A small tip if you ever have to do another one of these. I’ve learned with this toilet, wait and put the toilet seat on last. The reason for this is when you’re going to set the toilet down over the flange bolts you can look down through the 2 holes for the toilet seat and see your flange bolts making it way easier to line those up with the holes of the toilet bowl. Sometimes it can be difficult with these especially with the weight and awkward design of this style toilet.
I am not criticizing you here. Please don’t take it that way. I’m just pointing out some things to help your viewers since your channel is all about helping people with plumbing. You are a plumber, so you most likely know when things feel right, so that was probably a good installation. I am just adding tips for those who are not plumbers. That is a two-piece skirted toilet - not a one-piece toilet. Tools are definitely required. You may have been able to get the tank to where you think it is tight enough with the supplied TOOL using your hands, but a 1/2” deep well socket is what you really need to get it tight enough (china-to-china) for sure. Then, as you mentioned, you need a Philips head screwdriver for the seat. You also need a wrench to tighten the supply line. You also really need to use your beater screwdriver to tap those stupid triangular closet bolt nuts tight through the holes in the side of the skirt - especially since the flange is so low - you need to get those things tight. Just as a tip: connect the supply line to the tank before you attach the tank to the bowl so you can make sure the 7/8” nut is tight enough.

Thanks Man.. Title Changed to reflect Skirted. Yeah I thought it was funny they advertised No Tools Required.
He could have used a wax ring extender. My company will never allow this.
Some plumber smarted off to an engineer and well who got the last laugh. Man engineers
