This was a brand new toilet 4.5 years ago when we bought the house
Up until a few months ago it worked as normal. Over the last couple of months the bowl is less and less full following a flush. What used to be about 1/3 full now barely has any water in the bowl at all. Any ideas?

Check your float, sometimes they get water logged.
Adjust the slider thing up so the tank holds more water. Listen or watch if the flapper is leaking water after the tank shuts off. The problem is somewhere in your tank. Study how it works before you take things apart. |

did the refill tube come out of the overflow?

What I want to know is, does the bowl fill properly, then leak down to the level shown in the OP or does it never fill properly?
