Why does your toilet not flush as hard as it once did?

That is because toilets are now made to conserve water. The tanks hold much less and so they don't flush as well as they used to.

Some newer ones now have a dual flush system to attempt to deal with this issue in a better way: one button provides a "light" flush for "light" loads - like urine only - while the second button provides more water for the heavier jobs.
