If I ever get a replacement toilet it will be the elongated ones.

That's an EXCELLENT choice!

When our home was built, I insisted on "elongated bowl" toilets for all three
bathrooms. After 14 years, I have appreciated that minor selection criteria.
It's all about the comfort of USING the thing.

With the American butt getting bigger every year, I can't imagine installing a
toilet, new or replacement, without its being an elongated model. They are
simply more comfortable to use.

Caveat: Those that place FORM over function should know that an elongated bowl
toilet significantly reduces the choices one has for a seat/lid/cover. That's
OK with me as there are enough models available of sturdy, functional and
color-coordinated ELONGATED seats/lids/covers for my needs.

Football FANATICS bewa You probably will NOT find a [your favorite sports
team logo]-theme toilet seat/lid/cover for an elongated bowl. Live with it.
The elongated bowl is worth the sigh SACRIFICE!

My toilets do their thing in one flush. They work so well, I may take them
with me if/when I move. Heck, they might even appear in my Will!

They are politically incorrect: They use more water.

I was LUCKY as my house was completed JUST BEFORE the low-flow requirement.

However, I do have trouble sleeping because of the guilt I feel over the water
I am wasting. After all, we all know that every flush of water disappears off
the face of the Earth. Gone forever. It's terrible. I can't stand it...
