Abstract
A flush toilet according to an embodiment includes a main water guide channel, a bending water guide channel, a rim water guide channel, and a retention part. The bending water guide channel bends a flow direction of washing water supplied from the main water guide channel. The rim water guide channel causes the washing water to flow toward and to be spouted from a water spout part. The retention part is formed in at least the bending water guide channel. An upper part of the retention part is formed into an opened concave shape and the retention part retains a part of the washing water. Furthermore, the retention part is formed in such a manner that an upper end thereof on a downstream side is horizontal to a bottom surface of the water spout part or higher than the bottom surface of the water spout part.
