Kohler Corbelle vs. Kohler Irvine

[Cheap Dad]

In our search for new toilets, my wife expressed that she would like a skirted bowl to make cleaning easier. To some extent, that reset my searching but I'm down to the Kohler Corbelle and the Kohler Irvine. My local supply house only has the Irvine on display, so I'm limited on seeing both in person.

I say that because we were heading in the direction of a Kohler Highline Arc but when we went to see it in person at Home Depot, the tank appeared undersized. I'm sure its not functionally, but aesthetically, we thought the tank should be bigger.

I've seen some reviews of the Corbelle that suggest that the tank is narrow, which makes me concerned that once we get it out of the box, we'll have the same reaction as the Highline.

Does any one have any input on choice between these two? For reference, my cost on the Corbelle is nearly $225 less than the Irvine.

There is nothing wrong with the sizing of the tank. You're only dropping 1.28 gallons no matter what. Or.....unless you hold the handle a bit longer instead of letting it drop quickly.
But regardless, they are both going to flush well with 1.28 G the way they are designed to do. Don't worry about the tanks.
Pick a style you like and run with it.
