American Standard Cadet PRO Two-Piece 1.28 gpf/4.8 Lpf Chair Height Elongated Toilet With Matte Black Trip Lever Less Seat - AMS-215AA704

No seat is included. The 215AA704 is a less-seat model, so you order an elongated seat separately. It does ship with color-matched bowl caps and a Matte Black metal trip lever, so those don't need to be sourced.

It is. American Standard states the Cadet PRO meets Americans with Disabilities Act requirements for use and accessibility, and the chair-height bowl measures 17 inches tall including seat. Because the final height depends on the seat you pair with it, there can be slight variation, which matters if you're inspecting to a strict ADA seat-height range.

1.28 gallons per flush (4.8 liters), and it is WaterSense certified, which American Standard describes as using 20 percent less water while performing as well as or better than regular toilets. That 1.28 gpf figure is what jurisdictions with high-efficiency toilet mandates ask for, and it's usually what utility rebate programs are keyed to.

Chair height sits the seat around 17 inches off the floor versus roughly 14 to 15 inches on a standard-height bowl. For multi-family turns, senior housing, and any restroom that has to meet accessibility requirements, chair height is the one to spec. Standard height still makes sense in kids' bathrooms or where you're matching existing fixtures across a building.

The 215AA704 uses the trade-exclusive Cadet PRO tank, which is sold through wholesale channels rather than retail. If you're standardizing a property on Cadet PRO, order the complete combination by the 215AA704.020 part number rather than mixing tanks from retail Cadet models.

The working parts are metal rather than plastic: a metal trip lever and a metal shank fill valve. The bowl and tank are vitreous china. Trip levers and fill valve shanks are the two parts that break first in heavy-use restrooms, so metal on both is the reason this is the trade version rather than the retail one.

The Cadet PRO 215AA704 is an elongated bowl, which projects roughly two inches further from the wall than a round front. In a powder room or a narrow multi-family bathroom where clearance to the opposite wall or vanity is tight, a round-front bowl is the safer choice. Elongated is what ADA-focused and commercial specs typically call for.

It uses American Standard's PowerWash rim, which directs the flush around the bowl to scrub it with every use. For property managers running a large fixture count, that reduces how often staff have to hit the bowl ring, though it does not replace routine cleaning.
