Metal toilets would be much harder to keep clean than porcelain. The main reason porcelain is used is because the surface is extremely flat, on a microscopic level, and extremely hard so it resists scratching. Its also impervious to most cleaning agents.
You can get metal really smooth, but compared to porcelain it’s like sand paper up close. And most of the affordable stainless stuff is fairly easy to scratch.
They said enamled metal, like a non-plastic bathtub. Basically metal with a porcelain coating.
Yeah, I understand. I don’t know if they’re enameled, but you can buy metal toilets.
