: I'm experiencing the same dillemma. Saving money in the first place is why I am here. The Toto Drake looks like the best choice to cut costs, uses a g-max system, but it is only available in elongated. I have 4 toilets to replace in a 6 year old house. My neighbor put in a Flushmate toilet, which is wonderful but really loud. I'll end up in divorce after waking up my husband every night.

: : presently looking at toto toilets: ultramax, ultimate & supreme models. i noticed that ultramax has the "g-max" flush system, while the other two have a "power gravity" flush system. does the power gravity system work as well as the g max? (i know ultramax is rated the best, but i'm trying to save a few bucks).

Lisa,
For round front, use the Ultimate. The one-piece design makes it quieter. If you need more flushing power, you can upgrade to the Ultramax flush system. Terry
