Compact Toilet

What makes a compact toilet the right choice for your bathroom?

A compact bathroom toilet gives you comfortable sitting space while leaving floor area free for other fixtures:

• Space Saving Footprint: When it comes to small bathrooms, every inch matters. Compact toilets have space saving design that makes your bathroom look tidy, open and uncluttered. 

• Matches Small Sinks: A big toilet looks bulky next to a small basin. Fitting compact toilets for small spaces matches the size of narrow cloakroom sinks. This makes the whole room look neat and tidy.

• Hides Messy Pipework: Most compact models sit flat against the wall or fit into a slim furniture unit. This hides ugly waste pipes and water cisterns out of sight. Your room stays looking modern and uncluttered.

• Much Easier to Clean: Traditional toilets have awkward gaps behind the bowl where dust gathers. Compact designs have smooth flat sides with no hidden corners. Mopping the floor and wiping the pan takes just seconds.

What features do our compact toilets include?

Our compact toilets include practical features designed to make daily use quiet, hygienic, and water efficient:

• Hygienic Rimless Bowl: Most of our small bathroom toilets have a rimless bowl. That means there is no rim around its upper corners . Removing the inner rim makes flush water washes the entire surface smoothly, leaving no hidden ledges for dirt or limescale to collect.

• Quiet Soft Close Seats: Compact toilets come with slim soft close seats included as standard. The lid lowers gently and quietly on its own, preventing loud slamming in downstairs cloakrooms or en suites near bedrooms.

• Water Saving Dual Flush: Concealed cisterns feature simple dual flush push buttons. You can choose a smaller water flush for liquids or a full flush for solids, delivering powerful performance while reducing household water bills.

How do you choose a compact space saving toilet for your room?

You will need to measure your room clearance and plumbing setup before choosing a compact space saving toilet:

• Measure Projection and Clearance: Check the distance from your back wall to nearby doors or shower screens before ordering. Leaving at least 500mm of open space in front of the pan ensures comfortable daily use.

• Pair with Concealed Cisterns: Back to wall and wall hung pans require a hidden cistern inside a wall stud or furniture unit. Buying matching concealed cisterns and wall frames ensures a watertight seal and reliable flushing.

• Check Soil Pipe Alignment: Verify whether your soil pipe exits through the floor or straight back into the rear wall. Selecting a compatible toilet outlet ensures smooth installation without major plumbing changes.
