Toilet bowl Santeri West
A comment
I bought this Santeri West because of the combination of low price and more or less normal appearance for its price category. Disappointments began with unpacking - despite the complete integrity of the factory packaging (I did not check the contents in the store, but I had to), the lid of the tank turned out to be cracked in half, despite the fact that it was in a separate bag made of peppy plastic, and I did not find any signs of impact. I took the toilet out of the store myself (and carefully!), I considered it useless to return it to the seller with a complaint.
I glued the cracked lid with superglue, jammed the hair with cracking putty, and it would have turned out almost imperceptibly if it had not been for the absence of a single fragment, which was not in the bag, which suggests that the lid was banged at the factory.
After installation, at the first flush, it turned out that water flows on the floor between the tank and the body - a factory gasket made of a material similar to polystyrene (and completely unlike rubber or silicone) does not really seal anything. Moreover, its shape raised doubts that it was generally for this model of toilet bowls - when installed through bolt holes, it did not completely block the drain hole, I had to modify it with a knife and reassemble it all with sealant. In addition, this gasket is so thick that even with well-tightened tank mounting bolts, this same tank still wobbles, well, there’s nothing to remove from the gap between the tank and the upper plane of the toilet bowl, where dust, water drops, and probably even drops which is worse. Special thanks to the manufacturer for the kilometer-long bolts, it’s so convenient to twist them for five minutes each, bending into three dooms!
The first days of using the toilet revealed another defect, which was the last straw in the decision to throw it all in the trash - when draining the shit does not sink into it! Absolutely! The tank is fully adjusted, but what about the tank - even just a bucket of water poured into the toilet bowl is not always able to send waste products to the sewers! With a regular drain, it is sometimes impossible to solve the problem even from the third or fourth full tank! In general, Santeri West is wasted money and time. I would recommend it only for public office toilets, where the water spent does not matter, and for a time-consuming installation there is a full-time building maintenance engineer. This toilet is really a “toilet”, both literally and figuratively.
pros
Price, appearance. All fittings, cover and fasteners included. There is no surge, although it is not indicated anywhere.
Minuses
A disgusting drain with which you can only flush urine. The fittings are all ultra-budgetary, it’s good if five years work. In my case, there are problems with the integrity of the parts, despite the packaging.

Toilet bowl "Vorotynsky"
A comment
For the price for which I bought it, it is a very good toilet, but there are two small drawbacks: a two-millimeter groove in the earthenware, in the place where there is always water, why? It is difficult to wash the dirt out of it. In the basic configuration, upon purchase, there was an annular gasket from the sponge rubber under the tank, on it the tank fell back and flowed until a new gasket was installed from ordinary rubber.

= Yours faithfully, Svetlana.

Poor quality fittings
A comment
I am very sorry that I bought such a toilet, I do not advise anyone.
pros
No pluses, one headache.
Minuses
For 4.5 years, you need to change the internal filling for the second time. In addition, the corrugation began to leak at the junction with the canal pipe. One headache, not the toilet.

Santeri, rare muck
A comment
I am writing that people would not get. All these "antibacterial" "anti-splashes" bullshit is complete.
An Italian toilet has been in the apartment for 10 years now, there are no questions, it washes off perfectly, it’s just smart. In the office I decided to buy for cheap and type Italian equipment Santeri.
You give them at least Italian, even American deliver, they’ll still make bullshit on him
Everything turned out as always, we are not so rich that we would buy cheap things.
I explain, I never understood why brushes for cleaning the toilet are always offered next to Santeria. It turned out to be a consumable. Even children’s toilet bowls cannot wash poop.
Feces always remain on the surface, and they must be cleaned off after each trip to the toilet, for the most part.
I am in shock.
There are no complaints to the company, I didn’t buy it here, but I just want to warn people.
pros
White
Minuses
Everything else is minus.

In general, the toilet from Santeri Version is not bad, but there are not well-thought-out points.
A comment
The old toilet stood already from the 80s, we decided to change it. The toilet was liked by the company Santeri (or as it is also called Vorotynsky Sanitary porcelain), model "Version". The installation was done by specialists, managed on 5.

As for the toilet itself, then there was some kind of double opinion. It costs 3000.
pros
The first is positive, this includes the small dimensions of the toilet, its good, smooth and snow-white surface. It is also easy to clean.The drain hole is wide, so that it can clog, you can not worry.
Minuses
As for the negative sides, that was noted here. The drain button is terribly tight, it is not always possible to press it the first time. Condensation forms on the barrel, under the rim of the toilet bowl there is a narrow groove in which dirt constantly accumulates, by the way it is impossible to clean it properly, fingers simply cannot be put in there.

Santeri Victoria - not really
A comment
They made repairs and her husband rebelled to replace the old Soviet toilet. Arriving at the store, Santeri manufacturers opted for a model called Victoria. The manufacturer's warranty was given for 5 years, it looks concise, the service life is already 20 years, made in accordance with GOST. In addition, they said that the equipment was Italian, the toilet was made using European technologies and other words to lure customers.

To the toilet were attached: seat, fittings and fasteners, as well as the product passport. On the seat, the warranty was 2 years.

So, after 5 years, problems began. First, I started to wedge the flush, we decided to fix it and broke the lid, which we still cannot buy, there simply aren’t them on sale. The seat hangs all over, it basically rests on just one fixture. So it turns out in fact, he did not even serve half the declared service life.
pros
pretty
Minuses
terrible quality, everything broke

They bought the Santeri Victoria toilet just 2 months ago and already have chips.
A comment
Having moved to a new building, they began to make repairs, immediately decided that we would purchase everything new. The longest process was the choice of a toilet bowl, we just wanted it to be equipped with an anti-splash system. And as it turned out, not all stores sell such, but still found it - a toilet from Santeri Victoria.

It is white in color, an additional plastic seat with a cover was attached. There are several rubber inserts on the lid, they are needed for more convenient closing of the toilet.

Clean well and water washes completely the inside. There is also a shelf inside the seat, so there is no splash of water. The barrel is large, one button for draining.

A huge minus for us is that just a month later there were chips, it’s scary to think about what will happen next with the toilet. And behind the lid, condensation is constantly collecting, you constantly need to wipe it.
pros
anti-splash, good equipment, water washes well
Minuses
chips appeared, condensation is going
Term of use
several months
