An integral part of any bathroom is the toilet. Plumbing is usually installed for a long time and, as a rule, during a major overhaul. Therefore, the choice of goods consumers are very responsible. However, the stores offer a wide variety of models. Someone prefers domestic samples, which are distinguished by a budget price, coupled with quality, but not a presentable look. Others choose foreign goods that have a high cost. Still others prefer affordable Chinese plumbing and change it as it fails. This article will consider the Cersanit toilet bowls, reviews of which are somewhat contradictory. The Polish company has quite a lot of experience in the production of sanitary ware, and among the models presented there are samples that inspire confidence in the buyer, as well as those that have the most complaints.
About company
Polish manufacturer "Cersanit" began its activity in the distant90s of the XX century. The main operating lines are now located in Poland, Russia and Ukraine. Fittings and all internal components are produced in Turkey and at the Russian plant "InkoEr", which is located in the Kirov region. All sales in our country are carried out through a network of distributors.
The consumer may not worry if something happens to the purchased "Cersanit" toilet bowl. Reviews show that the manufacturer fully provides warranty support and service.
Even when thinking about the design of the future bathroom, a computer program becomes available to the consumer, where you can foresee all the nuances and clearly see the future model in the interior. The quality of all goods is evidenced by the presence of a multi-stage system for checking the production process and certificates of conformity.
Company range
All toilet bowls of the company are united in a collection. If we consider the official catalog, which is presented by the company in Russia, we can see two compact samples and ten pendant ones. However, there is already a much larger assortment in stores.
The cost can be called quite affordable. The price starts from 9,000 rubles, but this range includes only economy models. Among the hanging samples you can also find an inexpensive toilet bowl. However, only the faience itself will be included in the price, installation will not be taken into account.
For picky buyers, the company can offer more expensive models. They are distinguished by higher quality materials, original technical solutions,design execution of the bowl and the presence of complex fittings.
Reviews of plumbers
Cersanit toilet bowls are quite in demand. Reviews of professional plumbers show that, in general, all models are distinguished by their quality of workmanship and a fairly long service life. However, sometimes one can come across opinions that Polish goods have become less reliable and of good quality. Professionals support their opinion by the fact that the company has moved its main production lines to other countries, and it is those samples that are not made in Poland that are subject to the main criticism.
However, brand engineers assure that all toilets are produced on original production lines and using their own equipment. Quality control is also entrusted to the Polish employees of the company.
Plumbers advise you to especially carefully inspect your favorite model for defects before buying. Cases have been recorded when small cracks were simply smeared with suitable enamel. However, most problems arise already during the operation of the Cersanit toilet bowls. The reviews confirm that the defects do not depend on the chosen model, but nevertheless, samples cheaper than 12,000 rubles more often fail.
Typical problems of Cersanit toilets
Practicing plumbers identify the most typical breakdowns of Polish plumbing. According to statistics, they fail most often:
- trigger mechanism and other parts of armature;
- seat cover when the support pads are pressed through;
- lid is still being installed.
Many users note that the first breakdowns occur after 6-7 years of active operation. However, according to plumbers, this is normal. But problems after six months of using the toilet should be the reason for contacting a service center for diagnostics and possible repairs.
The problem is that warranty service points are not present in every city of the Russian Federation. Even if the service is available, then calling the master at home can be difficult due to the large number of orders.
Cersanit toilets: customer reviews
If you analyze the feedback from users, you can see that the main problems are related to the trigger mechanism of the tank. Among the main complaints are:
- The size of a toilet bowl and a drain tank are incomparable. When water is supplied, the pressure is weak. When draining, not even a funnel is formed, therefore, in order to achieve the desired purity, it is necessary to drain the water 2-3 times.
- If the drain button is pressed slowly, all the way or too sharply, then there is a risk of it falling. The fittings do not completely block the drain, and after water enters the tank, it runs back in a thin stream.
- We often have to change gaskets to prevent leakage. But getting original spare parts is problematic, and the quality is not always high.
- Not always satisfies economical drain. In fact, the amount of water remains the same. Often plumbersthey see the so-called snag when the button inside works in one mode.
Not everyone is satisfied with the design of the inside of the toilet. Budget models do not have an anti-splash system, so there are inconveniences in terms of personal hygiene.
There are also accolades. All models are characterized by impeccable whiteness and clear lines. Care does not require special tools and is not difficult. However, sometimes housewives note that some cleaning powders leave traces on faience. But the disadvantage is compensated by a quiet sound when draining and collecting water.
Cersanit toilet bowls are suitable for consumers who need a solid, high-quality, but inexpensive sample. The company uses time-tested ceramics, and there are no complaints about it. Let the manufacturer cover, fittings and the availability of plastic parts.
Toilet installation
Installation and commissioning of Cersanit toilet bowls are no different from the installation of similar products and are produced according to a single scheme. For convenience, each model is always accompanied by instructions that are designed to help with installation. However, it is worth considering the features of drainage before buying and do not buy a suspended model if a floor drain is expected. The design must be suitable for the sewer system of the dwelling.
To connect you will need:
- corrugation;
- eccentric collar;
- plastic bend.
All elements must be connected using sealed rubber seals. If the cuff is connected to a cast ironsewer pipe, a sanitary sealant should be used. The toilet itself is installed on dowels.
