I noticed this is significant lower (bow height) than most of the standard toilets. Why nobody mentioned it? is this over-worry or real concern here?

I don't see that it's any lower than any other standard toilet. I'm a bathroom remodeler and install a lot of them. No complaints. Are you comparing it to a comfort height toilet, which is higher.

this is definitely one of the shortest "standard" (non-ADA) toilets out there which is exactly why I'm buying it. ADA "comfort height" must have a minimum height and for those of us with short legs, they are incredibly UNcomfortable. there is no standard for standard height toilets- even the Toto standard height toilets are all different, but it's nice because they give you a variety of configurations to choose from. 14.5 inches, baby. never thought I'd get excited about a toilet.. but I'm very happy my feet will no longer be dangling.

Bowl height is 15". With seat it is 16". Doesn't cause a problem for us and we are 60+. If your concerned, they do make chair height toilets.

A standard height toilet like this one is really good if there are small kids who also need to use the toilet since they can reach it better.

I believe you meant Bowl instead of bow. The bowl, as far as I can tell, isn't must different than other toilets. Overall the toilet works great. The "water spot" meaning target for the "stuff" to hit seems smaller but hasn't really been a problem for us.

I'm not sure what you mean by bow height but I had 2 of these toilets installed about a month ago and they are absolutely great.

typical toilet height for adult. i reviewed this a few years ago and the low water flow aspect continues to cause flushing problems and expensive plumber visits.

The flush is not quiet on this toilet. It is not overly noisy either, but is a little louder than a normal toilet.

I think the height of the toilet, this one is chair height and the other is standard height. I went to Lowes.com and compared both toilets

I had a shorter porcelain sealand (think 510) - had to take the 6 inch platform out of my camper.. have not installed this one yet. Hoping I dont have to put it on a platform for it to function properly. This toilet is far too high for a platform.

Yes, it is higher than a regular toilet. Really nice too. Best toilet ever owned. In fact, I own 2.

I'm sure you already got your answer, but I wanted to add that we also have this toilet and Christopher's tip is right on. It does help to hold the handle down a bit for a longer flush for heavier jobs, but I'd definitely call American Standard - perhaps there is something wrong with the internal flush mechanism or water supply - maybe it's not feeding enough water back into the bowl?... Newer toilets do seem to be deeper toward the trap, but seem to have as less water surface area on top part of bowl, that's for sure.

To answer your question it is pretty standard and one of my toilets is also limited in space and its fine.it does not pertrude very far at all.

most toilets are smaller than the toilerator base. we have had ours for three years and are completely satisfied

Since the raised toilet seat elevate 5 inches, this situation is different from sitting at a regular toilet. The opening design of this model might not be suitable to urinate while sitting, but would be ideal when performing #2 activity

I had the Same Problem. I bought a new peep site (G5) and had a local bow show in stall. This could also be your draw length is not correct. I bought this bow off Amazon Because of the great deal. I also purchase all new accessories for the bow prior to buying.The equipment already installed on the bow is a little lack luster. (low end arrow rest, peep site, site, & stabilizer)

My toilet is elongated. It works fine but may be a little steadier with the round toilets. My son uses it fine, alone and never has a problem though. Hope that helps!

I believe it is low by design. You might have to ask a Toto rep for a definitive answer.The wider bowl narrow to a 4 inch section which is where the water sits. In our toilet, there is no water in the wider bowl; the water begins about 3 inches down into the "tube". That means that anything entering the toilet has to hit the bullseye in the water or risk the possibility of leaving residue as it slides in.

The increase in height from standard toilets does make a noticeable difference although I'm only 6 ft. tall. The narrower elongated toilet does help in tight areas. Hope this is helpful.

Yes to both. I have an elongated and higher toilet. The legs will wobble a bit, but, is very sturdy. I've been using mine the last 4 months. Works great.

Seat height is irrelevant. You do NOT want this toilet if its been like the TWO I purchased. There is little power to the flush. There is some floating toilet paper after every flush that it can't seem to suck up. I have to clean this toilet 3X per week because it starts to get a gross growth under the water line. I don't believe that the toilet is made well enough or of good enough materials.

I'm not a plumber, however I understand that slow-flushing toilets are generally related to mineral deposits, which this will not resolve. Also, when it arrived there was a sticky on the container indicating that it is not designed for home use.
