Hi everyone,

Sorry if this seems like an ignorant question; but when I visit my local showrooms that have some Toto models on display, the bowl openings all seem extremely small -- are there models with bigger seat openings? I'm a pretty big guy, and the small bowl openings make me feel really insecure, like I may soil the seat or the toilet very easily... :(

Ideally I'd like to find a model with the following requirements:

Biggest elongated bowl opening, with the ability to add a Washlet (with big opening as well -- but the Washlet seems to make the opening even smaller...) later on.

Most powerful flush (G Max or Double Cyclone? Maybe 1.6 instead of 1.28?)

ADA/Universal height for my mother (this is a must.)

One Piece with CEFIONTECT for easier cleaning if at all possible; Two Piece with CEFIONTECT is OK if it meets all the other requirements above.

Contemporary or modern style.

Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated. My local salesperson said the small opening seems to be a common complaint for customers; but she couldn't offer any suggestions.

Thanks in advance!

The SS214 seat has a larger opening and flatter than the SS114 and comes complete with the Soiree

In the United States, there are two bowl sizes.

Regular ( Round )
Elongated.

Hardware stores carry these two sizes.

Pictured above is the builder grade Church 585 painted wood seat.

The Church 585 has a smaller opening then the Toto Softclose SS114

Crane makes several models they call "ComfortWidth" with bowls that are 2 inches wider than a standard bowl and include the custom matching seat. I don't see it listed in the latest MaP report, but the gravity model has ADA height and a 3 inch flush valve. Other Crane models with 3 inch valves performed well.

It doesn't look like it's any bigger opening, but the china is thicker.
It won't be able to take a Washlet seat later as it's too wide.
No "CEFIONTECT" option available.

And again the seat opening doesn't look any bigger than a normal toilet.

I just measured the SS114 seat and the opening is 7-7/8 x 11-3/4" and the SS214 is 8 x 12" so not much of a difference.
I also measured a Bemis and a Kohler and it has the same dimensions. The Duravit is 9 x 12-1/2" which is the biggest i found in my showroom.
