    What's behind our toilet Ratings?

    Experts at our National Testing and Research Center tested 40 models in toilets to see which ones perform best.
    We look for:
    • Overall score
      Based on solid- and liquid-waste removal, bowl-cleaning at 35 pounds-per-square-inch (psi) water pressure, and noise.
    • Solid waste removal
      The ability to move simulated waste through the bowl and trap.
    • Noise
      Flush quietness without the seat.
    • Bowl cleaning
      How well flushing cleaned the bowl's front and sides.
    • Type
      G is gravity; P is pressure-assist.
    • Gallons per flush
      The amount of water used per flush, in gallons.

    When shopping for a toilet, don't assume that a high price tag assures top performance. Among single- and dual-flush toilets, our top overall scorers were priced about midway in the group. Toilets are flushing away about 30 percent of all residential water in U.S. homes, so it's not surprising that water conservation remains a major issue. If you're looking for information about toilets, Consumer Reports is your best resource. Consumer Reports’ toilet reviews will give you honest buying advice that you can trust.

    Toilets (40)

    All the toilets we tested removed liquid waste superbly. The best add impressive solid-waste performance and capable bowl cleaning while resisting soiling, odor, and drain-line clogs. Many also use less water per flush. Models we recommend offer special strengths, value, or both. All have elongated bowls.

    Toilet buying guide

    A toilet is a toilet, right? Well, no. Options include different heights, bowl shapes, styles, and flushing technologies. The best toilets also save water while still delivering worry-free performance. No need to flush twice to get the job done. No need to pay top dollar either. Among single- and dual-flush models, many of our top overall scorers were priced about midway in the group.
