Help with locating a replacement for old American Standard

[williamrct]

I thought I posted this earlier but I seem to have lost that post. I have an old 18 year American Standard toilet with a 10 inch rough in. The issue is the tank has a narrow depth 6 1/2 inch. I am looking for a replacement toilet that also has narrow depth tank. I spoke with American Standard and they do not have anything comparable. Hoping someone here can help point me in the right direction.

Thank you

What do you mean "looking for a replacement toilet that also has narrow depth tank."?

Does that mean the toilet tank will be under a shelf that limits the height of the toilet that will fit?

There are things that were obstructing the space for the toilet. Since this post we decided to just renovate the space and end the search for a hard to find match of the existing toilet. Thank you for the reply.

OK. There are people who extend a lavatory countertop over the toilet with what is called a banjo top/shelf.

Will that renovation include a new closet flange with a 12 inch rough-in? If not, there are 10-inch rough Toto Drakes as well as more expensive Toto toilets that use a Unifit to handle 10 inch. AS has 10 inch rough Cadets.

I recommend that you install an outlet (GFCI of course) for a powered bidet attachment while you are renovating. A non-powered unit is OK for some, but many want heated water.

Too many choices!

I have decided to buy a new toilet for my 12 y.o. son's bathroom. There is a silly banjo shelf above the toilet it at 31" high that has severely limited the choices, not only the total height but wanting space to be able to lift the toilet up and onto the floor bolts or get into the tank in the...

An alternative is to make the shelf extension removable for service.
