1988 Crane Plumbing toilet

Filmed at the Embassy Suites hotel in Portland, Maine, in my suite. The flush on this was pretty disappointing, and it took 2 flushes for a small strip of TP to get flushed down. Comfy hotel, nonetheless. I personally dedicate this vid to CRANEPlumbing, as that's his favorite toilet brand and this is the first Crane I've filmed.

Really? That's an interesting bit of trivia about yourself. Also, you're welcome :).

The handle looks like for a newer Eljer Patriot. Judging by the flushing performance, I bet that was a 3.5 gallon Crane bowl with an Eljer Patriot 1.5 gallon tank slapped on.

I remember looking inside the tank, and it did have an Eljer tank on it. The hotel was undergoing some renovations around the time I was staying there (they were almost done with the renovations, though), so I think the hotel's owners decided to get 1.6 gpf tanks to conserve water but they wanted to be within their budget so the bowls stayed.

@CRANEPlumbing Yup, this is quite junk but it has a unique flush. This model was made in 1952 and it discontinued in 1988! And this toilet model is a Drexel, not a Crane Radcliffe if you were curious.

is in Portland, oregon

Just needs an adjustment of the water level or flapper replaced.

Is this a Drexel by chance?

[Paulywint]

That toilet looks like cheap toilet to me.

[mrKRW]

Yes, flushing with the handle held down definately makes things better in the short run in this case.
