i have some very difficult toilet users in my house-very large, lots of food volume, and athletes, with their friends–the toto toilet investment is absolutely a must. we just went through a master bathroom remodel and i was looking at remodeling jobs on various sites, and saw a comment on a beautiful bathroom basically gushing over the toilet, and the response from the person who submitted the picture, gushing back. i had never heard anyone gushing over a toilet before, so i looked into it, especially since we are constantly having issues with our toilets, and started realizing that there is an ever increasing number of toto loyalists. i found the toto ms854114sg-01 for 383.00, or so, delivered, and decided my new bathroom was going to join the ranks of the toto elite. two plus weeks later, and i can say that i like it very much, and my one son, the main offender, used it once, that i know of, and gave it his best shot, and it still functions. i may give an update in a few months, but as of this writing, i think that if this one is still functioning as well as it is now, we are going to replace the other two toilets with totos. you basically spend a little less for some other toilet that you find at a large home improvement store, but in the end it is only a very small amount of money compared with the reliability, and peace of mind from knowing that you don’t have to worry about the basic operation of an object in your home, which we do have to worry about constantly, and are soooo willing to stop worrying about, and do the shopping online to find the best price and pay just a little more for something that actually works like it should.

During a recent home remodel we decided to purchase new toilets for both of our bathrooms. As always I did my research and found that many people suggested this as the one to get however with the price so high I wanted to be very sure before pleading my case to my wife! I spoke to a classmate who has been a professional plumber since high school (25+ years) and as soon as I mentioned the brand he told me it is by far the best unit on the market. After hearing that he uses these toilets at home I decided to bite!

True to what I have read and the response from my friend I have to admit that this is the BEST toilet that we have ever purchased. The units have been installed and used now for a year and we have not had one problem with the operation. So far both my youngest son and grandson have not been able to impeed the unit.

The one piece design is very sleek and unique and has received many good comments from our bathroom visitors. It has a very unique flushing sound which is due to the design of flush and the water saving feature. Finally I opted for the unit with the sanagloss finish which allows the refuse to go down without leaving any traces! I have to admit that there are times some traces can be found but it is very rare! This was part of my plea to my wife and after hearing that it required less cleaning she was sold.

I would recommend you search both high and low for the best price. I finally found these units from a plumbing supply shop in Montana and after I told them I would buy two units they worked me a deal I cound’nt pass up. Basically I got both units with shipping for just over $600.

The units arrived on-time however because of the weight they were sent via freight. Both units were indivually boxed and mounted on a pallet and about two weeks later my friend and plumber came over to professionally install them!

One thing to note is that no additional parts or accessories were needed although you can get a heated seat or automatic seat we just choose the regular seat which is soft close seat, which means the seat will not slam against the porcelain it just slowly closes without any sound. This will cause one problem and that is whenever I travel or use restrooms at other places I tend to just let the seat go (thinking I am at home) of course alerting everyone within ear range of what I just did!

All in all I feel you would be very happy with this purchase at least we are.

I ordered this toilet based on the many positive reviews and so far I have not been disappointed. The only cons are the toilet seat is not as comfortable as flat correctly angled seat. I do like the controlled opening and closing mechanism though. Be warned you cannot use bleach on Sanagloss toilets. It would have been nice to know that upfront. In spite of that I highly recommend this toilet.

I just bought a TOTO Ultramax one piece toilet based on a recommendation from my contractor. We are currently in the midst of a Master Bath remodel and the toilet was installed today. I am not sure that you can Love an inanimate object such as a toilet, but I do. When you have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars having older two piece toilets fixed and constantly rebuilt, you can appreciate the true beauty of great quality and modern design. The TOTO is comfy, and sleek and the flush capacity is great!, all while utilizing less water than the older models. Talk about a powerful flush!!! It also has a Sani-Gloss Finish which means that the interior and exterior are coated with a gloss making it much easier to keep clean and resist stains. I researched pricing thoroughly before buying and found it online (at a different site) for $100 dollars less–including freight shipping! That’s a steal! After seeing the TOTO installed, my husband immediately said to me “you should replace the other toilets in the house” I nodded and smiled. I had already ordered 2 more for our other bathrooms.

I carefully reviewed this toilet by looking at all sorts of reviews online before purchasing it because this is an expensive toilet. I noted a bunch of reviewers professing love for the toilet. I thought these reviewers overstated their opinions, but I now realize I was wrong: This is an outstanding item.

We’ve had it now for about 5 weeks and I am impressed. It definitely saves water and does an effective flushing job. No one in my family has had to flush twice, which is certainly not the case with our older, inefficient toilets. The flushing action is (very) fast and is reasonably quiet. In my opinion, it is quiet enough so that noise is not a concern. Initially I was nonplussed with the seat because it’s sculpted so that it is concave. But after a week or so I believe it’s the most comfortable seat of all our toilets. The SanaGloss aspect seems to work well but because I do not own a similar toilet without SanaGloss, I can’t be totally confident about this opinion. I hired a plumber to install the toilet so I cannot comment on the ease or difficulty of installation.

I guess the highest praise I can offer this item is that I now plan ultimately to replace all my toilets with this toilet. It will take a while for me to do so because these ARE expensive (plus in my area there is another approximate $100 charge by a plumber for installation). But the quality and efficiency of this toilet has given me this goal.
