I need to find a new toilet, but here are the unique details. I have a 10" rough in and a baseboard heater that runs behind my toilet. I have found threads on this forum for recommendations on 12 inch rough in toilets with baseboard heat behind them, but nothing for a 10 inch. The baseboard heater is 3.5" deep and 9" tall.

The solution that I want is to find a toilet with a 10" rough in that has enough clearance behind the bowl for my heater. I don't want to re-do the rough in, install an offset flange, move my heater, etc. etc. Can anybody help me find a toilet like this?

So are you saying you have a 6.5" rough in? Seems to me that the heater actually is the wall for the purpose of measuring. Maybe I haven't followed your description right.

IF the bowl is a "unique" 10 inch one, with a standard tank, there should be enough room behind it, but if it is a 12" bowl with a narrow tank, then there will not be.

It depends on the shape, and how low the heater goes to the floor.
