Hi everyone. Back in October '09, I posted asking for advice on Toto toilets. We ended up getting the Dalton (with round rather than elongated bowl). Just wanted to post back to say that we are...

As you might remember, Terry, we were thinking of the Soiree, too. Maybe, in the future, we will move the Dalton to our upstairs half-bath and get a Soiree for this bathroom. For now, though, we...

Thanks, Ian. :)

That's good information. Thanks, Terry.

Hi Everyone. We finally decided on the Dalton, and are very happy with it. We've had it a few weeks now, and no problems whatsoever. We also really like the height. I want to thank everyone who...

We just had the Dalton installed yesterday--round bowl, ADA height. We would have preferred the Promenade, but--like you--we couldn't afford it at the moment. We've had the Dalton only one day, but...

Really? What's "crap" about it? Seriously.

We currently have a basic Temptrol valve and trim fittings in our bathroom. I would like to upgrade it to the Temptrol Deluxe--but just change the trim and keep the old valve. Will this work? Can...

I'm guessing the new showroom would be at the Boston Design Center:

They don't have TOTO listed yet, as far as I can see, but give them a call.

You don't really...

Just received my new issue of NaturalHome magazine. There's an interview in this issue with Megan Lehtonen, president of GreenPlumbersUSA.

Of course, as soon as I post this, I discover (finally) that there is a polished nickel option for the Toto Drake lever.

Still need to know about spacing from wall, though. :)

Just saw this. Thanks for the feedback. :)

We have to order the toilet TODAY. If somebody could get back to me quickly, I would SO appreciate it.

First question: Does Toto offer finish options in toilet levers? We're deciding between...

Thanks, Terry. :)

One more question: Is it possible to switch out the lever for another Toto design?

We were going to go with either the Promenade or the Drake II, but toilet+seat+installation would run us over $700. Too expensive for us right now. So we thought we'd get the Dalton, and when we...

Excellent!

You know what HGTV is missing?

A plumbing show. :)

Personally, I would not use anything with bleach in it to clean my toilets. It's very bad for the environment.

Got it. Clears that up for me, thank you. For some reason, I thought that some Totos had a 3" trapway.

Thanks. My concern about 1.28 v. 1.6 is because I think I read somewhere on the forum--I think it was HJ who stated it (but not sure)--that the 1.28 doesn't always work as well in old houses.

Okay, I found the update spec sheet. Apparently, it is the same as Terry's.

One more thing: I notice that the trapway on this toilet is only...

I thought we had finally decided to purchase the Promenade, but one last trip to the bath store convinced my husband that he prefers the Drake II (formerly the Gwyneth?). Doing research on it has...

Thank you for your helpful comments. I didn't realize that the tile would have to be torn out to replace the valve. I guess that's what my plumber meant when he said that I'd have to buy a new...

Actually, I wanted to replace the whole thing--valve and trim.

So, just to be sure I understand:

I can use a different Temptrol trim style/valve and won't have to replace it with the exact...

Thanks, HJ. Interesting. When I showed my plumber the set up, he said that I would have to go with the same system for replacement. Or perhaps I misunderstood him. We have an old bathroom that...

We currently have this Temptrol system (Model S-96-2) in our bath but it is quite worn and we would like to replace it in the course of our bath update:
