Rimless Toilets good or bad ( or ugly lol )

[Stants]

Hi was looking to buy a new close couple toilet ( 2 actually ) and came across rimless ones specifically a Grohe Bau done a bit of research theres not much about but most reviews I've seen are positive was just wondering if anyone has any knowledge on these good or bad best deal ive seen was £ 404 for two plus two grohe toilet roll holders thrown in any ideas ?

Rimless have been around for years.

Pro; No rim to clean, looks neat.
Con; Water can splash up over the rim, probably not with a Grohe, but tended to with the Commercial ones I dealt with.

As long as they wash down properly when flushed carry on. Nothing worse than skid marks left behind paper etc ..then that means a fortune in bog brushes I know as I put a Mickey Mouse designer one into
One of my holiday lets ...never again..it lasted one summer season..uck...in the skip and good riddance

I fitted one last year and my customer loves it , it works a treat, sorry not a grohe but I can find out the manufacturer if needed .

Install one in my bathroom last year. It’s easy to clean, bit mine is on a concealed Cistern and there’s not enough power for the water to flush to the front edge.

@Stants , spoke with my customer today , It was a RAK toilet and cistern , she picked “comfort height” but standard heights are available. She still loves it lol .

How much is a replacement seat? Some are eye watering amounts.

yes thats a good point I,ll look into it but I suppose that's the same for any toilet you buy I know that Grohe do the same pan but with a normal flush....cheers

Just had a look at the the seats £ 65 for both Rak and Grohe but that's assuming they keep supplying them as the model gets old ? I suppose worst case scenario you buy another toilet

Guess that's not too bad as it's your own, some customers wouldn't be happy though and I've seen some for three figures!

Had a rimless toilet fitted and it was garbage. Never ever again. Failed to flush away toilet paper every time. Adjusted for flushing on three occasions with no success. Top quality unit from a swedish manufacturer and no issues with the workmanship but the toilet failed to fulfill the function for which it had been designed. Had it removed and replaced by the good old Rimmed bowl with no issues.

Best to buy that has had the NSF flush test before going on the market
