Yes, I've got one @ home that sucks the water all at once, then water fills the toilet again from top.

The old 5 gallon flushers used to flush straight down.
But the new ones, 3.2 or 1.5 or what ever they have now, tend to "circle" one way or the other to promote the waste moving in a vortex to get it to go down easier.
Now, you "do" have the American Standard, (the one where you "supposively can flush 2 dozen golf balls down), will flush straight down, but, I dont recommend that one, as the tank is on a "rubber donut", and it wobbles all the time, plus that plunger mechanism tends to break a lot...(Yea, you can tell I "have" one, eh?).
I wish you well...

A misconception continues to propagate in popular culture, that the Coriolis effect determines the direction in which bathtubs or toilets drain, such that water always drains in one direction in the Northern Hemisphere, and in the other direction in the Southern Hemisphere. Notably, a Simpsons Episode confirms the myth incorrectly, as do several websites. Strangely, many of these websites incorrectly claim that drain water spins clockwise north of the equator, and counterclockwise south of it, which is reversed from direction of spin that would result from the Coriolis force if it were a determining factor.

The path of the swirl relies upon on the form of the jets interior the rest room. It has no longer something to do with the Coriolis result. The Coriolis result's in simple terms too small to have any result on the flush.

i'm no expert on crappers, but i've notcied a lot of industrial strength (those in commercial buildings) crappers that seem to flush straight down with a lot of pressure.
