Please help! I currently have a Rialto low-profile one piece Kohler toilet and want to change it for a similar with the difference of the adult height (comfort height) but the closest one Kohler has is a left-hand flush! Raphaelle! I'm so frustrated and although I love Kohler's customer service and lifetime warranty on parts would consider going to another manufacturer if I can find another one-piece that would have a similar footprint and need no electricity that a single gal can easily do herself! Anyone? :confused:

Biscuit is needed

Right hand flush, other than THAT San Raphael, which had it to make the flush mechanism easier to manufacture, are only required for a specialized application, and therefore, they are ONLY made for two piece toilets so you can change the tank when you need one. It would be economically unfeasible to design a one piece right had lever, with all the changes necessary, unless you made ALL the toilets in that model right hand, (as was done with that San Raphael).

See Ultramax® II Toilet, Right Hand Trip Lever - 1.28 GPF MS604114CEFRG if you don't need that low of a profile.
MODELS
• MS604114CEFG
With CEFIONTECT ceramic glaze, SS114 SoftClose
seat included (#01, #03, #11, #12)
• MS604114CEFRG
Same as above, with right-hand trip lever (#01)

The description and part number with the R says the lever is on the right. Only available in color #1.

Guess this does not match your low profile desires. Maybe a toilet with the tank in the wall would do it for you.

Would this do it for you as an alternative? https://terrylove.com/forums/showthread.php?57357-Kohler-Touchless-Flushing-Retrofit-K-1954

Where do I begin?!?
I've spent hours on this one, calling Kohler and Toto and both were extremely pleasant to work with on this dilemma…

Want: low profile, one piece, right-hand lever, comfort height (at least 16") replacing a Rialto, right-handed lever in Biscuit - regular height.

Problems I am running into…Kohler does NOT have a replacement comfort height, right-handed lever low profile, one piece with similar footprint. I have been to their website as well as spoken to several of their tech guys and I'm trying to figure out the issue. So I was considering Toto and two models came up:
Supreme II - MS634114CEFG ---has everything but the right-hand flush lever….
UltraMax II - MS604114CEFRG--has a bit of a taller profile…only color is white…
Are there any other suggestions….

... if I can find another one-piece that would have a similar footprint...

Do you mean that you want a low profile, ADA height, right hand lever toilet that is 25" long, with the import being it be as short as possible?, that you do not want to install a toilet that is 27" - 30" long? What about the height or the width?

The touchless module comes with a cover to plug up the lever hole. http://www.us.kohler.com/us/catalog/productDetails.jsp?productNumber=1954

What's wrong with the Raphael? Too long at 30"? http://www.us.kohler.com/webassets/kpna/catalog/pdf/en/1086530_4.pdf

Is the Santa Rosa, ADA, Compact Elongated too tall? http://www.us.kohler.com/webassets/kpna/catalog/pdf/en/1154779_4.pdf

Right hand Kohler toilets: http://www.us.kohler.com/us/search/...obalSearch&fromPage=search&_requestid=6179962

Yep, no 1 piece toilets come with a right hand lever... But if you look at the Kohler spec sheets some have a -RA-0 postfix...

K-3828-RA-0 http://www.us.kohler.com/webassets/kpna/catalog/pdf/en/K-3828-RA_spec.pdf
K-3513-RA http://www.us.kohler.com/webassets/kpna/catalog/pdf/en/1068491_4.pdf
K-3615-RA http://www.us.kohler.com/webassets/kpna/catalog/pdf/en/1142465_4.pdf


The AS Cadet one piece in ADA comes with a lever in the front:

Cadet-3-Ovation-Tall-Height-Elongated-One-Piece-1.28gpf-Toilet

Toto MS854114ELR#01

And yes, I think all toilet manufacturers should cast their tanks so that one can install either a right or left hand lever, and they should provide a plastic cover for the empty hole.
