Review on OATEY 43401 Set-Rite Toilet Flange Extender 🚽 Kit, 1/4 to 1 inch, Red and Yellow by Jim Plump

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Cheaper than plumbing, safer than wax putty.

The previous owner of the house put the new floors right on top of the old ones so that the toilet flange was 1/2+ below the (new) floor. Looks like someone just bought a thicker wax ring or doubled the wax to make up the difference that eventually caused the toilet to leak. This is a simple and inexpensive solution to raising the flange without having to professionally cut the floor and pipes to raise it to ground level. Set up was fairly easy, although I had to search their YouTube videos for an explanation as the box instructions are very sparse in detail.

Pros
  • Rough plumbing
Cons
  • Some bugs
