The two measurements that decide everything are the trap way and the rough-in distance. An S-trap discharges through the floor, a P-trap through the wall, and the distance from the finished wall to the drain centre must suit the pan. Wall-hung models save floor space but need a concealed frame rated for the load, so plan the installation with your plumber.
Flush volume, seat height and the shape of the bowl affect daily comfort more than the styling. A 3/6 litre dual flush is efficient, a rimless design is easier to clean, and a comfort-height seat suits older users. Vitreous china holds its glaze for years — check the warranty and the availability of matching seats before you commit.
