    My toilet was caught in a drive-by and, while the toilet itself was not hit, the instructions were riddled with bullet holes and rendered useless. So thankful to have this video.

    Great video, helped out a ton. Got it done in 30 mins, if not less. For anyone concerned about using caulk, refer to 1:14

    It's just me and my kids here and I'm disabled and was so sure I would have to wait months for someone to help me but today I got tired of it and decided I'm putting it in. I opened the box and my instructions (that were inside of a Ziploc bag) got soaked from it being outside the day it rained. I found this video so helpful considering I forgot how to install one! Thank you!

    Excellent presentation, easy to follow. Just watched Home Depot DIY Toilet Install live, they never stopped running their mouths and acting like they were a TV sitcom. You are professional and provide easy to follow instructions. Emanuel Hairston & Ron George detract from doing a DIY project and use up too much time. I'm sure they can be more helpful doing something else besides video.

      I'm about to do it myself! I've done so many "manly" tasks like replace sinks, install flooring, fix pipes, etc. And I'm about as feminine as you can get. Dresses, make-up, jewelry, hair done every time I step outside my house. The stereotype of the "butch woman" doing things like this is so outdated.

      It’s pretty simple I would recommend using a rubber wax ring like a danco rubber wax ring if you feel you won’t get the bolts to like up first try so you can reseat it without having to purchase a new wax ring. Also using the plastic washer on the bottom of the flange part will help keep the bolts in place which should help lining them up. And go easy on the tightness enough so it doesn’t move side to side but it’s porcelain so be careful or you can crack it.

    It depends on if you need to remove the old toilet.
    It takes longer then you think, especially with a small bathroom space. Good luck removing and replacing a toilet in less, then an hour.

    The water saver toilets do not save you on your water bill. I bought one. It looked nice installed in my bathroom that I remodeled. The only problem is when you flush the toilet make sure you are ready to flush it again. I hate my toilet. It is an American Standard and not worth a dime . I wish I had my old toilet back. It would save me a ton of money on my water bill!
