High level WC

[Bogart]

The gaffer has decreed we should get a high level wc to replace the downstairs one. For a change I actually concur with her that it would look nice.
They seem, like most things, to vary wildly in price. Is there anything I should specifically look for in the specs or any particular make who are good at these?

Sorry I only ever take them out, would look at a matched cistern and pan or something to suggest cistern can be used on all pans coz a straight drop from that height could make for a hell of a flush, maybe a wc/bidet combo😳

Sorry you lost me with the wc/bidet combo.

Was a joke. He meant if the pan wasn’t designed to accept the water velocity from a high level pan, the wc (toilet) could turn into a bidet (bum shower) as the water shot into the pan and up and out.

Stick to branded sanitary ware as below they all seem to have the Victorian type look which may not suit everyone's taste . Kop

I’ve fitted this high level ideal, very nice toilet, if to your taste.

Have a look at Burlington too.
If you’re minted go for a Thomas Crapper, unfortunately the recent quality has dropped off and they really aren’t worth it now.

Victorian sort looks fine to me.

The Ideal looks the sort I am after. The Burlington looks very mind you the aluminium cisterns are a bit pricey, suppose done for weight only. Pity there is nowhere open near me where I can go and look at them.
