Yes, you read the title correctly. Our new toilet is a hybrid toilet. What that actually means I can only guess. In our old toilet we could do number 1 and number 2 so that must not be what they mean with hybrid.

Instead I think it is because it uses both water and vacuum to flush. Just as a toilet in a commercial airplane. Though the vacuum is not so… Empty(? or may strong is a better word ;-)) as in the airplanes.

So when it flushes there is a “squirl-whomp” sound. And whatever you did is gone. I wish it was that easy when you made a mistake… “squirl-whomp” and whatever mistake I did is gone (though I rarely make mistakes ;-)).
