When choosing a corner toilet, knowing the precise dimensions is the first step to ensure it fits your bathroom layout — especially in compact or irregular spaces.
While our previous guides cover installation, rough-in measurement, and space-saving tips, this post focuses on exact dimension data and what each specification means in real-world use.
Ⅰ. Understanding Corner Toilet Dimensions
Corner toilets are designed with a triangular tank that fits neatly into a 90° angle, allowing the bowl to extend diagonally into the room. This structure helps maximize available floor space while maintaining full-size comfort.
However, not all corner toilets are created equal — slight differences in projection, seat height, or base size can determine whether the model will fit comfortably. Below, we’ll break down the full dimensions of our corner toilet model and explain how each measurement affects fit and function.

Compact design that fits comfortably even in a 5×5 ft bathroom. |
Ⅲ. How These Dimensions Affect Fit and Function
Each specification above plays a role in both comfort and compatibility:
- 32.7-inch total depth allows full seating comfort while keeping projection shorter than most regular one-piece toilets (typically around 28–31 inches straight out from the wall).
- 17.2-inch seat height complies with ADA comfort height, reducing strain on knees and joints.
- 2-inch trapway and 3-inch flush valve work together to deliver an efficient, clog-resistant flush — matching U.S. residential standards.
- Compact 9.4”×20” base footprint helps minimize floor obstruction and provides extra room for cleaning or repositioning.

Ⅳ. Space Planning Tips
Even though corner toilets save significant space, accurate measurement remains essential.
Here are a few planning guidelines:
- If your space allows, leave about 2 inches of clearance between the tank and both corner walls to make installation and maintenance easier.
- For comfortable legroom, allow at least 35 inches from the corner to any obstacle (vanity, door, or wall).
- Keep 15 inches minimum between the bowl’s centerline and sidewalls — the same spacing required by most plumbing codes.
- Verify the rough-in distance (12 inches from side wall to flange center) before installation.
