does anyone know if you can use any sort of concealed cistern with a back to wall wc?
have seen a wc at B&Q, but the cistern is more expensive than the loo!

Make sure it doesn't need a frame too, they are only about £200 in some cases.
You can use different cisterns with the toilets but you need to be sure it is going to fit inside what you are hoping to conceal it in. Please don't forget the access for when it goes wrong, the number of people who build in access must be about 1 in 20.A house isn't a home without a cat.
Those are my principles. If you don't like them, I have others.
I have writer's block - I can't begin to tell you about it.
You told me again you preferred handsome men but for me you would make an exception.

We have had 2 concealed cisterns with frames fitted within the last 3 months, both cisterns and frames are made by Geberit. Our builder only recommended these, plus we asked a plumbers merchant friend. The frame is quoted as universal, but they have a list online of compatible loos

We did our research too, and Geberit were the only manufacturer to boldly quote how much weight their frames can cope with.
Big range of push buttons.
Plumber had no problems fitting them.
Geberit say that the maintenance can be done through the face plate.
No problems so far0
