Fluidmaster 698 Universal Premium Toilet Tank Lever In Brushed Nickel, Contemporary Toilet Handle With Adjustable Arm

Super modern look, fit and finish Really flexible and adjustable Great price/value Easy to install My only quibbles: The exterior mount/base is plastic (but the handle is metal) The handle “snaps” on, but not with the sturdiness you’d expect. It hasn’t fallen off yet but feels like it could if you flush at the wrong angle. I’ll update the post if that starts happening…

I bought and installed two of these on identical toilets. Somehow worked fine on one but caused the other to not keep lid open due to how much this handle sticks out. Check for this issue before installing it -- one or both parts of your toilet lid might not stay up. I had to replace one of them with a different model, but also from Fluidmaster because they design very good flush levers.

UPDATE: I bought the oil rubbed bronze version for my parents’ bathroom which has oil bronze metal accents. This flusher went well with their theme. It was an easy install, and I’m pleased to report that the actual lever is solid metal and feels really durable. Definitely an improvement over my plastic handle that came with the toilet. I did a bunch of DIY projects in our tiny bathroom that included adding brushed nickel hardware. This was a perfect complement. It was super easy to install and adaptable to any toilet. The mechanism for the actual flush feels so much more smooth. I didn’t realize how junky the previous handle’s flush action felt and sounded. The handle itself made a bunch of noise when pressed. This one makes no noise. Where this loses a star is the handle on the outside comes in two pieces and they don’t line up perfectly. They are both square so it’s obvious when up a little close. I doubt people will be paying close attention so I can live with it. Besides that, I love the look!

This product was very easy to install and works perfect with my American Standard toilet, which has an angle where the handle is on the left front. This product is very adjustable and made it easy to line up the arm perfectly with the flapper valve chain, which I’m sure will put less stress on the arm. The handle insert also has a plastic sleeve which helped make it fit very securely and handle doesn’t have a lot of play and is not loose. Even though the arm is made of plastic it seems very sturdy and when flushing is very smooth and seems very strong.

I replaced all of my existing toilet handles with these modern, stylish, heavy duty, rust proof handles that have outperformed my old ones by a year so far. I highly recommend purchasing these it will give your toilet a new stylish look that won’t break the bank. GO GET YOU ONE!

Easy to install. Works well and can be suited to most installations. ONE BIG CATCH PEOPLE NEED TO BE AWARE OF: The handle sticks out too far on a front installation, causing the seat lid to hit the handle. We have to be very careful opening the lid now. I may have to figure out some way to cushion this. Unfortunately, I did not know about this until post-install and coming back to search for reviews where other people indeed had this same issue. Hopefully my images will catch more peoples' attention beforehand. Overall a great product with one major design flaw.

easy to install! looks modern.

I purchased this toilet handle to replace a worn-out one in my bathroom, but it was a complete letdown due to its clunky appearance. I installed it and used it for a week, hoping its sturdy metal construction would make up for the aesthetics, but the oversized, bulky design looks awkward and cheap, clashing with my modern bathroom decor. The handle feels stiff to flush, requiring extra force, and doesn’t align smoothly with my tank’s flush valve. Compared to other toilet handles I’ve used, this one lacks both style and smooth functionality, making it a frustrating addition. As someone who loves vibrant, organized home solutions (inspired by my passion for colorful and tidy spaces), this handle’s clunky look was a major disappointment. The included mounting screws, not highlighted in the listing, were a small positive for easy installation, but they couldn’t redeem the poor design. I wouldn’t recommend this unless you don’t mind an unattractive, cumbersome handle.

My husband was very disappointed with this product. He struggled to place this toilet handle onto the toilet tank. He thought it would be easy but was not. The lock nut on the handle was hard to come off. He tried just about everything to untighten it. It would not buge any. He ended up going to Canadian Tire to get a new toilet handle and installed it no problem.

1. The handle has a spring return-to-centre mechanism, which was broken on one of the two pieces I bought (returning it). 2. The handle is metal, but the trim plate is plastic. 3. The handle is coated with plastic, and it is blemished *under* the plastic (on both of my ordered items). Not extreme, but certainly noticeable and disappointing. So...get it if you like the look, and hope you get a decent specimen.

Easy to install and love the fact that it is adjustable for our curved tank! Only one that has worked so well. Great quality!

Review without trying the product as im waiting for contractor to show up. I somehow thought the lever was more modern and bigger on picture shown on ad product it is however, pretty funky looking. I will upload pics once installed.

Not a bad product but overall just cheap plastic. Also sticks out too far preventing toilet cover/seat from going all the way back. Will be replacing as soon as I can.
