Member Reviews: Pegasus Cottage Collection 1.28 GPF Flapperless Toilet

I read the reviews here, and thought the worst problem would be the water splashing out the back, which sounded fixable, so I bought one.  At first I too had water on the floor after each flush, but it wasn't coming out the back (which I'd duct taped anyway, just in case).  Turned out it was leaking from the gasket between the tank & bowl, and after tightening the bolts more than I thought I should, the problem was solved.   The worst design problem I think is with the seat.  First, the bolts holding the seat down are much smaller than the holes in the toilet, and so there is too much play with the seat.  A little squirming results in the whole seat sliding over the edge of the bowl. ...

This is the worst toilet ever. I did not need a new toilet, and only bought one to conserve water.The seat on the toilet was loose and tightening it did not help.The seat would tilt sideways and pinch your leg.I had to replace it. The rod that comes out of the water tray does not go far enough in to the slot and on occasion will fall out dumping the water out and the toilet will keep running wasting water.You have to physically remove the top and get the rod back in.If you do not get your paper and waste to the back of the bowl it will not flush it down.You will have to flush a 2nd and 3rd time. I hate this toilet and consider it a total rip off due to such poor design and quality.SShame...

This is by far the worst toilet ever dreamed up by some geek who thought he/she new what they were doing, but failed, badly. The only 2 decent qualities of this product are its appearance and the ease of installation, and that's not saying much. because most toilets are very easy to install. There are major problems with the flush tank, 1) It does not deliver a decent flush no mater what is flushed. There is not enough pressure, period. Due to this the toilet must be flushed two or three times wasting allot and I mean allot of water. 2) whenever the tank is flushed water shoots out the back at the lid. There are two weep/vent holes at top rear of the tank that are not needed. I filled...

Hate it.  It doesnt clean the entire bowl, most of the front remains untouched when flushing. Specialty parts - where am I supposed to get replacement parts?  Home Depot isnt going to carry parts just for this 1 toilet. Clogs often.

  I am a licensed plumber, to get my credentials out of the way.  My husband is handicapped and purchased this toilet because he really is better off with the handicap height.  This is the absolute worst toilet I have ever used.  The installation is no different than any other toilet except perhaps the water supply is a bit forward.  No problem with the thing splashing out or anything like that.  The elongated bowl plus lack of enough water, plus lack of circulating flush action means a filthy bowl.  Period.  I have had to push the toilet paper into "position" in order for it to flush...also what goes along with it.  This was after 5 attempts the last time.  I'm removing it, replacing it...

I wanted to get the most eco-friendly toilet I could afford so chose the Pegasus. I am very disappointed with its lack of performance. It just doesn't flush solids on the first- or sometimes third- go. It has been installed correctly, the problem is with the shape of the bowl in my opinion. Plus it is a very weak flush. Big shame. I have deliberately left Ease of Installation as N/A; it was bulky and heavy nut no more complicated to install than any other toilet. I don't have any other products by this manufacturer. And won't be rushing to buy any, either.

This toilet has a definite design flaw. But I'm not completely sure whether there were also installation problems as well. The installers did not seem to know very much about flaperless toilets. When you 'twist' the handle to dump the reservoir on the Pegasus 1.28, water splashes out of the air intake holes at the top of the back of the tank, runs down the wall and on to the floor. In my case, it only splashed out of the right side, apparently because the installation is not level. The only solution the installer could come up with was to lower the water level in the dump tray. The result is that the toilet flushes with about 1 gallon or less of water, which is not enough to flush much of...

When toilet is flushed, the water tub tips forward dumping water to front bottom of tank. Water then splashes to back of tank, up the back wall of the tank and out the two tank rear lip indentations onto the wall behind the tank and down the outside of the tank onto the floor. Product needs to go back to drawing board to correct tank splash/leak problem.  Retro-fit corrective solution also needs to be created and provided to current owners, if product is to become more than just a pretty throne.

This the worst toilet we have ever owned.  You have to flush it 2 or 3 times to empty it.  You even have to hold down the flush handle to flush it!  The finish started to wear off the bowl and it's impossible to clean. I can't imagine in htis day and age how such a poor quality product came to be offered for sale to the public.

I was completely shocked by all the negative reviews on this toilet.  I have installed 100's of toilets and this one crushes all of them with regards to flapper vs flapperless.   The reason I tried this toilet was to get away from the flapper style because my municipal water supply is loaded with calcium which in very short time causes flappers to fail (calcium builds up around the flappers and causes them to leak and it is expensive to pay for the lost water).  I was reluctant to buy this toilet because I didn't know anything about them but I am glad I bought it and wish that I had bought one for every toilet I had.  (I have rental units).   What is...
