Vortens Vienna vs Kohler Wellworth Waterguard

No surprise here. The trapway is fully glazed in the Vienna and not at all glazed on the Wellworth. These tests are exactly the reason I dislike these pieces of junk. I mean honestly, this Wellworth was outperformed by a freaking Vortens toilet. C'mon Kohler.

That on the right wellworth is exactly what I have now. Will it flush alot of waste very well? Is it any good?

pretty disappointing how miserably the wellworth failed. the vienna did extremely well especially for a front flusher. not sure what happened with it on the grocery bag and wash cloth test tho.

Called it, Vortens Vienna outperformed the Vintage Wellworth-less that struggle due to the tiny trapway. Keep in mind, not all Kohler and vintage toilets are awesome. There are some bad and good ones so this is the great example for that. Well worth-less: 3/5 💛 Vienna: 4/5 💚

@@thetoiletfrenzy I heard most people say that elongated version performed worse than the round one. The comparison is kinda odd considering the bowl like I mostly suppose they are just the same thing. So yeah, I actually take Vienna over the 1970’s well worth, like even the 1980’s gen is better than this.

The newer toilet did pretty well, and though I like the height of it, I still feel partial to the 1978 Wellworth, mainly because of its color. 🤎🤣

I really like these Wellworths but I'm definitely disappointed in it. Just goes to show you can't always praise something for being"vintage". The Vortens did about how I expected, very similar to the Lamosas in my house.
