Toilets with higher seat levels are increasingly popular, especially in homes
built to age with their owners. Kohler now makes its "Comfort Height" toilets in
the latest designer colors.
Pictured here is the "Archer" in a smoky brownish gray color the manufacturer
calls "cashmere". The two-piece toilet features a robust 1.4 gallon flushing
system. The extra large trap (2-1/2") combines with a 3-1/4" flush valve creates
a powerful gravity fed water flow.
The toilet starts at about $350 with the premium colors selling for about
$100 more. Kohler recommends three of its toilet seats for this elongated bowl model.
Unfortunately, the only seat that comes in designer colors is the basic $81 model. A
couple of heated bidet seats ($900 to $1,600) that fit the toilet are available only in white and
tan.
The toilet conforms with ADA standards for people with disabilities.
