- The Kohler Wellworth Class 5 is the 11th generation of Kohler’s iconic Wellworth model line. The Wellworth was created in 1936 to be a high quality, high performance, and affordable toilet for the masses and it still fits that description to this day. This particular Wellworth was made on June 29th 2012
This video concludes the first round of tests on the Kohler Wellworth Class 5!
Blue Microfiber Cloth: This is the largest but also the softest cloth that I use in my flush tests. It shows a toilets ability to flush a lot of bulk
Red Washcloth: This cloth is medium sized but it’s also more rigid than the blue one. This test shows a toilets ability to pull or push items into the trapway while also still being large enough to block a toilet with a very restrictive trapway
Pink Washcloth: This cloth is the smallest one and it has medium stiffness. This test represents more of a normal use case

I really don't understand the hate on Class Five toilets. When my adult sister was building a custom house back in '17, I recommended her to ask the contractors for three Wellworth toilets, which she did. She says they rarely clog, once a year or less, and they're on hard water. In 2021 my dad and I installed four Highline C5 toilets in the house and to this day we've had zero clogs. The tank parts aren't too great tho, 2 and a half years and we've had some leakage at one of the aquapistons, and three fill valves have failed, on top of that one of the replacement valves we ordered is a screamer. Thankfully that one was installed in the master bathroom because my dad doesn't really hear high frequencies all that well anyway.
8/10.
This is a really good toilet. Performs well, especially considering that it's always water starved.
Make more of these if you can.
RIP Ingeniums.
It really needs a flapper and the siphon jet size of an Ingenium.
What if an ingeniums had a bigger trapway and no restrictions then it would be the best toilet kohler has ever made. That would be very insane. The only cons of ingeniums is that the trapway gets really small at the bottom. So that’s why it doesent peform that well.
I used to have a Ingenium in my house but then it was replaced😞 with a 1.28 gallon American Standard Edgemere. It has better performance but I still prefer the Ingenium.
It’s just like a Kohler highline class five
It would be amazing if you can force it to use a bit more water, it just doesnt have enough water to clear the dye and the foam
Yeah people swap normal flappers into these which makes the flush longer. It just makes them a tiny bit weaker too. Overall tho it’s an improvement
Better than the elongated ones.
Where does it all go? And how do you get the rag back?
Probably there is a bucket under the toilet
Pipe. There is a pipe under the toilet
I'm not surprised it did pretty well. These get a bad rap
That one kind of flushes like a henshaw
Here’s what happened to theses bowl in 2018 so you know Kohler started redesigning them right? because Kohler started updating there products the elongated bowl have the same trapway but guess what the round bowl trapway got redesigned. Question do you prefer the newer rounded bowl or the older round bowl
I’m pretty sure the elongated ones got the redesign too. I prefer elongated toilets but rounds ones usually perform better
Correct the elongated ones are short of redesigned and the elmbrook and lint lites too even the classic ones
hi kdmc when can i exspet my toilet to in thank u!
Overall this round bowl toilet has been good so far. Just so you know if you but the rounded Kohler toilets the trapway will be redesigned for a technical reasons.
I'm curious about this as I saw someone mention it in another video but they didn't talk about the details. I need a sub $200 toilets and the Wellworth round is one I am considering. Can you explain what you mean with the tramway redesign.. and also are you saying any Wellworth round toilets I'd get from Home Depot would be the redesigned ones? Is there a way to tell from the box or anything? Another issue I read about with these was that the tramway was not glazed.. unless that's the redesign you are talking about. Also some people say the bowls get stained/dirty easy compared to other toilets but who knows. Thank you!
It almost clogged with the red rag

Also, which generations of Wellworth are you missing?
I’m missing 1st and 2nd gen but no one has one of those and no one has even filmed one on YT as far as I’m aware so they are super rare. I’m also missing 4th, 5th, and 6th. My very first toilet was actually a 6th gen from 1971 but I was 4 when I got it and didn’t know how to take care of it. So that’s long gone. There are plenty of 4th 5th and 6th gen Wellworths around me tho so I can pick one up pretty much any time. and the 3rd gen Wellworth looks very similar to the 1st and 2nd gen so I assume they probably flushed and preformed the same
