Kohler Cimarron Toilet Series Key Features

• Two-piece construction

  All the toilets in this line are made using a two-piece construction. That makes them very easy to ship and move around once they get to you. This also helps make them easier to install also because you are only moving half the toilet at a time.

• Comfortable seat height

  Kohler has designed these toilets to be the same height as a kitchen chair. Even tall people can sit on and use them comfortably. Once the seat is added the toilet seat height is 17 ½ inches.

• AquaPiston flush technology

  These toilets use what Kohler calls their Class Five flushing technology which includes their own design AquaPiston flushing system. It does a great job of cleaning a toilet bowl completely each time because it floods the bowl fast from several directions.

• Water saving technology

  All the toilets in Kohler’s Cimarron series meet EPA Water Sense requirements because they use 1.6 gallons or less per flush. The flush rates on the toilets in this line range from as high as 1.6 gallons per flush to as low as 1.28 gallons per flush.

• Large assortment of colors

  The toilets in the Kohler Cimarron line are available in many different colors. Here are a total of seven different color choices in all. Examples of these colors are White, Almond and Ice™ Grey.

• Durable construction

  Toilets in the Cimarron line are built to last. This is due to the sturdy and smooth vitreous china that they are made with. It is a surface that lasts a long time and is very easy to keep clean.

• Readily available replacement parts

Our Final Thoughts on the Kohler Cimarron Series Toilets

It should be obvious through these Kohler Cimarron toilet reviews that this is a very good quality toilet line. These are not high-end toilets but they work great and are affordable. They also go well in a very wide variety of different bathroom settings thanks to their simplistic styling.

The inner workings of these toilets are better than most in their class. The AquaPiston flushing system does a great job of cleaning all solid matter out of the bowl too. Their two-piece design makes them easy to move and install also.

There are some improvements that can be made with them too. They are probably not toilets you want to put in your kids’ bathroom because of their high seating. Kohler should also think about including a seat in the package and making the flush handle a little sturdier.

Overall we think this is a very good and affordable toilet line that will leave most people satisfied with their purchase.
