How do you choose the right toilet—and how often should it be replaced?
A standard toilet generally lasts 15–20 years, but this can vary depending on quality and usage. Signs that it’s time to replace it include:
- Recurring leaks or flushing problems
- Discoloration or cracks in the porcelain
- Outdated model that is not water-efficient
Many people also choose to replace their toilet when renovating their bathroom—both for practical reasons and for aesthetic ones.
