Not to bum you out, but you could have gotten a very cool stainless steel wall hung toilet for a lot less than $800, and it would have jived with the ofuro. You can often pick them up dirt cheap from counties or cities that are redoing thier jails, as there is one in every cell (but don’t ever tell your wife that or she’d never let you install one…lol)

Jack,

That looks like a good deal. The only thing I wonder is if it includes the tank, and carrier (mounting stuff). IF it does have everything you need, then that is great. Thanks for the link.

Hi,

Your renovation looks great!

I am renovating three bathrooms and want to use wall hung toilets. But $800.00 a pop is a lot of money for me as an elementary music teacher!

Did you consider this toilet? It seems to be a bit cheaper, but perhaps I’m missing something…

nice site. i’m beginning a bathroom renovation as well….
and, like you, i wanted a nice wall hung toilet (being an architect doesn’t help) but, couldn’t justify spending the $800 - $1000 for a nice duravit model…..

however, i did find a nicelt designed two piece toilet form duravit…the starck series 3
$262 on the ira woods site -

BontempiFan, I don’t have any experience with faucetline.com. Anyone?

DavidM, Yeah, only a mere $2500. Those things do everything, I’d definitely want it with the toaster oven option.

I’m surprised you didn’t get a Japanese toilet like the Toto Neorest to go along with the ofuro. The Neorest 500 features front and rear warm water washing, automatic air dryer and deodorizer and can be had at Standard Plumbing for a mere $2500.

Great blog.

one question: have you had any experience with faucetline.com? We are remodeling our condo and found their prices way below the best quotes we’ve gotten so far.
