| May 15, 2019 at 15:38 | comment | added | Ed Beal | I think there are some standards you can compare, I know a few years back by brother purchased a toilet that could flush 35-37 golf balls with 1 flush, he did check it in his yard. I purchased a tall one about a year ago and some were rated on how well they flushed with their water volume, I actually purchased one that did not specify this value but got it because it was 1/2” taller than all the other models and cheaper. It works great 1 flush and everything is gone. Some is name brand a big name may be more expensive and have poor performance I remover a name brand that cost a bunch need 2 fl | |

| May 12, 2019 at 13:25 | comment | added | statueuphemism | @jqing I agree that your edited question is on topic. Your mention of "I’m looking at the $300 range" is what gave me the primary impression that the question was not on topic since the value of money is always fluctuating and relative between markets. It looked as though you were looking for "For $50 more, you get such and such feature". | |

| May 12, 2019 at 12:06 | comment | added | jqning | @statueuphemism I don’t think it is off topic. If someone asked about wood they need for their deck, and said that there were 2x6s that were between $3 and $7 we would tell them about the differences between Select, No. 1, No. 2, PT, etc. As for the other comment, above, I do know about the mattress industry, as I was a retailer back then. That cross reference was inaccurate because the Big 4 S companies (seally, serta, etc) made SLIGHTLY dif versions to avoid antitrust issues. I’m curious to know if toilet manuf do the same. Are these the same models w dif names? | |

I remember many (25 or more) years ago shopping for mattresses and one of the department stores had a computerized cross-reference list of Sealy vs. Serta vs. store brands etc. Not a new problem at all. | |
