My husband and I just bought our first home, which we'll only be in for about five years. The toilet works fine, but he's really set on getting a high-end Toto bidet toilet (not just the seat, the whole deal). He's thinking about installing it and stashing our old toilet in the shed until we move, so we can take the Toto with us to our next house. I need some convincing points to tell him that a fancy bidet seat would be just as good instead. I'd prefer arguments other than 'it's weird to store a used toilet in our shed' since that hasn't worked!

I get your point, but you have to consider the hassle of reinstalling a toilet that sat in storage for years. What if it doesn't work right after removing it? Just stick to upgrading the seat for simplicity's sake!
If cleanliness is a concern, cleaning it with bleach might make it usable. But honestly, is it really worth it? Plus, have you looked into other brands like OVE? We've got one and it's fantastic!
Honestly, new toilets aren’t that pricey, usually around $100-200 at places like Lowe's or Home Depot. Storing an old toilet for years is pretty unsanitary to me, not to mention gross. Plus, installing and reinstalling a used toilet sounds like a hassle! Just get a nice bidet toilet now and save everyone the trouble later.
True! You could just clean the old one really well if needed, but why deal with the stress when you can enjoy something new?
Exactly! Plus, think about the next person who might live in your house. It's just not a great idea to leave a used toilet behind!
