Toilets, like any other plumbing equipment, are purchased for a sufficiently long period, so you should carefully consider its choice and purchase. If a quality product is purchased, it will be durable and will retain its original appearance for a long time and please the eye. Before starting a direct review of the models of our ranking of the best toilet bowls of 2019, we decided to give the key parameters of these products and tell how they affect the usability of plumbing.
Summary of the rating:
What do you pay attention to when buying a toilet?
According to the installation technology, all models are divided into three large groups - floor, mounted and mortise structures. Most often it is the first type, and modern products are quite simple in terms of installation, installation work can be performed by almost anyone. By design dimensions are standard or compact. The latter type of toilet is best suited for rooms that do not differ in large area.
If we consider the products in terms of mounting the tank, then they are separate or monolithic, when the tank and the toilet bowl are a single unit, however, such models weigh quite a lot, which makes their installation difficult. Designs with a separate cistern are the most popular, in addition, the cistern can be placed either on a special shelf of the toilet itself or in a suspended state - depending on the model.
The shape of the bowl also plays an important role in terms of the choice of toilet. The classic form is a dish-shaped one - the design has a horizontal platform, however, it is problematic to find such models on sale today, since they are practically not available. Many more constructions are equipped with a funnel shape, where the walls are almost vertical. An intermediate product is a visor design, where the slope is not sharp, but rather smooth - this allows for maximum hygiene.
Toilet bowls can be made of various materials. One of the most universal is sanitary ware. Such models are distinguished by good hygiene and a long service life - about 30-40 years. However, faience is porous, therefore, it will absorb contaminants, bacteria and unpleasant odors. Recently, he was replaced by porcelain. With all other similar characteristics, it has less porosity, due to which the service life is increased to 50-60 years. On sale you can find metal toilets made of cast iron or stainless steel, structures made of plastic, natural or artificial stone.
When compiling our rating of the best toilet bowls, we considered not only the above parameters, but also the price-quality ratio of the model, user reviews and professional plumbers, and so on. We hope that the information we collect will help you choose the most suitable design.
