Toilet is clogged . Plunging hasn't cleared the clog. Water drains quickly but don't get the gulp that all has flushed. What should I do other than take a sledge hammer to the Jacuzzi toilets and replace them with another brand. This has happened before and my husband finally got plunging to work but no success so far this time. Help!

Pull the toilet up and look underneath it for a toy that got stuck. Also, look down the waste pipe for a toy that got stuck or for tampons.
Your not supposed to flush tampons down the toilet, because they are super absorbent and get stuck down the pipe, which inhibits waste flow. Especially the tampons with wings, cause they grip on the the side walls like the Dickens. You can rent a drain snake and send it down the waste pipe a few times to clear the clog. Make sure the bathroom vent is on and the windows open, because the smell is most disagreeable.
Alternatively, before going into this invasive procedure-you can go to Ace hardware and buy a bottle of Liquid Fire and pour it down the toilet to see if that clears things up. You can also order Liquid Fire online. This stuff dissolved a python rather quickly that had gotten into the waste pipe and clogged the thing up.
