20 Modern Bathrooms With Wall-Mounted Toilets
Give your bathroom a modern neat appeal with the wall mount toilet.
One trend that is becoming popular in bathroom designs is the use of wall-mounted toilets. For sure you have seen it in many modern bathrooms and renders and I know you will agree with me that it really looks nice and neat. Having one could alleviate the appeal of your bathroom especially if you are really aiming to achieve a modern minimalist look. A wall mount toilet is also ideal for small spaces since it doesn’t use floor space. But before you buy one, make sure that you look into different stores to check various models. Try to test if the toilet will look good in your bathroom, feel good when used and works really well.
We have to take note that it isn’t just the looks that matter when choosing a bathroom feature. Its function and usability are even more important. We have to make sure that it will work in the bathroom. To help you decide, we have here the pros and cons of using a wall mounted toilet.
Pros
- 1. Looks beautiful. Because of its clean lines, it provides the bathroom an appealing look. It turns your space into a stylish room that could complement with the modern design of the rest of your home.
- 2. Clean appeal. Aside from its neat lines, it looks really clean because the water outlets and other aspects of the toilet are concealed. So if you think that a floor-mounted toilet is an eyesore, you won’t have that problem with a wall mounted toilet. Also, it is easier to clean when the toilet is elevated from the floor.
- 3. Takes minimal space. Since it is mounted to the wall, it will only need a minimal amount of space. It doesn’t take up a floor space like the usual toilets that most homes have. This will also allow you to install your toilet in any space as long as it is near a water source.
Cons
- 1. Cost. One major downside of this type of toilet is its cost. It is indeed more expensive than the conventional toilet. Aside from spending much for the toilet, you also need to pay for its installation since not everyone is knowledgeable on how to install a wall mounted toilet.
- 2. Repairs. There is a possibility that the toilet will become loose over time because of the pressure exerted on it. Because of this, you would need the services of a qualified plumber who can fix it.
- 3. Leakage. Although we are not saying that the wall mount toilet will leak, there is more possibility for leaking in this type of toilet compared to the floor mounted ones. And if this happens, you would need to spend for repairs again.
