Do stainless steel toilets have any disadvantage for home usage?

>>1175541
they will eventually rust if you piss all over them and don't clean.

>>1175542
stainless steel rusts?

>>1175545
Yeah, it's steel with a thin coat of chromium to protect against rusting. Once that thin layer is gone, it'll rust.

>>1175545
Yes.... its just extremely slow. You have to seriously neglect it.

The only real disadvantage is your house will resemble a detention facility...

>>1175545
If any free iron gets on it it can. What keeps it from rusting is the chromium forms an oxide on the surface that prevents more oxidation, similar to aluminum or copper. However if you add rust or it gets covered in something acidic and can't form the oxide, it'll rust like any other steel.

You don't want one of these in your home, trust me - they look hanging and deeply uninviting, no matter what you do with them. Their sole 'advantage' for use in commercial premises, they are quite difficult to destroy - which, as anyone who has been involved with premises licensed to sell alcohol (+ prob prisons..) can confirm, is a plus. But, that's all, they suck badly otherwise - don't do this, honestly. Grills will flee as well.

>>1175581
>Words cant describe how stupid this latest trend is.

they've been around for like 40 years, so not a new "trend".

>>1175593
Sure they have been around, but they weren't very prevalent compared to today.

>>1175541
That's like 10gs worth of toilet right there...

>>1175567
As I build my camping RV this gets due consideration on weight savings.

Why would you want one of these? They are fucking freezing on your ass. Japan has the right idea with heating cushions on toilet seats, very nice.

Porcelain is much better at retaining heat than metal is. So a metal toilet is going to be much colder than a porcelain toilet.

>>1175580
>I don't like my ass being frozen
The biggest problem here. OP you should hook up your stainless toilet seat to the mains so it heats itself.

>>1175609
Toilet seats are usually made of plastic, the bowl is the only part made of ceramic.

>>1175591
>Grills will flee as well

I like the industrial look to it. That's just it, looks, stainless really appeals to me. Don't you have a stainless kitchen sink anyway, why not having a toilet too?

>>1175600
They're like $150 on Alibaba.

>>1175612
Because I don't sit my ass on a sink multiple times a day.

If you ever worked in a restaurant you won't have anything stainless in your whole house. Seriously, fuck stainless. Except rifle barrels, they're cool, but fuck the appliances.

>>1175633
Develop

disadvantage: can't sanitize with bleach as it reacts badly with stainless steel. Use something else like hydrogen peroxide.

Also care in selecting bowl cleaners that don't contain acids, which many do, that will attack ss and then release fumes you don't want to breathe.

>>1175541
Clearly you never sit on one on winter...

Looks like prison.

They clash with modular bidets, the kind you attach as a seat to an efisting toilet. And let me tell you, you want to have a bidet.

>>1175559
Not OP but the alloys used in stainless fixtures can almost be described as rustproof. You'd have to do some real abuse to get a stainless toilet to rust...like leave it full of bleach or acid for days.

Stainless cutlery, sure. That shit will rust.

>>1175656
additionally, not all stainless is created equally. An earlier poster suggested a 'thin layer of chromium' whereas its grain structure is chromium throughout the depth of the metal.

It even takes well to micro-coatings which are pretty hydrophobic. Instead of the spray on ceramic stuff, it's basically bead blasted.

That said, my next place will have a wall hung commercial toilet. Lots of spraying power and easy to mop up without a trap behind the wall/drain. And heated seats (even modded my soda with 'em). And maybe an in-wall electric pressure washer wand to hose everything down and a compressed air junction from the garage to blow it dry.

>>1175546
So if I had a solid chromium toilet, could i just blast it with piss 24/7?

>>1175682
Plutonium might be a bit more piss-resistant.

>>1175682
Spring for iridium. You could keep it filled with boiling acid in a burning fire pit 24/7, though that might make it challenging to use. But topically, no bodily fluids or cleaning products will affect it at all.

>>1175559
"It looks like it has no stain."
"Well I'll be damned, my friend. It is stainless indeed!"

the only disadvantage to a stainless throne would be corrosion over time, and maybe a cold ass in the morning

the word stainless was a marketing term back when it was first invented, since it was more resistant to runny rust marks when it got wet

modern stainless is mostly rustproof tho thanks to advancements in alloy compositions

stainless can still corrode over time tho, especially if in contact with a dissimilar metal and water. the electrolytic reaction turns the whole thing into a battery, with the stainless and brass/carbon steel/whatever other metal forming electrodes and the water acting as an electrolyte

better stainless will resist corrosion longer but eventually all of it will corrode from electrolysis if its touching another metal, so you would need to make sure its installed right

the most common types are probably 302 (general use stainless, pretty cheap), 316 (more corrosion resistance but more $) and 409 (construction and auto parts)

if you can find a shitter made with good quality stainless then it would be worth it, but you might end up paying for the stainless name and getting a shitty low-chrome-content poop bucket instead

I own a Uranium Urinal myself, it's very piss-resistant and I can easily piss in the dark.

By the sound of it the ideal toilet is carbon-fibre on the outside for lightweight speed, iridium on the inside so it never corrodes, a solid copper seat that you pass several hundred amps through to heat up (plus bonus bacterial resistance), and an e-fister sexual bidet attachment, am I missing anything?

I'm kinda on the fence between teflon for non-stick or inert metal for longevity. You wouldn't need teflon if you hooked up the flush mechanism to a big enough vacuum pump, so I hope you don't mind being prolapsed every time you take a dump. You probably wouldn't even need to push or anything, just have the turd sucked right out of you. This exists in space, right?

Add a camera for stool analysis. No that is a real think, anon. Using a Raspberry Pi (no pun, honestly) you could put the experience on YouTube to savour the rewards of the efforts and instagram the cable for that extra fresh update.

Cameras in the big is old news. In fact yet another case was on the news the other day. Some really go that extra mile (in rain wear).

What? My point was that sitting on the toilet seat is reserved for women and the mentally disabled. So why would you need to heat the toilet seat if you don't ever use it?

Hes a retard troll who claims, only faggots use seats - a view incidentally shared by a lot of Southern Europe and The Vatican, as 'cleaner' - which maybe also the first time I've heard SE bothering about the cleanliness of anything, but, whatever. NOTE ALSO: none of these seatless proponents enjoy temperatures that would leave you stuck to a stainless bowl.

Keep my trusty one next to the toilet instead of a plunger

Stainless steel is like aluminum - it passivates on exposure to oxygen. Basically its own corrosion forms a metal oxide layer which protects it from further corrosion. This is unlike other iron/steel alloys, where the resulting metal oxide is substantially less dense and more voluminous, and tends to crack and flake upon formation (exposing additional metal to the oxygen).

I've read horror stories that Chinese steel at bargain prices is rarely the grade they claim it to be

>>1177385
My understanding is that Chinese metal is so cheap because the government subsidizes it to the point that it's basically not profitable at all. Just a cheap commodity product basically. Of course, because it's China I'm sure there are also poisonous heavy metals involved somehow.

Bleach is fine on stainless, just don't be retarded and use it undiluted. Typical household bleach is something like 5.25%, so you only need like 2 teaspoons in a gallon of water to have a strong disinfectant.

Saw this everywhere in Italy. You think about all the times you've had to fix a toilet tank and wonder what the hell they are thinking.

The trouble with stainless is that some day somebody is going to use cleanser or the wrong kind of scouring pad and scratch it. Then you're stuck with it.

Funny story... I was installing a new stainless cooktop in our kitchen. Literally hooking up the gas as the last step. I crawl out of the cabinet, stand up, and see that my wife is cleaning it with a rough scouring pad. Seriously, the thing was never even lit once before it was scratched up.

>>1183172
