Kohler Santa Rosa Comfort Height Review (Updated March ’20)

Upon first setting eyes on the Kohler Santa Rosa Comfort Height, you’ll likely notice immediately that something’s different about it. This is apparent not only through its physical shape, but through its back tank as well. All one piece, the toilet is rather easy to clean. It also comes with a thinner, taller bowl which serves no other purpose than to give it an extra degree of comfort.

The Kohler Santa Rosa Comfort Height primarily took its place on the map through its list of convenient features. While nobody would call it “advanced” by any means, it does a great job at making your life easier without forcing you to pay a premium for doing so. It is marketed as being most suitable to those with mobility issues of any sort, though those without mobility issues can likely still appreciate the Kohler Santa Rosa Comfort Height due to the high amount of convenience it offers its owner. Let’s take a closer look and see if this is the toilet for you.

FLUSHING EFFECTIVENESS

No matter what you’re looking for in a toilet, perhaps the most important thing to consider is whether or not the toilet is able to flush well. The Kohler Santa Rosa Comfort Height may fool some in this regard, being that it doesn’t seem like it has a whole lot of flushing power when looking at its specs. However, despite not being able to move an absurd amount of water at once, it seems to be able to move water efficiently, giving you a great flush without racking up your water bill.

It also places a large degree of emphasis on clearing off the bowl while it flushes. Once again, it does an excellent job in this regard when you consider the actual amount of water moved over any given time (which is actually rather average), making it very efficient in this sense. However, I still had to dock it a point on its effectiveness rating due to the fact that, while efficient, it just doesn’t move as much water as some of the more powerful toilets on the market as of today. Its efficiency; however, is certainly something which should be prized by everyone, no matter what they’re looking for in a toilet.

DURABILITY

It just doesn’t get much better than the Kohler Santa Rosa Comfort Height when it comes down to its ability to retain its initial sleek look and functionality over time. There are some toilets which perform just as well in this regard, though there are many toilets which do not. As such, you can be sure this particular product will give you just what you’re looking for if you’re in the business of coming out with a toilet that won’t need to be replaced for a great deal of time, saving you both money and hassle.

QUALITY

Due to its level of efficiency, as well as its ability to preserve the cleanliness of its inner bow, the Kohler Santa Rosa Comfort Height gets a solid five-star rating on its quality. It performs all of the basic functions you would expect in a modern toilet and even goes a bit further to give you that extra sense of customer satisfaction. It’s especially great when you consider its price. The manufacturer could easily have priced the toilet higher if they so chose to.

DESIGN AND FINISH

Outside of being slightly long and thin, as well as being one single piece, the Kohler Santa Rosa Comfort Height doesn’t exactly look stunning (though it certainly doesn’t look bad either). However, you’ll find it to be easier to clean than nearly any other toilet on the market. As such, it will continue looking like a new toilet ten years down the road. This design also adds a huge degree of convenience, being that all you need to clean your new toilet is a cloth and a minute of your time. This is something we can all appreciate in any product.

WARRANTY

Although I love the Kohler Santa Rosa Comfort Height in every other regard, I don’t love its warranty. Standing at one year in length, you’ll find it to be somewhat below average. When buying a product for over five hundred dollars, this seems a little less than generous. To reap the time-saving qualities of this toilet, you’ll need to be okay with getting a poor warranty.

OVERALL SUMMARY

If you can get past its warranty, you’ll likely love everything this toilet has to offer. In terms of how much time you’ll actually need to spend cleaning it, you may very well find it to be the most convenient toilet on the market. Not only does its flush keep the inside clean, its one-piece status keeps the outside clean as well. As such, you can be sure you’ll be saving tons of time in the future. Its high seat is also a huge plus for adults, as it will boast a higher degree of comfort, especially for those with slight mobility issues which present themselves when transitioning to and from a seated position. No matter which of the above features most appeals to you, the Kohler Santa Rosa Comfort Height may very well be just what you need.
