1. A flush toilet having a toilet main unit cleaned by flush water, comprising:
a reservoir tank for storing therein flush water to be supplied to the toilet main unit, the reservoir tank having a discharge port for discharging flush water therethrough; a bowl portion having a bowl-shaped waste-receiving surface and a rim section located in an upper peripheral region thereof, the rim section having an inward-facing surface; a drainage passage having an inlet connected to a lower region of the bowl portion to expel waste therethrough by means of siphon action; a rim water spouting portion provided in the rim section at a position corresponding to a lateral region of the bowl portion, to spout flush water frontward in such a manner as to cause the flush water to swirl in one direction along the inward-facing surface of the rim section so as to clean the bowl portion; a jet water spouting portion for spouting flush water toward the inlet of the drainage passage; a rim water guide passage for guiding flush water to the rim water spouting portion; a jet water guide passage for guiding flush water to the jet water spouting portion; and a flow dividing chamber for receiving an inflow of flush water from the discharge port of the reservoir tank, and dividing and distributing the flush water to the rim water guide passage and the jet water guide passage; wherein the flow diving chamber is formed at a position offset on one side as viewed from a front side; and the flow dividing chamber, the rim water guide passage and the rim water spouting portion are formed approximately along a same straight line.
