The ball valves (a rotating ball) instead of a slide does seem to work better. AND it is available with a front flush pedal. I replaced mine a couple of years ago with a new Thetford porcelain bowl one. It came in both the low and high models.
I used to have a low model with the Thetford adapter to make it higher so I bought the high model and it works great.

Thetford makes a couple of different models in porcelain with the front pedal. The cheaper one has a slide valve.
