Works great. It has sent my plunger into retirement.

Power flush the only way to live.

Purchased after I started seeing pressure-assisted toilets in hotels, and was tired of my kids clogging up the builder-grade toilets that came with the house. Pressure-assist is used by businesses, landlords, restaurants, airlines, anyone who wants to limit service calls for clogged toilets. Bowl is specially constructed to aim a jet right at the bottom discharge outlet, and water is all contained in plastic vessel in the tank. Current model uses WDI EcoFlush, not Sloan Flushmate. Powerful flush sounds like an airplane toilet. Installed 3 of them -- kids haven't clogged one yet!Don't like that they switched the innards from Sloan Flushmate to WDI Ecoflush in 2016? Flushmate now sells an easy-to-install retrofit kit (part# M-101526-F31K) to change out the pressure-assist vessel and handle and install original Flushmate parts!

I'm not sure what a "soft" toilet, but hey, if toilets can be soft, I'm sure this one gets five stars. But to the topic: My old toilet had been a problem child for years - I cleaned the sewer pipe head, roto-rooted the line, spent hundreds on enzymes and other cleaners, removed hard water deposits from the toilet and sewer line - and it kept stopping up. This toilet is totally functional. Works every time. Efficient. Saves water. I wish I'd bought one years ago.

I waited two months before posting a review. My initial thoughts were negative, months later I still have a negative sentiment. My plumbers first response was "this is an ugly toilet". My wife said, "it looks cheap". My kids said, "can we buy another new toilet". My niece said, "OMG, that thing scared me."This toilet is loud. Listen to me, it's loud as hell. It has changed the way we live. You MUST close doors to avoid waking people at night. You cannot be on a conference call without your call picking it up the toilet flushing in the background when the bathroom door is open. It is too loud for a home.The sound is close to the sound of a tiger roaring, a rocket taking off, or a muscle car with loud exhaust pipes. Every time I flush it, I wonder how in the hell did I end up with this. In fact, a flush inspired me to write this review now.It works better than my old toilet but I don't get a good flush 100% of the time. Even though it sounds aggressive, it does not completely rid the bowl of waste every flush.I am chalking this up as a loss. I cannot wait to replace them (I mistakenly bought two). My research failed me here. I am telling you now, move on. Do not buy this thing, you will regret it. Others have accepted the fact that they paid the price for the toilet plus install and just have gotten used to the problem. I have not, I would have been more satisfied taping my money to a firework and watching it burn in the sky. This is one of my worst purchases.UPDATE: 11/21/20I kept my brother’s kids overnight and these loud toilets were a big problem for them. My 4 year old niece ran out of the bathroom screaming when she flushed this thing for the first time. I got up in the middle of the night to use the rest room and woke my one year old up after flushing the toilet. That cost me an hour of sleep. I hate these toilets. I’m downgrading and hope Amazon one day allows negative stars. Looking forward to replacing these things.

Easy to install, even for someone who is not a handyman; the flush sound is a bit alarming at first but we're getting adjusted to it; it is a very quick flush and fill which means after the initial flush it goes silent. We have yet to put it through the rigors of our family flushing needs, but thus far it seems like a good investment.

I called Standard before I bought this. They said people install commercial toilets in residencies all the time. So I ordered this one. We had it in and the old one out in 20 minutes. It flushes like a rocket taking off. There's no more worry about stuff jamming up the toilet. This was installed in a residence on a city water main. It runs at about 60 psi pressure. The toilet takes a minimum of 25 psi to work.When you take your old toilet out, turn off the water, flush it, then use a sponge to get the remaining water out of it. No need to take the tank off the top. Just take the nuts off the bolts and lift the whole thing out. The bolts which should be 6 inches apart. I found out by looking at the specs for this toilet that the bolt holes are 6 inches apart. That's standard for commercial and residencies. You'll need 11 inches of wall space from the middle of you toilet mainline to the sewer. It says 12 inches in the specs but that'll leave a 2 inch space between the tank and the wall. I put a wedge on the wall behind the tank to make sure that it would not wobble, given the extra space and knowing that kids get crazy sometimes in the bathroom.Edit: I used the 3-4 inch wax ring in connecting this toilet to the drain hole in the floor. I surrounded that with putty. This works perfect just using the standard toilet wax ring with this pressure-assisted toilet.I'm still thrilled that I bought this: the thing has not clogged once, whereas the perfectly-good, regular toilet was clogging 2 times a week.
