Champion 4 Elongated Combination two-piece toilet
The Champion 4 Elongated Combination toilet has an advanced flushing system and innovative features (view larger).
Champion 4 Flushing System
Packed with innovative features, including the industry's largest flush valve and trapway, the Champion 4 produces a fast and powerful flush. It is ideal for busy and/or large households. The Champion will move a mass 70 percent larger than the industry standard. It achieves the highest MaP bulk removal rating--1,000 grams--and will even flush a bucket of golf balls! This means that the Champion 4 toilet will allow you to flush with confidence and never worry about plunging a toilet again.

4-Inch Accelerator Flush Valve
Champion 4 toilets feature a four-inch piston action accelerator flush valve that allows 360 degrees of water to be released into the bowl in less than a second with nothing to impede the flow of the water, thus allowing more water to enter the bowl more quickly for a more powerful and cleaner flush. It pushes water into the bowl three times faster than a standard two-inch flush valve. That's also one-third faster than a 3-1/4-inch flush valve and almost twice as fast as a three-inch flush valve.

2-3/8-Inch Siphon Trapway
The wide-open, fully-glazed 2-3/8-inch trapway is the largest in the industry. It can move a 40-percent-larger mass than a 2-1/8-inch trapway and an almost 70-percent-larger mass than a standard two-inch trapway.

EverClean Surface
This double-coated surface inhibits the growth of stain- and odor-causing bacteria, mold, and mildew on the surface that could cause deterioration or staining. You'll love how the mirror-like EverClean surface is easy to keep clean and stays cleaner longer, even after years of use.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great toilet with re-designed flush valve, July 5, 2010

This review is from: American Standard 2018.214.020 Champion-4 Elongated Combination Two-Piece Toilet, White (Tools & Home Improvement)
I have an original champion toilet which had issues with the flush valve. The champion 4 toilet has a redesigned flush valve that is better built and appears to be a more reliable design. In terms of flush power vs. the old design, it appears to me--to be about the same, possibly slightly less...I wouldn't say it is much less, like the other reviewer mentioned...I would like to see american standard's view of this. Overall I would highly recommend the champion 4 toilet with the new flush valve. There is no better toilet with a better warranty on the market with this kind of gravity flush power at 1.6gallons per flush. Also, the new flush valve is quieter than the old one. The old design had the right idea, but had very poor execution. The new design seems to have great execution. If you have an old champion with the old flush valve, call american standard and they will send to you free the champion 4 flush valve and is a simple install/replace.

1.0 out of 5 stars Shoddy product, April 22, 2009
By 
David J. Kricker "medivac" (Massachusetts, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This product is advertised as capable of a forceful flush due to its design. It delivered that for about a year until the flush valve broke.

The original flush valve has been discontinued, most likely for the reason above. Its replacement generates a flush which is a third as powerful as the original valve.

There is no excuse for this. A flush valve has nowhere near the complexity of, say, a computer or digital camera, yet these products typically last for years without failing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Have 2 of these in my house for 2 years and never have plunged either, August 25, 2010
This review is from: American Standard 2018.214.020 Champion-4 Elongated Combination Two-Piece Toilet, White (Tools & Home Improvement)
I put an enlongated adult height one in 1 bathroom summer of '08 (maybe after some re-dos from previous Champ 4 models??) and liked it so much I put a round regular height in another bathroom 6 mo later. I have never needed to plunge either. I have children, and a wife who is an excellent cook. Both toilets have been put through significant tests. I don't care how many golf balls it can flush, I care what % of a roll of toilet paper it can. There have been a few times where 2 or even 3 flushes have been needed (wait for the bowl to slowly drain first or it will over flow!) but never have I had to plunge. As for install, all I did was follow the instructions carefully and both have worked without issue ever since. It truly is water conservative because 99 times out of 100 only 1 flush is needed (unlike other low-flow toilets).
