Since we are officially allowed to discuss products here, I’m curious to know which toilet you prefer? Of course, other brands are welcome too, but we definitely want a toilet with either an open rim or rimless design. There are still models from Duravit (DuraStyle) or Laufen (Pro), but we don’t like their appearance, purely subjective. The Keramag Renova Rimfree also doesn’t suit our taste visually. I’m not sure if there are other brand-name products that are either rimless or have an open rim.
The Subway 2.0 and the Keramag Icon Rimfree look quite similar and both appeal to us. After favoring the Subway 2.0 for a long time, we are now leaning more towards the Keramag Icon Rimfree. The reason is that it is truly rimless, while the Subway 2.0 has an open rim.
What did you buy and why? Which of the two do you think is better and why?

As mentioned at the beginning, we have the Subway 2.0 in the main bathroom and the Subway 2.0 compact in the guest bathroom.
We moved in just under 2 months ago and use the toilets regularly.
So far, I have not noticed any splashing or overflowing anywhere.
We would definitely recommend them. Same here. No splashing at all, with both the Subway 2.0 and the Subway 2.0 compact.
However, make sure to choose the CeramicPlus option. The extra cost is worth it.

Our plumbing expert told us that CeramicPlus isn’t really necessary. He rarely sells it and says that after a few years there’s no trace of it left on the fixtures. The question now is whether you can notice any difference with this CeramicPlus.
Best regards,
Sabine Yes, you can definitely tell when something is coated with CeramicPlus. Water beads off just like on a freshly polished car, so dirt doesn’t stand a chance of sticking.

Ultimately, this thread isn’t very helpful. Opinions vary—some people have it, others don’t. And so-called professionals with their own views are quoted as well.
In the end, the only options are to try it out for yourself or decide based on the price.
