A toilet bowl with a corner cistern

Many owners of small toilets or combined bathroom with bath understand that for convenience and to create space, it is necessary to choose compact items. A toilet with a corner cistern will help to increase the free space, as well as give the interior of the room originality.

• The main advantage of the corner toilet is the compactness of this item. It occupies only one corner of the room and thus provides room for a sink, bidet or washing machine.
• The original design of such a toilet is a great addition to the modern interior.
• Corner toilet bowl bowls are in great demand due to the economical water consumption and retention of unpleasant odors.
• The bowl allows you to avoid splashing water when flushing.

The toilet with a corner cistern has almost no disadvantages. The only disadvantage of plate toilets, because because of the shape of the water stays on the shelf and over time, a deposit is formed. This problem can be easily solved if after each use of the toilet bowl to clean the shelf with a brush.

The toilets of this type are designed for floor installation, so three indicators are taken into account - height, width and depth. On average, the height of the corner toilet is from 75 to 85 cm. The standard depth has similar dimensions to the height, is in the range from 70 to 75 cm. The width of the toilet bowl is much less than the height and depth and reaches 40 to 45 cm.

A very important indicator when choosing a toilet bowl is its weight. For some reason, many people believe that the corner toilet, thanks to its small size, weighs a little. But this opinion is mistaken. Of course, the triangular shape helps to save space, but it does not apply to the mass of the product. Models of this type of toilet have a standard weight, which ranges from 35 to 50 kg. Sometimes there is even a toilet with a corner cistern, which weighs 60 kg.

The toilet bowl with a corner cistern does not have many modifications, because its design prevents it, but still buyers can choose this sanitary product, guided by several parameters.

All models of this type of toilet bowl are divided into two groups: with seats and without them. The first group costs accordingly more expensive. When choosing a toilet bowl with a seat the best solution (due to hygiene and durability) is duroplast seat with microlift.

Toilets with a corner cistern can have different connections for communications. You can buy models with a classic bottom connection or look for products with a side connection. The toilet of this type is installed only in the corner, so the bottom supply will be more convenient.

When choosing a toilet with a corner cistern, you should pay attention to such parameters:

• high quality of the product;
• The presence of a diversified connection of the device to water and sewage;
• affordable cost of the product;
• the reputation of the manufacturer.

Buyers always choose toilets from well-known manufacturers, which enjoy well-deserved popularity. It is worth remembering that the toilet bowl is bought for long-term use, so you should not save money on it.

Today, many manufacturers offer quality, stylish and practical toilet bowls with a corner cistern in the Russian market.

Among European manufacturers of sanitary equipment, it is worth noting Jacob Delafon (France), Geberit (Switzerland), Hatria (Italy), Grohe and Duravit (Germany). They specialize in the production of shorter and longer models. Among the presented range, models with electronic drain and microlift are in great demand, although they are more expensive.

The most expensive toilet bowl brand is the American company Ideal Standard and the Swiss manufacturer Laufen. They produce sanitary products in a classical and avant-garde style.

The toilet bowls from Japanese companies, such as Toto and Sumato, are famous for their originality. They emphasize the electronics, equip toilets with water heating, music and so on. Accordingly, their products are more expensive, so they buy much less often.

Due to the different colors and forms of bowls with a corner cistern, each customer can create a unique interior design.

Basically, manufacturers use white faience in the manufacture of toilet bowls. Of course, white sanitary ware is in harmony with light tones, but if the interior is dominated by dark shades, white can create disharmony, although skilled designers this method will help to create a game of contrasts.

Designers are advised to start the repair with the selection of the toilet bowl, and then be guided by its color when choosing a bathroom or sink. Many manufacturers offer stylish colored toilets, which will give the interior of the room uniqueness. For example, the Italian brand Style Lux, the Russian company "Kirov Ceramics" and "Oskol ceramics" and some Chinese manufacturers specialize in the production of colored toilets, but there are very few models with a corner cistern among the range of the toilet bowl. To create an interior in the style of high-tech or techno will suit the polished steel toilets, which are offered by the famous Swedish brand Ifo.

Prices for corner toilets are very different. They depend on the brand, material, color and shape. Basically, the toilet with a corner cistern can be purchased from 6 thousand to 30 thousand rubles. For example, a corner toilet from the French brand Jacob Delafon will cost 22 thousand rubles, because the company uses only high-quality materials. And the German manufacturer Ideal Standart offers to buy a similar model for 30 thousand rubles. A budget option is the WC with a corner cistern from Vitra. For only 10 thousand rubles you can buy a product made of quality faience and with a beautiful design.

Usually all communications in bathrooms and toilets are placed in the center of the wall, so the installation of the corner toilet has some difficulties.

It is necessary to disguise all the pipes to create an attractive interior. First, you should make decorative boxes, which can be hidden under the tile in the wall and under the floor.

To connect the sewer, you will need to use additional rings, as well as tapping. Without special skills it is impossible to do this. It is better to invite an experienced plumber for this work. A specialist will help in choosing the optimal model of corner toilet exactly for your bathroom, taking into account all the nuances of installation.

Toilets with a corner cistern have already been evaluated by many users, who have found both positive and negative aspects. The main advantage of the corner model is the economy of space and neat appearance. Many people like the additional features of expensive models (built-in bidet, microlifts lift the lid, etc.).
