ADA Drake vs Dalton

[eapsystems]

Hi! Help! I'm the happy owner of two ADA Drakes and need one more toilet. I'm living in Panama and I've only been able to find an ADA Dalton. (We shipped our Drakes with our furniture from the States) I'm concerned about the flushing capability as well as noise as it will go in the master bath. How do they compare? Should I bite the bullet and ship another toilet or will the Drake do a comparable job? :confused: Thanks!

The Dalton does very well.

I'm hoping to get more for the Seattle area.
I sold everyone I had.

Is there a difference in the flushing action? different technology or is the price difference more a reflection of a newer/different style?

Drake, Long sweeping bends on the trapway, 3" flush valve, MaP 900 grams
Korky Quietfill, 16.5" high bowl

Dalton, Tighter bends on trapway, 2" flush valve, MaP 650 grams
Standard ballcock. 16.125" high bowl

The Drake edges out the Dalton in clearing the bowl.
The Dartmouth is good like the Drake but with traditional styling.

The Dalton is a good value for the money, better than Cimarron and Champion for what it does.

I bought the Dalton and it does great. Put one in for my sister-in-law and she loves it too. It is quiet too.
