"" PROS: Easy to Install,Works Great OTHER THOUGHTS:   I purchased a TOTO Drake ADA toilet several years ago from a different supplier. When I decided to get a second one I found Nat. Bldr. Supp. on line and was the best price. Another was close but this commpany seemed better to me. I am happy with the service received, had a problem which they fixed quicky without any hasle at all. Best customer service I have ever seen!! Since this is my second TOTO Drake ADA toilet, you can tell that I was very satisfied with the first one. After 4 years, the flapper assembly is starting to leak a little, when I look in the tank, the water level drops about an inch in 12 hours. This is minor and I can get a new flapper under the warantee. I think my son is going to get a toilet like this, but not ADA. He helped me install this one and was very impressed by the quality and the flushing action. Date Reviewed: 11/30/2011 5:23:47 PM Overall Rating:   Ease of Install: Flush Rating:

"" PROS: Easy to Install,Great Design,Functional,Works Great CONS: large volume of non recyclable shipping waste OTHER THOUGHTS:   Great toilet, but their shipping uses non recyclable peanuts that are then foamed, so all cardboard as well as peanuts have to be carted to the landfill. That's a VERY large volume! Unacceptable in this day and age. I've been in retail most of my life and have seen good and bad packaging. If they can't find a more acceptable way to securely ship their product, they need to hire someone who can figure it out. It's absolutely possible. I won't be ordering anything else from NBS until I hear they have changed their ways. Date Reviewed: 10/12/2011 11:14:45 AM Overall Rating:   Ease of Install: Flush Rating:

"None" REVIEW:   I have two of these and still have yet to experience a single clog! Even on the first day when we decided to dump half a roll of toliet paper in (for fun) and it had no problem clearing it in a single flush. It probably will take the whole roll, but I'm not sure where my plunger is anymore, haven't seen it in nearly 4 years. Also, it's a VERY quiet and quick flush. Literally, it's over in 2 seconds, but without the sound of jet engines and water spraying all over the place, like the pressure-assist toilets out there.

"None" REVIEW:   I am partially disabled and had a tough time negotiating toilets that ranged from 13 1/2 inch to 15 inch . I hated raised toilet devices beause of their apperance and non-hygiene. I ordered 5 Toto Drake Max height toilets and replaced all of the existing toilets in my house, as well as at a beach house. At the risk of sounding anal, I LOVE my new toilets...they look good, they flush super and I an negotiated them with ease. Installation was extremely easy for me....I called my pumbers who did them all 5 in 3 hours! I also favor the soft-close seats.

"None" REVIEW:   I have been VERY disappointed with the 2 Drake toilets we bought. We purchased them on a recommendation from someone because they were aware of our problems with clogged toilets. We have 4 children and we averaged 2 or 3 clogs each week before buying these toilets. We bought these because they had the most powerful flush and enlarged drainage, to try to decrease the clogs. We clog with waste , not with paper. Yes, we now do clog less, on average only once every 7-10 days, but in the past it was easy to plunge the toilet free of waste, these toilets are a NIGHTMARE to plunge. Because of the shape / contour of the bottom of the toilet, it is incredibly difficult to get a seal with the plunger and I now spend literally 10 times the time trying to plunge and I often have to plunge for several days in a row to clear waste when it clogs. I called customer service and asked if they could recommend a plunger that works......they were no help at all. It was a very bad purchase for my family.

When I first flushed, I thought that something was wrong because the flush took all of 3 seconds to complete, however after checking everything, I found that this was correct and the flush was strong enough to take care of business.

Always flushes, never clogs, quiet, powerful, super. Also, I have only 11-1/2 rough and it went in very nicely with room to spare. Great product, thanks to all members of this list for helping me decide on this toilet. I had a little trouble on the install because it seemed like a lot of tension required to get the tank to sit on the bowl. I was fearful of bearing down on the screws, but once I did, all was great. No problems once I had the guts to put the wrench to it. Flushed in Fresno. Date Reviewed: 8/30/2007 Overall Rating:   Ease of Install: Flush Rating:

"None" REVIEW:   We needed an ADA toilet on short notice for a family member with rheumatoid arthritis, so I let the local plumbing company talk me into a Kohler Cimarron because it was in stock. What a mistake! I knew from other reviews that the bowl wash might not be ideal, but this was impossible! I'm not willing to clean after every use. Yuck. Turns out the plumbing company was able to get me a Drake within 24 hours, and did when I insisted. Had to pay for installation twice as well as the non-discounted price of the Toto, so this was an expensive mistake, but so worth it. The Drake is great, everything that the Kohler isn't. It flushes everything on the first flush, no installation problems, and stays as clean as our old water-hogs did, which is to say that it does require cleaning, but not too often. I will be installing Totos in all the bathrooms of our house. One tip for others who might have handicapped persons in their home: the flush action on all of the new low-flow toilets is stiff, too hard for someone with rheumatoid arthritis. We started with a foot pedal ($30.), which worked well but was still too hard on her knee. We then added a wireless automatic flusher from a third party supplier ($175.), which solved the problem wonderfully. If you have small kids, this might also work for you. Auto-flushing works great and keeps things fresh. Date Reviewed: 11/17/2007 Overall Rating:   Ease of Install: Flush Rating:

"None" REVIEW:   Installed the ADA one and it was quite eas, had trouble with it rocking a little but that was the floor. I installed this yesterday and am still tighting the tank a little at a time. I am being careful cause I did crack a tank some years ago. I realize that I am squeezing down on a soft rubber gasket to get to the 3 touch points, it just doesn't feel right. It flushes beautiful but it's first attempt at removing soild waste failed. It stopped up but was easily cleared with a plunger. This is not odd for me as I have stopped up commerical toilets. Being 6'3 inch and 250 lbs. has it's drawbacks, this being one of them. I installed it in a small bathroom and it is a monster. The white is striking with a black seat.
