Complete guide to making the right online purchase
Choosing the perfect toilet is a decision that is often underestimated but is key to achieving a comfortable, functional, and aesthetically harmonious bathroom. It’s not just about design, but also about efficiency, space, installation, and water savings.
In this article, we guide you step-by-step so you know what to keep in mind before buying a new toilet, and we introduce the main types of sanitary ware, with real examples from leading brands you will find at Merki Market, such as ROCA, Fossil Natura, Nashi, and Unisan.
Types of toilets: which one is right for you?
1. Floor-mounted toilets (classic and compact)
These are the most traditional and versatile models. They are installed directly on the floor and usually include an exposed cistern. Ideal for those looking for a simple, functional, and easy-to-install option.
✔ Recommended example:
🔹 The ROCA The Gap model offers a compact and elegant option for small bathrooms, without compromising on design or comfort.
2. Wall-hung toilets
These toilets are fixed directly to the wall, leaving the floor completely clear. They facilitate cleaning and provide a sense of visual spaciousness, while also adding a modern and sophisticated style.
✔ Recommended example:
🔹 The Fossil Natura Wall-Hung line combines minimalist design, matte finishes, and silent flushing systems.
3. One-piece toilets (monobloc or integrated cistern)
These are characterized by integrating the bowl and the cistern into a single structure, which improves aesthetics and simplifies installation. They usually take up less space and feature a more fluid and modern design.
✔ Recommended example:
🔹 Models like the Nashi Compact Monobloc are ideal for those seeking functionality and design in a single product.
4. Eco-friendly or low-consumption toilets
These models incorporate dual flush or optimized flushing to significantly reduce water consumption. An excellent option for those looking for sustainability without giving up design.
✔ Recommended example:
🔹 The Unisan Advance Eco range offers solutions with 3/6 liter dual flush, with reliable and modern mechanisms.
Keys to choosing the perfect toilet
- Available space: measure the depth and width of the bathroom, and the distance to the drain (standard: 18-23 cm).
- Drain type: can be vertical or horizontal. Avoid unnecessary renovations.
- Seat height: between 40 and 43 cm; there are taller models for elderly people or those with reduced mobility.
- Bathroom style: straight for modern, rounded for classic, or minimalist for pure design.
- Lid closure: always opt for a soft-close system (damped closing).
- Material and finish: standard is vitrified porcelain, but there are variants with antibacterial treatments.
🔧 Practical installation tips
- If you are renovating, consider a wall-hung toilet: it requires a concealed cistern but offers great aesthetics.
- For installations without construction, opt for monoblocs or compacts.
- Verify that the water and drain connections match the chosen model.
- We always recommend a professional installation to ensure safety and durability.
