Pro Toilets

This morning I got out of the shower and stood looking at the handle of my toilet. It recently fell off and I haven't been able to get it back on right, so it now sits a bit crooked and about 1/4 of an inch further out from the tank then it should. It occured to me that I really don't understand why toilets have to be so troublesome. Handles break, they run, they leak, are loud, tank bolts rust and break, hell they even sweat. It just really seems like they could be made a little more reliable. I think a big part of the problem are the components. They are all so cheaply made. Maybe that's just the "consumer" grade of toliets. I suppose I could go ask someone at Home Depot if they carry a 'Pro' or 'ProSumer' grade toilet, but what kind of person needs a 'Pro' grade toilet? That might, umm, carry some implications I may not want to associate myself with. Another issue I have is the noise. Why do they have to be so dam loud when they are running? I can turn on the faucet for the hose outside on full blast and you can hear little more then the water hitting the ground. It seems like since everything is contained in a thick porcelain tank it would be even quieter. Yes, I could go out and buy a really expensive toilet and it would probably be a lot better, but it's kind of ridicolus that I have to spend $600+ on a toilet just to have it work reliably and be quiet. I bought a cheap $130 microwave probably 10 years ago and it's never had a problem. That's a hell of a lot more complex then a toilet - the thing has to generate and shoot around microwaves.
Anyway, here's an interesting sign I found while I was looking for info on toilets. I asked a friend that speaks arabic what is says. He said it says "Wrong Position" and "Right Position". So, let this be a lesson to you:
