Affordable wall hung toilets that aren't Toto

“I am looking to purchase some new appliances for my bathroom, as I just moved into my new house. I have kinda narrowed it down to Toto, Kohler, and Mansfield (I am USA based). Has anyone purchased from these brands before? If so any recs on which is the best/overall quality?”source ↗

“im already up to $1k which seems pretty ridiculous for trim. Has anyone seen similar trim from other companies? Or does Schulter kinda corner the market on these things? Or maybe someone knows how to get them cheaper from Schulter?”source ↗
