I've seen the toilet in its own room before. I've seen jack-and-jill bathrooms before. The combination plus the door placement is, well

I'm aware of that. Just can't say I've seen a tall toilet bowl like that before. That house is in rural Illinois.

Specific year and model would be rather difficult to pin down.

Hell yeah, that's plenty good for me. Thank you! My friend has a tiny toilet in his house he wants to replace so I'm going to present that as an option. His shitter is basically kid sized because the woman who built the house was <5ft tall.

Yeah. That's why they make padded rear end booster toilet seats. I have a bad back, I like a tall toilet. Man, they have some fancy shitters on that website Deteriorata linked. E: Sluice juice  CRUSTY MINGE fucked around with this message at 16:49 on Jan 5, 2023 |

When I had my house built I was very specific on putting in adult toilets with elongated bowls.

I dunno, I'd kinda like to have a weird (to modern standards) old toilet. Some of them are pretty cheap. Something to stuff into a half or 3/4th bath and subject guests to manipulating. I mean, if you're building new and want something to go with an old clawfoot tub, an old style shitter would be nice.

Old looking sure but not a literal toilet from that era with probably no water trap and who knows what other problems. I don't think an old toilet could keep with my modern diet of curry and espresso.

Yeah, you're probably right about the trap. I think the problem with a recreation would be that someone would cheap out and you wind up with molded plastic cladding around the bowl instead.

Anne Whateley posted:There are a ton of modern taller toilets. Search for "chair height" and get a new American Standard. You don't need to deal with sourcing a 1920s toilet You've got to be careful though, modern standard rough in for a toilet is 12", and it looks like that 1938 Kohler is a 10" rough in, and the 1908 Trenton is 14" 10" and 14" rough in toilets are still available, just not as common as the standard 12".

I had to replace an old Eljer toilet with the crazy overflow tube built into the tank porcelain when my dad got cancer and needed a walker. He loved the taller toilet instead of the 4 inch thick seat adapter he had for his other shorter toilet.

Yeah the seat adapter is ok for something temporary like recovering from surgery, but they're annoying to clean and just generally unpleasant as a regular toilet seat. Every assistive device you'll find for use in a bathroom is made of the same ugly plastic and gray rubber feet and looking at hideous poo poo all the time really gets old.
