The American Standard 2071.016 is a stylish and versatile toilet that combines efficiency with modern design, making it a popular choice for homeowners and builders alike. This particular model stands out for its exceptional functionality and user comfort, along with its sleek and contemporary appearance.

One of the key features of the American Standard 2071.016 is its high efficiency. It is designed to utilize only 1.6 gallons of water per flush, which is a significant reduction compared to older models. This water-saving capability not only helps the environment but also results in lower water bills for homeowners, making it an economically and ecologically sound choice.

The toilet incorporates an innovative flushing system known as the “Siphon Jet” technology. This powerful yet quiet flushing mechanism ensures that waste is removed effectively and efficiently, reducing the risk of clogs and ensuring that the toilet operates smoothly with minimal maintenance.

This keeps the toilet cleaner for longer periods and makes maintenance a breeze.

Another characteristic that sets the American Standard 2071.016 apart is its elongated bowl design. The elongated shape provides added comfort for users compared to traditional round bowls. This design offers enhanced seating space, making it a more comfortable option for individuals of all ages. The height of the toilet is also noteworthy; it is designed to meet ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) standards, making it accessible for people with mobility challenges.

The toilet's overall aesthetic also deserves mention. With its smooth lines and modern finish, the American Standard 2071.016 fits seamlessly into any contemporary bathroom décor. Available in a variety of colors, it offers versatility for different design preferences.

In summary, the American Standard 2071.016 is a toilet that excels in various areas, including efficiency, comfort, and design.
