Jacuzzi Perfecta High Performance Round Complete Toilet Review




The Jacuzzi Perfecta High Performance Round Complete Toilet is a ADA approved, 17” high toilet that flushes with 1.6-gallons per flush. The Perfecta is for installation on a 12” rough-in and the bowl will extend 27 5/8” out from the wall into the room, the tank top is 30 ½” high X 17” wide and will extend 7 ½” out from the wall weighing in at 83lbs. An exact 12” rough-in allows a ½” space between the tank and the wall. The Jacuzzi Perfecta is only available in white. The toilet features the Jacuzzi “Propulsion” system, which is a gravity flush system utilizing a 2 1/8” fully glazed trapway and a 3” flush valve along with high flow rim jets and siphon jets to provide a high performance flush. The flush on this toilet is actually quite good with the MaP Report giving this toilet a 1,000-grams per flush rating which will certainly retire the plunger from its prominent bathroom storage location. The Jacuzzi Perfecta is a complete hit that comes with toilet, bowl, seat, wax ring, and closet bolts, leaving the only other part you need to buy being a supply line. The Jacuzzi Perfecta has an MSRP of $250 but is routinely selling at Lowe’s as a model # EZ33959 for $193.55 and has a Five-Year Limited Warranty.

The Jacuzzi Perfecta High Performance Round Complete Toilet has gotten fairly good reviews from consumers with slightly lower grades for design and quality. Some users did not like the seat provided with the toilet and when trying to obtain replacement parts found they had to be special ordered with a 5-7 day wait for them to arrive. Also getting bad marks was the closet bolts and wax ring, which many users elected to upgrade to a higher quality by purchasing separately. I would also suggest doing that using a set of 5/16” brass closet bolts and a wax ring that does not have a built in plastic horn. The wax rings with plastic horns have many people thinking that they help prevent leaks with the funnel shaped horn but the reality is they often cause more leaks than they ever prevented. The funnel often interferes with the fit of the outlet horn into the closet flange often causing a leak or, pinching closed obstructing the outlet of the toilet causing clogs to form. Overall people will probably think this is not too bad of a toilet for the lower priced ones available and other than the parts supply problem be relatively satisfied with the Jacuzzi Perfecta.
