Is this toilet ADA compliant?

Yes. At 17 inches with the seat, it meets the chair-height standard used for ADA compliance, which suits older or taller users.

Does it fit a standard 12-inch rough-in?

Yes, it is built for a 12-inch rough-in, the most common spacing in US homes. Measure from the finished wall to the closet bolts before ordering.

What is included in the box?

The toilet, tank, slow-close seat, wax ring, bolts and mounting hardware are all included, so you do not need a separate install kit.

How does it compare with a dual-flush toilet?

It uses a single 1.28 GPF flush, so it saves water versus older 1.6 GPF models but gives you no lower-volume option for liquid waste the way a dual-flush does.

Is the Cadet hard to clean?

The glazed bowl and rim wash help, but the two-piece tank-to-bowl seam and bolt caps need regular attention that a one-piece toilet would not.

Does it come in white?

This listing is the bone finish, a warm off-white. American Standard makes the Cadet in other colors, so check the finish before you buy if you need pure white.

What reviewers say

Owners generally find the Cadet a solid, easy-to-install toilet with a comfortable height and a strong rim wash. Complaints center on flush power for solid waste and on the two-piece design's cleaning and wobble over time.

What people mention

Flush powerMixedSome owners say the 1.28 GPF flush handles most loads but occasionally needs a second flush.
Chair heightPraisedBuyers like the taller seating for comfort, especially older users and anyone with knee trouble.
InstallationPraisedThe included wax ring, bolts and hardware make the swap from an old toilet straightforward.
CleaningCriticisedThe two-piece seam and exposed bolts are called out as places that collect dirt and need extra scrubbing.
Bowl cleanlinessPraisedThe PowerWash rim and EverClean surface are said to keep staining down between cleanings.
SeatPraisedThe included slow-close antimicrobial seat is described as a quiet, welcome extra rather than a cheap throw-in.
