did you stop it to get off? or were you simply ejected by
the rotational speed? or RPM?
I Would be most interested to hear more about this device?

Not a problem here having a choice of 3 in our house

You could go for a Japanese type one instead

Have you tried looking on US websites?
Thank you Surfermom

My Daughter lives in Los Gatos CA
She would send one but I would have a problem if it did not fit as there are different types

Ah, I see, what could be called a donut. Are there any serial numbers on the underside of the lid?

If you wish to post a pic of the flush valve, I could check my sources to see if I can find one online?

Re: Amarican Style Toilet

Is it the flush valve that has failed Azure? As a last resort, the plastic membrane inside can be cut from a sheet of acetate to fit, have done that a few times.
