  • the inward surface of the rim is an identical surface to the bowl face of the bowl portion at least at the front side, so stains are hardly adhered to the rim.
  • the rim is an open rim, stains are hardly adhered to the rim channel such as a rear side of an upper side wall portion or a rear side of an inner side wall portion.
  • the rim is a closed rim, stains are hardly adhered to the inside of the rim channel through a front side of a lower side wall portion or water spout openings.
  • the inward surface of the rim is an identical surface to the bowl face of the bowl portion, stains exist at the position which a cleaning person easily sees, and in addition, the stains are easily wiped out at one time. Accordingly, it is possible for the cleaning person to carry out the cleaning satisfactorily.
  • the inward surface of the rim is an identical surface to the bowl face of the bowl portion at least at the front side, the minimum operation and effect of the first invention can be obtained.
  • the reason of this is that stains caused by a splash of urine generated at the time of using the toilet or a splash generated at the time of going to defecate are likely to be positioned at the front side.
