But -- keep in mind some of the "round" toilets are only suitable for women
to use. They are so small that parts of the male anatomy will contact the
porcelain or the water level if it is high. Very uncomfortable and
unsanitary.

If the room is already 'tiny' be careful with the elongated toilet. They
do stick into the room farther than a standard round model, so be sure
that things like doors open (both the door to the room and to cabinets and
linen closets). If they are already close to the bowl when you open them,
they are likely not to clear the elongated bowl. Also keep in mind that
toilet seats are somewhat more expensive for these, and if the wife likes
to put one of those fuzzy seat covers on the lid, these too are hard to
find for elongated seats.

I'm thinking to replace my standard round two pieces toilet in the
guest bathroom with one piece Briggs elongated toilet.

I don't know anything about this so please bear with me. The spare
bathroom is tiny. When the tile man removed the toilet to install the
tiles, there was a big nasty hole there. I'd like to know if the new
one piece would fit right in that hole.

How do I know for sure it will fit? Do I need to measure from the
center of the hole to the wall (yuck!)? Just don't want to carry that
thing home and it doesn't fit.

Thanks for all your input.
