Re that sagging flush button.

It’s a 2 second fix. Under the lid there is a little white plastic bar with threaded nut. Turn the nut to raise the bar and raise that button.

Is this a non-american thing? I've never seen a toilet in a house without a lever before.

Whoa, two different flush settings? Such a simple change yet I'd never thought of that. Thanks, that was super cool.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

I got one that has a normal handle, but you lift for a half flush and push down for a full one.

I have that exact same Toto toilet tank in the states.

Buttons are more common on dual flush toilets. One button is for a small flush, the other button (or both pressed at once) is a larger flush. These toilets are pretty common in parts of the world where water is in short supply and or expensive.

Lever based dual flush systems also exist, but they’re usually less common. You push for one type of flush and pull for the other.

That said, my folks have old push button toilets from the late 70’s. They’re single flush, and the button is side mounted. The buttons were just cool for the sake of cool, and lots of American plumping supply places still sell new parts for these toilets.

TL;DR: they exist in the US, but you’ll see a lot more out in the dry ass west.

they seem more common in places that are concerned about water usage. they're basically the norm now in Colorado.

Nope. Have this in US. It's nice. My only complaint is that it is quite difficult (but doable) to splice in a kaboom cleaning unit on this model.

Was at a public toilet. Now life is even shorter.

I'm going to get a little bookshelf in the bathroom. I'm going to put that same picture frame right next to the book I have "Things to ponder while taking a shit."

When I have guests over, I will know if they have a satisfactory sense of humor or not.

Me to the picture: Forgive me lass. Imma drop a ten pounder in a five pound hole.
