Default Toilet bowl recommendations

While you're replacing the toilet- pay attention to how high the seat
is. It is easy for a full 'abled' person to sit on a high one-- but
near impossible for someone with the slightest bit of mobility
problems to get up from a low one.


Right. 18" is the recommended height (instead of the legacy 14").

I suspect that any modern toilet would be a dramatic improvement. Toilets
today vary on cosmetic details, not so much on function.
