I have two newer toilets with perfectly matched seats.
Toilet number three is an older Mansfield toilet. It's a heavy model that looks good.
Years ago I considered junking this toilet to save water. Two large fire bricks on
opposite sides of the tank drastically reduced water usage. The bowl still empties
quickly, so there is no problem.
Standard dimension round seats have never fit properly with this Mansfield bowl.
I use plastic studs on the underside of the seat to keep it stable. I do not know
the model number. It might be under the bowl, but I'm not going to pull this
toilet in a foolish attempt to find model number.
I carefully measured the bowl rim using two framing squares. The width is 13¾ inches.
I measured the length from center of hinge holes to the front edge of the bowl rim.
Length is 16 inches.
Standard round seats hang over the front by at least ¾ of an inch. Same thing with
the width.
The bowl does not look strange or odd. No one has ever said, "Wow! That toilet looks
really weird!"
There must be seats that would fit this Mansfield toilet properly. Mansfield is not going
to have a seat for this bowl. It's too old. (The color is blue.)
