10 Easy Pieces: Traditional Floor-Standing Toilets

April 5, 2017

Like the look of a vintage loo but prefer a model that pairs retro appeal with modern functionality and efficiency? Here are 10 favorites.

(Note: We’ve divided the selection into one- and two-piece toilets. The main difference is size: a one-piece toilet has a connected tank and sits lower on the bowl, while a two-piece toilet has a separate tank that makes the fixture a bit higher than a one-piece.)
