rinse.

This is the worst I've seen. They advertise

G-Max: Quiet, powerful, commercial grade flushing performance

It's quiet, but it's not powerful and I question whether a commercial business would put up with this. There literally is no water flowing from the rim at the back of the bowl during a flush - seems OK at the front.
 
When I went to Canada, there was an Ultramax in the lobby bathroom at the Glacier Hotel.
I also put them in the church I go to, they replaced five gallon Amerian Standard Cadets. They were "very" happy with the Ultramax's.
Many of the commercial bathrooms in the Seattle and Los Angeles area are going to Toto.
I talked to the maintinence at Seatac Airport, and they had the best luck in the bathrooms that had been speced with Toto. He came to me to buy Toto for his home.

It's okay that you don't like yours. I sell all of the brands,
And consistently, the brand that has the most repeat business is the Toto.
I sell American Standard, Caroma, Duravit, Eljer, Gerber, Kohler, Mansfield, St Thomas Creations, Toto, Western.

If may be, that yours is so bad, that you may want to donate it to someone that could use it. I'll take it.

no water flowing from the rim at the back
I've never seen that. Are you sure the rim holes have not closed over?
What is your water like?

I have the MS854114SG-01 in my downstairs bath with CEFIONTECT.
2.5 years and never plugged.
The bowl stays pretty clean for a 1.6
I'm liking mine.

As far as the rim holes go, no I'm not sure they aren't closed. Not an expert here. I'll scrub the rim, look up with a mirror next weekend. Mine is not CEFIONTECT.
