Toilets

Another question from our walkthrough of an Aria.....the toilets seemed to be “short” are there seat height toilets for RVs? Is that an option from the manufacturer?

You can buy one of those "risers" for the toilet. Never seen higher toilet as an option but there may be something available aftermarket. This article mentions a few higher models now available from Thetford.

I've even heard folks talk about building platforms for their toilets...

Our 30FE's toilet is mounted on a raised portion of the bathroom that raises the toilet about 8". It's standard, not a special order. Very much appreciated by us old folks with our bad knees and hips.

We have the same model, us tall guys love that as well . Our old TT was just on the floor and it felt like an airplane toilet.

in the industry there are two 'height' style commodes, one is the typical stand-alone just like at your home, and the other is a 'short' model due to the need for some manufacturers to provide a raised platform where the plumbing p-trap is housed. None are designed to be any 'shorter' than any other commode you would buy for your home, though it's true that some commodes are not 'high enough' for some folks, and are 'too high' for others - the rest of us find them just right ; )

If they're too short: why not just leave the bathroom door open?

Maybe someone on Shark Tank will invent an "air ride seat toilet".
