In A Rush?
Features:
When you have limited bathroom space or just want to make that room feel larger, a wall hung toilet is a solid option. Instead of using a large tank that takes up a lot of space, these models have a tank that sits inside the wall and a bowl that hangs on the wall itself.
While there are quite a few models out there, we think the American Standard Glenwall is the best. It features a small bowl with a tiny tank attached to the top, which gives it a different look.
The Glenwall uses a high rate of pressure to flush the bowl without leaving any debris behind.

10 Best Wall Mounted Toilet Reviews 2019
Though American Standard makes some cheap and affordable models, its Glenwall is the top option for those looking for one they can mount on the wall. It features both a tank and a bowl for installing in the same place and a chrome handle located on the tank. This model does not come with a seat or a carrier, but you can purchase those pieces from American Standard and other manufacturers.
The manufacturer added siphon jets inside that produce more pressure, which then increases the flow rate inside to get more of the debris and waste out of the bowl. It features a construction made of vitreous china that lasts longer than porcelain too.
PROS:
CONS:
The white finish on this model matches most bathrooms and sinks, and it will work with most of the tanks and other components from the manufacturer.
Measuring just over 15-inches wide and 21-inches deep, this model is large enough for most users and can support larger people. It has an elongated bowl rather than a round bowl that offers more space too.
Though it comes with all the mounting hardware you need, you will need to purchase other components to install it. That hardware remains hidden inside the bowl and wall to create a cleaner look. It also lacks the bulky seams found on other models.
PROS:
CONS:
The elongated bowl found on the K-6300 provides more space to help you get in a comfortable position but will not take up any extra space in your bathroom, which makes it a great choice for a small room. It comes with mounting hardware that you can hide away to create a cleaner look. While it is compatible with bidet systems and attachments from KOHLER, you can hide those cords away inside the bowl too.
Though it doesn’t come with all the parts that you’ll need to install it, you can pick up those parts and choose the right ones for your home. The inside of the bowl is completely flat and smooth to keep waste from sticking to the sides and to make the bowl easier to clean.
PROS:
CONS:
With the Starck 3, you get a bowl as well as a seat that attaches to the top. This seat is completely flat and doesn’t feel as comfortable as you might like, and you cannot replace or remove that seat. It does work with a divot along the back of the bowl that lets you prop up the seat to support your back for extended sitting.
The white finish on the bowl works with the white used in your sink, tub and other areas of the bathroom. You can mount this one at different heights based on your height or the heights of other users.
PROS:
CONS:
With this model, you can stop wasting the water that you usually use because the Sublime uses dual flush technology that uses less water when flushing liquid waste. You can use one button to use a smaller amount of water based on the amount of waste in the bowl too. As the bowl has smooth sides, cleaning it is easy because the waste slides right down those sides.
As an ADA compliant model, you can install this product in a handicap bathroom and adjust the height to the exact height needed for that user. While it doesn’t come with all necessary parts, it does come with a lid that closes so softly that you’ll never hear it.
PROS:
CONS:
TOTO includes some of its top features on this model like its dual max flushing system, which helps you bring down water bills. This system actually uses less water when flushing liquid waste and smaller debris, but you can use more water when flushing solid waste to ensure that it all goes down. It works with all the tanks and other parts from the manufacturer too.
Though it doesn’t come with a matching seat, you will find dozens of seats that work on top. It has a universal height and mounts almost anywhere on the wall. You’ll also find that it is compliant with most of the standards that many states have regarding water usage.
PROS:
CONS:
No matter where you want to use it, the Durastyle will mount on almost any wall and at the exact height that you need for comfort. The lid lifts up to reveal a simple seat, and while you can lead the lid against the walls, its curved shape may cause it to rub uncomfortably against your back. It also has a square shape that can dig into your body while sitting.
Some of the benefits of this model include a wash down design that forces water to follow the path of gravity and move from the rim down to the base of the bowl. This design also allows your water to remove more of the waste that can stain the rim and inside of the bowl.
PROS:
CONS:
If you want to create a more modern look in your bathroom, you can’t go wrong with this model, which has a square shape and a bold white finish. Two buttons located on the side gives you access to its dual flush technology. One button has an ultra low flush design that uses only 1.6 gallons to flush the most solid of waste, but the second button uses just 0.8 gallons for flushing down liquid waste.
Unlike other models that feature two separate pieces, this product has just one piece, which makes it easier to mount it with the included hardware. It is also ADA compliant because you can mount it at the perfect height for a disabled person to use.

Depending on the look of your bathroom, you might like the Afwall, which has a commercial look that doesn’t fit in all bathrooms. This look includes a small white bowl and a metal pipe that rises up from the back, and it comes with the proper valve for connecting to your water supply. A small button on the side of this pipe flushes the bowl.
Though it needs strong water pressure to work, the water pressure in your home works with the siphon jet inside to ensure that all waste leaves the bowl. This model has a trapway designed to prevent clogs too.

Verdict: Our Top Pick
Though many models come with just a bowl, the Glenwall from American Standard has both a bowl and an attached tank that you can hang on the wall without hiding inside. This tank holds just enough water for flushing, and it uses more pressure to ensure that more waste goes down when you flush. A lever used for flushing has a chrome finish and sits on the side of the tank.
It does not come with the seat needed to sit down, but it will work with a variety of different seat types. American Standard uses a type of vitreous china in the construction of this model to withstand more use.
How to Choose the Right One?
Is Wash Down or Wash Up a Better Choice?
Traditional models use a wash down design, but these models can use either a wash down or wash up design. With a wash up model, also known as an upflow model, the water moves up the sides of the bowl and then back down. You’ll also find models that feature holes along the sides that spray water out.
Wash down models have bowls that use water in a natural way that comes from the top down. These models often require less cleaning because that water helps wash away the waste and debris from the bowl that lead to stains.
Does it Use One or Two Pieces?
Those that use one piece have a combination base and tank, and both these pieces will mount in the bathroom. If you opt for a one piece model, you’ll get just a base that functions as a seat. These models will require that you hire a plumber to connect the base to a tank inside the wall.
Do You Prefer a Round or Elongated Bowl?
A round bowl is one that is completely circular in shape, but an elongated bowl has a shape similar to an oval. Some people prefer elongated bowls because these bowls are deeper and provide more space for sitting, but some find that their bodies hang over the sides. A round bowl may feel more comfortable as you sit.
Another option is a square or rectangular model. These models are harder to find but often offer more space. The downside is that it takes some time before you feel comfortable sitting because most people grow accustomed to rounder bowls.
Is There a Dual Flush Option?
Dual flush toilets are those that feature one button but are capable of using two different amounts of water when flushing. When you need to flush liquid waste or a small amount of solids, using a higher amount leads to higher bills and water waste. With more waste, you can use a higher amount of water to get rid of that waste.
The flow rating varies between models and between different manufacturers. Most have a minimum flow rating of 0.6 to 0.9 gallons and a maximum rating of up to 1.8 gallons of water. These products stick to the water standards in your area but will still use enough liquid and pressure to remove the debris from the bowl.
