Toilet Seats

The seat itself is well made, and very useful. I got it for my wife, who has knee issues and cannot get up from a low sitting position without help. The functional cutouts are, according to her, very helpful and well placed. The only issue I have with this seat is its method of attachment to the toilet bowl. The attachment is by gravity and friction. This makes the seat easy to remove, but removal is not preferred because the standard seat had to be removed to put this one on. Indeed, the seat is so easy to remove that sitting down on it in an uncontrolled fashion could remove the seat at an inopportune moment, shall we say. This hasn't happened here, because my wife still has decent mobility. IF, on the other hand, the intended user has very poor mobility, he or she would require more assistance than with a seat that attaches more securely. Again, this may not be a problem for you (it isn't for us), and the easy removal makes cleaning a breeze, so this is still a recommended product for most."..."  Read more

I have a friend visiting and he was unable to get off the toilet by himself. I had a regular toilet seat extender but was still too low so I ordered the raised seat because it was advertised to extend height by 8 inches. It was so easy to install and it can be removed easily after use. Padded seat is very comfortable and the seat is easy to clean. Gave him back his freedom of movement and was well worth the price. Thank you"..."  Read more

This product is working, and it does look very nice. However, I am concerned that the arms may not continue to hold up as I hear the metal connectors make popping sounds at times. Other than that and a bit of sliding at the front end from time to time, it seems pretty sturdy. One drawback is that when the men stand to use it their urine builds up between the seat and toilet rim in the back, and it is difficult to get at to clean properly. On the other hand we have this installed in our one and only bathroom and 5 people are using it... So this might not be an issue if you are female and the only user. I'm a 44 year old woman and I was able to install it pretty easily with a screwdriver since my 95 year old grandma was moving in with us. She is small and light and says it works great for her, while I'm a large woman and find the limited space between the arms limits my ability to handle my hygiene after using the toilet... a small price to pay to keep my grandma happy and independent in the bathroom."..."  Read more
