- FloridaFlyer86ExplorerHahaha lanerd, if I needed to inspect what I'd done that closely I could probably get a flashlight! I have though considered the fact that I plan to use graywater (shower and bath sink only, no kitchen) to flush the toilet, the graywater is probably not going to leave as much visible soap scum in a white bowl as a black one.
- FloridaFlyer86ExplorerI'm loving the chrome for my race car trailer someday haha! Looks like something Tim Allen would have on tool time. I worked with a Tim Allen the past few months incidentally - not the famous one.

I looked into that for a bathtub in my old house. I think it would be tough to find an old RV commode that could be refurbished though. - 96Bounder30EExplorer IIHow about chrome?

- lanerdExplorer IIWe have a black toilet at home as is the tub and sink. Looks great, however, there are times when you're sitting on the toilet that you will need to look into the bowl for..ahhh..well, we'll leave that unsaid. In any case, being black really restricts that visual requirement. And as mentioned, leaves water spots on rim, especially if you do your #1 business standing up.
Ron - FloridaFlyer86ExplorerHaha amen to that.. working on the toilet time is better spent doing something else and I've spent a fair share fighting with the bowl seal on my sealand. Prefer to avoid that in the future !
- Old-BiscuitExplorer IIIHave the Aqua Magic Style Plus high profile with sprayer in 5vr.
Been using it FT for 7 yrs.
Had to replace bowl seal once......my fault, I tore it
And had to replace water valve.....my fault, I broke it when installing a shut-off valve on water line to toilet
Otherwise been a good toilet.......for a toilet. I'm more into functionality vs decor :B - FloridaFlyer86ExplorerWow quite a price premium on the stylin' color option eh? Going to eat into my maid budget for keeping those water spots buffed off haha. Thanks biscuit! Any experience with that model? Regardless of color im going to be in the market soon doing a cargo trailer conversion
