hard hitting question!! round or elongated toilet?
i ordered two..elongated.
i think mine only come that way. about 1.5" longer, where it counts for men. (add jokes here - GO!) what's in your home? |
I have round, will replace it with elongated.
|
If I had room, I would get the taller and elongated ones for adult use. I replaced an elongated one once wit a slightly smaller round one that was a water-saver...and regretted it immediately.
|
Elongated. And we went with the comfort height. I was super happy with that choice when I had my hip replacement or I am sore after a long day of yard work.
|
I have found with things like toilets you need to take them for a full test drive before committing.
|
Add a "squatty potty" too! :D
|
I hate round toilets.

Cliff, for a couple hundred bucks more per seat you should go in-wall. Get yourself a Geberit tankless system, they have ones that mount in either 2x4 or 2x6 stud walls, and a Duravit bowl like the Starck 3. This saves about a foot of room in the bathroom and looks cool besides.
The cantilevered bowl can support 880 pounds. You can even get the bidet lid although it's pricey, like $1500. You would need to run new plumbing off the soil stack as there's no longer a hole in the floor or a wax seal. Not a huge deal if you are remodeling. Definitely check it out and I'll think you'll find that the price differential is not that much. |
^^ thats on the table when we remodel.
but that is behind the kitchen remodel..bare minimum. it's a ways off. |
Elongated... no question!!! and geez, it is hard to find a low one now a days. The comfort/taller ones are SO uncomfortable.. No pressure in the right places. Nothing comes out unless I use a step stool thingy.. !
|
unless you're a pygmy or hobbit, I think the only good answer is oval/elongated/extended.

Unless you are 6'4", get the regular height. Elongated is a little more comfortable, but more then anything else, you have a couple more inches of clearance for accidental drips
|
Unless space is an issue (such as in our powder room), oval is the way to go.
|
We just moved into a house with three elongated and two round. The round ones are getting replaced, they are awful.
