I have the fluidmaster valves already...

...the push button itself looks tacky and plasticky and although easier
for DS to use than the handle that was there previously I just don't
like the way that it looks or feels.

I love the light press action of Ken's "guest bog" but it's
against the
UKHA charter to have something simple and mechanical when you can have
something complex and electronic ... Especially when electronics and
water mix so well!
