Ron,

I replaced mine years ago with the standard toilets from the Box 
stores.  I think
they are American Standard, and I believe they ran under $100 - say 10 yrs ago.

They work well most of the time, but they due clog often, say at least once a
month.

I know they make some power flush toilets, but I've never messed with them.
Not sure how much they run either.  But a plunger as an accessory for each
toilet, my be a lot cheaper than trying to get one of the power flushers. :)
