should i go for this 3 footer or the 6 footer for a toilet?

The 3 foot will be plenty to get any obstruction out of the toilet and into the main sewer line that is much larger than the diameter of the toilet passageway. I say the 3 foot is fine and much easier to clean up after usage!

I got the six footer, and I prefer it. I have not seen the 3 foot size, and don't know the difference. So it actually depends on you, I guess they both work the same way, the difference may just be the length. Good luck!

I would go for the 6 footer,put it this way the 6 footer can go where the 3 footer go and more.

For a normal toilet the 3 ft seems long enough. I would suspect most clogs are within that 3 ft.

If I remember right, there may be a taller version that might work. The one that I have is only 5" tall, so the 6.5" would clearly be too high, alsthough the other two dimensions would work fine.

I'd get the 18ft so you can have some overhang and to make sure you don't get anything in the pool that you don't want in there.

It is slightly more than 24" deep, and close to 29" high. Most important, it is designed for a 10" rough-in, meaning the center of the sewer pipe is 10" from the wall. 12" is standard in the USA, so you want this toilet only if your sewer pipe location is closer to the wall than normal. Without taking up your existing toilet, you can measure to the wall from the bolts that hold the toilet to the floor. There should be one on each side, measure both and they should be the same.One answer here says the seat height is only 10". That must be for a special kid-size toilet - this one is normal height, not the taller "handicap" height. It is slightly more than 24" deep, and close to 29" high.

I'm 5'2" and I got the 9". It's perfect for me. Didn't think of measuring the toilet.

my dad is a 6 footer... yeah he has been using it with good feedback.. i dont know your case as a 6-4 if that is big difference

I recommend the 6 ft bar if you're not lifting metric tonnes. If you have the room and need to lift a lot more, go for the 7!

I know what your saying you can go two way with that. You can get out your toy soldiers and play Battleship. If you lay one out across the hole you may have to poke it with a Sh.. stick. I will say this you'll have a good toilet it should come with a warning do not flush while seated. I've had few that could hold up to it. You'll know without waiting if it clear, you know "will it will it", when it's flushed it flushed. Go with the gloss no cling-ons!

I got the 3inch which is pretty sturdy. It is very heavy and should be handled carefully, but I have had no trouble.

My husband is 6 foot tall, but uses the cushion because of his bad hip. So I guess it really depends on how cushy you need it. I am 5'3 myself and would probably just order the 4." He does like the cushion and we take it where he has to sit in low seats, theaters, etc. that don't have much height or padding. So, if you have really low seats you sit in and are using the cushion to add extra height for sitting and or more cushy on the tushy then maybe order the 6" one. I don't know, really is lifestyle and how much cushion you need?

We just had this installed last week in a home we bought out of town. My husband is 6ft; he was there when the plumber installed it, and used it a couple of times before he came home. He says it was "a good way up" above him, says he's sure that it would accommodate a 6'4" person or better. Hope this helps!

If you are looking for a higher toilet we also bought a toilevator. Toilet needs to be removed and toilevator installed under. It is about 4".

If you're 200 pounds or more and six feet tall, I would recommend squatting and letting your butt touch the seat. If you just squat above the toilet, you better balance yourself well. You could easily fall in any direction. Better safe than sorry.

Toilets generally have 2 heights... the shorter which u usually find in homes, and the slighly higher like you often find in commercial places, or handicapped stalls. This is the taller of the two.... it's about 1.5" higher to the rim than the other. If installing for someone getting "older", 50's, 60's... then the taller one is often appreciated.

I would go with the 58" just so you know you have enough room. I BARELY could get it to work and my width was not much over 58"

We have an average height toilet and the 9" size works great. We plan to get a taller toilet, be cause I do am short and the 9" will work great for it too. This has been a fantastic product and definitely has helped the situation. Doesn't take long for your body to adjust to this squatting position, just feels more natural and keeps things moving....on!

Yes, the construction of the toilet does not matter. Be sure you buy an elongated toilet. I accidentally bought a smaller one. The box at Lowe's said it was elongated. Had it installed before I found out it was a "smaller" elongated toilet. Didn't know such a toilet existed. It works well enough, so I have kept it.
