My current toilet is a wall mount, back drain (vs floor drain). Is this the right toilet for my needs? If so, why does it have caps on the bottom ? for added stability, floor mount? Thanks Diane

Yes, we had a back drain and this was the right toilet... I think the caps are for access to the screws that secure it to the floor because it is still going to be attached to the floor even though it is also attached to the back. The one we replaced also had these caps on the bottom. However, that is the extent of my plumbing knowledge..someone else installed it for me.... all I knew was that my choices were very limited because of the way the drain is in the wall instead of the floor in our condo building... Good luck!

You are correct. The design uses the existing toilet seat. New bolts are included that are long enough to reach through the elevated portion and the old toilet seat. It works pretty well.

Yes it does, that's what it is designed for. I woudn't flush anything that you would not normalyflush down a toilet. This is the second one that I have installed I have one in the house I live in now and am building a new house and have installed it there also.

When you say your toilet flexes, do you mean your wall flexes? If that's the case, my wall does not. I have 2 2x4's surrounding the metal frame and it's solid as a rock. Is your toilet flush against the wall?

Good Day...this unit is incredibly stable. The only function of the bar across the back is lateral stability between the left & right sides. The gray foot piece also adds to the forward-to-back/back-to-forward stability. Our parents continue to use the Windsor, now for convenience rather than necessity. This unit is very easy to move away from the toilet for cleaning and storage. This unit is done "right", highly recommended.

The toilet has a low water level because it uses "wash down" technology. The solution is to get a toilet with the old style "siphon" technology.The siphon type toilet flushes slightly less efficiently because it has a narrower trap way but for cleanliness it's worth it!

There are indentions in the side so u can raise & lower yourself which would be hard to do if it were all solid plastic all the way around & same size w/out the places to hold. This is a GREAT toilet booster seat & I am about to buy another one to travel with. It's very durable & does not slip on my toilet (or any I've used it on) Some reviews said it does -- but I haven't experienced that. I've had mine 2 to 3 yrs & no damage @ all & I clean it 1-2 times daily w/ Clorox wipes & lysol spray. Hope I answered ur question.. The indentions really help w/ raising & lowering your body

Hi Ruth. Most all new Kohlers are a water saver style toilet, and are designed to deliver two types of flushes. First is the quick flush for urine, and that means you push down then quickly release the handle. Less water is used so there is a water savings over emptying the tank. Second flush type is for solids, and you simply hold down on the handle until the flush is complete. All the water in the tank is used, but the newer tanks are smaller, so less water is used compared to the toilets of the 50's and 60's. It's all about water savings. No one thinks to tell you, eh? Good luck on the flush from now on. ...Jeff...

When I installed two of these toilets in my home, I noticed that and commented on it in my Amazon review. Mine always flush everything with one flush, but I do have to clean my toilets more frequently now. You have bought a toilet that uses less water because of conservation. So I just keep a brush and cleaner beside my toilet and clean as necessary.

I went on line and looked under images, I never drilled a hole/pit in the floor, resistance against the bottom of the sink and floor, (pointy end down), seem to keep it in place, I took a level to it, I did a 'trial' fit first thinking I would go back and add the 'beauty' ring/floor cap but haven't , its been three months, and it has worked well, good luck

We mounted this on the left side next to our toilet. I would not recommend installing it vertically. The mounting brackets are fantastic. My husband is a large man and it is VERY secure. We have bracket mounted into a stud and the right one into just drywall and it is extremely sturdy.

I have this unit and I've been very pleased. While I don't have long hair, it seems to be just fine. I'd make sure that you have cover over your drain and not leave it wide open. You definitely want to follow all instructions if you use this for the toilet and sink too.

I returned the item because its finish didn't match my other bathroom fixture finish. But all ball joint mount design should allow you to move up/down and sideways. Remember the ball joint is a pivot point, all movement is limited especially sideways more than up/down. Hope this helps.

I got this faucet hoping that I had picked the one that mounts to the tub, as it is very confusing...my contractor installed this inside my claw-foot tub just fine. So, no worries, it's the right one. :) Tub mounting, not wall mounting. :)

This particular item rests on the bowl of the toilet. It is not designed to be bolted to the toilet. If you could flip the picture to visualize the full bottom you would see that there is a recessed area that sits on the toilet. Then there is a raised area that is positioned just inside the toilet bowl. It has small rubber pads that make it not slide around as you sit down on it. There are 2 recessed hand grips (on either side) to allow you to pick the riser up for easy cleaning of all areas. They are not for holding on to while on the seat. If the person is not truly steady on their feet, I would recommend finding a stabilizing hand rail to help. This particular item rests on the bowl of the toilet.
