The Best Square Toilet (Modern Design) 7 Reviews of 2023

The WoodBridge is a basic but certainly not regular square toilet. Although it lacks the automated functionalities of most modern toilets, it includes several user-centric features. 

The T-0020 is an elongated, one-piece square toilet with a skirted trapway that provides a visual appeal and structural support. Due to the narrow cistern of the WoodBridge T-0020, this toilet takes up less space than most of its kind.

The WoodBridge T-0020 has a dual-flush system with a water rating of 1.0/1.6GPF. It integrates the super-quiet siphon flush system and is fully glazed with a protective coat against dirt and other degrading elements. 

The T-0020 square toilet measures the universal height of 16.5-inches (with a seat), making it largely comfortable to sit on. 

It comes with a SoftClose seat with QuickRelease hinges to spare the owners the cost of buying a toilet seat and the noisy function of regular toilet seats. And because of its QuickRelease hinges, owners of the WoodBridge T-0020 do not have to wait 15 seconds for the SlowClose operation. They can always hurriedly close the toilet lid without worrying about the hinges.

The WoodBridge T-0020 is also packaged with the necessary installation hardware, including a special hand wrench for tightening the bolts, making installing the square toilet more straightforward than most. Since it has the standard 12-inch rough-in fitting, this toilet will match most bathrooms – though not all.

The T-0020 toilet is available in a single white color and features a 3-tilt position and a slightly taller tank to provide better back support for those who enjoy resting on the tank. These details are quite different from the WoodBridge T-0001 and the WoodBridge T-0019, and why we made this our pick. 

Speaking of similar models, the WoodBridge T-0019 is pretty much like the T-0020. Besides the tank and structure difference, the T-0019 is a solid ADA-compliant toilet while the T-0020 isn’t. 

We also have the WoodBridge B0921, 99.99% similar to the WoodBridge T-0020 – same height range, same flush rating, same high-efficiency square toilet. It is simply the black variation of the white T-0020. 

Customers are pleased with the WoodBridge T-0020 for its overall high quality, from its sleek design to its powerful, quiet flush and quality glaze. They appreciate its easy installation and the included quality SoftClose seat. Read more about the WoodBridge toilets.

The Duravit 215701005 is part of the Durastyle 215701. toilets This series comprises floor-mounted, elongated-bowl, one-piece square toilets. They all have beautiful designs that are guaranteed to work well in any bathroom space and several thoughtful features that might make their high price a blur. 

The Duravit Durastyle models come in a universal height of 15 ¾-inches. The Duravit Durastyle toilets are all top-flush designs and are available in a single color – the standard white. Some of its models have dual-flush systems of 0.92/1.32GPF, and others have single flush systems of 1.28GPF. 

These toilets use the more water-efficient symphonic/washdown technology and have open rims that make flushing and cleaning their bowls easy but effective. 

The Duravit square toilets are relatively more space-saving than most and are fitted with the standard 12-inch rough-in, making them suitable for most bathrooms.

Duravit 215701005 possesses all the features of the Durastyle series, including the no glaze design and dual-flush. Although its glaze is only present in the 215702005 model, customers have not had issues with stains or maintenance. So, we believe the symphonic flush does the trick. 

Like the other Durastyle toilets, the Duravit 215701005 has a sleek look thanks to its complete internal connections. But this perk goes only as far as beauty. Accessing its water connections after installation might be difficult. Thus, we recommend fitting in an access panel at the bank, so you do not have to dismantle the toilet for every minor fix. 

Another generic flaw of the Durastyle toilets is they do not come with the installation hardware or a seat. Both are required to be purchased separately. But considering the multitude of seat options you can explore, there’s an upside to this quality.

The Duravit 2537090092 is a subsidiary of the Duravit 253709 square toilets. These toilets are two-piece, elongated bowls and are part of Duravit’s modern, inexpensive square toilets collection. 

By standard, they are all of a universal height of about 15 ¾-inches. But this can be upgraded to an ADA-compliant height with a tall-enough seat, which brings us to this flaw: Duravit 253709 toilets do not come with seats or tanks. 

Although the Duravit 253709 toilets do not come with most installation hardware, they are packaged with the Vario connector for SensoWash that allows vertical and horizontal outlet fitting to lengths between 70-180mm. 

The Duravit 2537090092 toilet is one of the Duravit square-toilets dual-flush models. It has a water flow rating of 1.6/0.8GPF and, like the other Duravit toilets, has an open rim flush technology. 

Also, like the other Duravit 253709 square toilets, the Duravit 2537090092 has the standard 12-inch rough-in fitting.

The Swiss Madison St. Tropez is similar to the Swiss Concorde square toilet. It is a one-piece, elongated square toilet with a beautiful design delivered in a compact porcelain bowl. 

The St.Tropez square toilet has a skirted bowl extending to its glazed trapway for better flush performance and extra sturdiness on the outside. This toilet can support up to 450 pounds. 

The St. Tropez is featured in dual-flush systems of 1.1/1.6GPF and single flush models of 1.28GPF, and all its models use the quiet, powerful siphon-jet (vortex) flush. 

These toilets come with a SoftClose, QuickRelease toilet seat that offers comfortable use and easy maintenance. And the required bolts and screws are included for stress-free installation. 

St. Tropez toilets measure the universal height of 16.5-inches, even with the seat. So though they are not ADA-compliant, they are pretty comfortable toilets for the family.

These square toilets are available in varieties. They feature: 

• Several bowl color options.
• Several hardware color options.
• Tankless design with dual-color options.
• Bidet design with dual color options.
• Floor mounted and wall-mounted designs.

Their floor-mounted designs come with unique floor mounting holes for the screws, but the wall-mounted designs require buyers to buy the tank, supply line, and wall actuator separately.

While checking customer reviews, we noticed complaints about the flush power, which we’d like to attribute to these customers having experienced the more powerful symphonic flush system. 

Some customers also complain the square toilet is a bit pricey. But evaluating the price-quality ratio, we’d say it’s worth every penny.

If you are after a modern toilet with a contemporary appeal, then the EAGO TB356 square toilet is for you. It is a floor-mounted, one-piece toilet that is easy to transport and install.

The EAGO TB356 measures a universal height of 15 ¾-inches, which can be upgraded to ADA compliance due to the adjustable height quality of wall-mounted toilets. The EAGO team included a sturdy, practical technology that promises to hold firm to the wall as long as it is used correctly to support its wall-mount system. 

This EAGO toilet is fully glazed and features a dual-flush system of 1.1/1.6GPF, which has been tested to be powerful enough to flush 25 sponge stripes, an equivalent of 90 polypropylene balls. Its flush system has also been reviewed to be less noisy than most flush systems. 

The EAGO TB356 is also identical to the Duravit square toilet, with its single white color and SoftClose toilet seat. The EAGO TB356 is also a well-liked square toilet. According to a customer, “EXCELLENT! Very solid! Looks FABULOUS!! Can’t say enough good things about this product!”

Are you searching for a fully-compliant toilet? You’d want to read this. The Fresca Bath FTL2336 Apus toilet is a one-piece, elongated bowl, modern square toilet with excellent flush power despite its minimalist features.

This compact-sized square toilet is structured to the ADA-compliant comfort height of 17-inches (with a seat) for better sitting, especially for tall persons and persons with mobility issues. It is also UPC-certified because it does not cut back on quality.

The FTL2336 Apus uses a simple, dual gravity-flush system of 1.6/0.8 GPF that works well with the EasyClean-glazed bowl and trapway to ensure proper flushing with zero residues. It is not your typical left-hand lever toilet. 

The Fresca Bath FTL2336 Apus uses the right-hand lever, which might be more aesthetic than functional modification.

This Fresca toilet comes with a soft-close toilet seat for more discrete usage. However, its gravity flush is surprisingly said to be noisy, which rules out the purpose of its SoftClose toilet seat.

Although the Fresca Bath FTL2336 Apus toilet uses the standard 12-inch rough-in, some customers say its installation is pretty challenging, especially if you don’t pay keen attention to the installation manual.

But, the good news is that if you get into a fix, the Fresca team promises real-time professional support with the installation when you contact them. Still, there are complaints of the customer support team being non-responsive.

While there are limited reviews on this stylish toilet, more than a few customers mentioned that their packages came with a missing bolt or two.

The Swiss Concorde square toilet is truly a beauty to behold, with its sleek porcelain square body designed into a one-piece toilet with a skirted base. Available in various colors, including a matte black finish, this toilet is super classy.

The Concorde square toilet goes from design to quality by extending its skirted form from the seamless porcelain exterior to its glazed concealed trapway. This helps it offer balance on the outside and health on the inside because a skirted, glazed trapway has lesser clog and residue risks.

We list the differences between a concealed vs. exposed trapway in this comparison article.

But, that is not all. The Swiss Concorde applies the gravity dual-flush system of 1.1/1.6GPF to ensure it remains water-efficient but doesn’t infringe on flush efficiency. Another great thing about the Swiss Concorde is its gravity flush is characteristically noiseless.

The Concorde square toilet comes in single-flush, side-flush models of 1.2GPF, wall-mounted designs, and tankless versions.

All its models, including the dual-flush designs, measure the universal height of 15.5-inches, 16.5″ with the seat, which is still not ADA-compliant but comfortable for most people, including children. 

You’d like to know that you wouldn’t have to spend a dime on toilet seats because this toilet comes with a SoftClose, QuickRelease seat with an easy-to-detach lid for more thorough cleaning. You don’t even need tools to take off its lid.

The Swiss Concorde toilet is compatible with 12-inch rough-ins and has the necessary installation hardware for its tank versions, but not its tankless designs. Its tankless designs also require interested shoppers to purchase the concealed tank separately.

A similar toilet to the Swiss Madison Concorde toilet is the Swiss Madison Sublime II. They have identical water flow ratings, dual-flush performance, a few similarities in their design, and other similar features. 

But while the Concorde is only available in the single one-piece, square bowl design, the Sublime II is available in one and two-piece designs and features a round bowl instead. It also has dual-flush models with water ratings of 0.8/1.28GPF.

Buyers are happy with the Swiss Madison Concorde toilet – “Piece of art…” And while some customers had issues with their shipping time, they all agreed it was worth the wait. Several reviews mention that this toilet’s water efficiency and flush power are exceptional.
