Score: 88/100Rankings
The Fluidmaster 502P21 PerforMAX is a universal, adjustable 2-inch toilet flapper designed to resolve weak flushes, running toilets, and water waste in toilets with 1.28, 1.6, or 3.5+ GPF ratings. It features a dial-adjustable mechanism for customizing flush volume, Microban antimicrobial protection, and a solid frame to prevent twisting during operation. It is best suited for homeowners with most 2-inch flush valve toilets experiencing weak flushes, running toilets, double flushes, or high water use.
The Korky 3060BP is a universal 3-inch toilet flapper designed for high-efficiency toilets, featuring durable red rubber resistant to harsh water conditions. Its main trade-off is the need for manual adjustment of the vent band to match OEM water levels. It is best suited for owners of post-2005 HET toilets with 3-inch flush valves.
