Advantages and disadvantages of the
model Toilet bowls with a shelf or, as they are also called, bowl toilet bowls are considered to be an outdated model, however, if desired, they will not acquire special labor. It is easy to find them - in the bowl of such toilet bowls there is a horizontal ledge.

Splash and the "Anti-slip" system
Toilets with a shelf used to be ubiquitous. However, today manufacturers produce other more convenient models, for example, toilets with a visor.

This deviation and saves the seated person from the spray from the toilet. This toilet bowl also does not sin unpleasant odors and is not exacting to frequent use of the brush, since the waste almost does not contaminate the walls of this product.
But most manufacturers today prefer toilet bowls with a funnel. As can be judged by the name, similar in shape to the funnel, they easily drag all waste products into the sewer system and there is almost no need to use the brush. These toilet bowls also differ in a small amount of water, you will not feel any unpleasant odors from them, but at the same time, their main and very unpleasant drawback is the splashes and splashes that such an aggregate can give to the person sitting on it. And the spray appears not only in the process of coping with natural needs, but also when washing away waste.
Manufacturers do their best to combat this phenomenon and over the shape of a bowl that could protect a person from splashing, experimenting. For example, the system "Anti-spill" leaves a minimum amount of water at the bottom of the bowl. However, these measures do not always help, and because the toilets with a shelf today are gaining a second life.
