Mayfair Padded Toilet Seat, Cushioned Soft Vinyl over Wood Core Seat, Secure Hinges, Easy Clean, Elongated, Bone

I really like these padded toilet seats, the one we had previously didn't have a wooden core and it sagged and eventually got bent and the material on the seat got brittle and split after about a year.This seat with the wooden core, is far better, it's durable, thick with a lot of padding and very comfortable.I measured the fittings on our toilet before ordering, and it is true to the size stated in the listing because it fit perfectly. It was very easy to install. It's been 9 months so far, time will tell if it holds up longer than our last one, but I have a feeling it will.

Fits great and was easy to install. Color was a perfect match.Update on 7-12-23After purchase in April, I provided this review before a delay in installing it because I had purchased it previously with no problems. The reason I did not install it was because my husband was going through chemo and was unable to help me install it. When I installed it by myself in June (date unknown), I noticed it was not as nice as my first purchase. A month after I installed it, it broke at the hinge attached to the seat on the left side. Since that time, due to his health and appointments, he has used the guest bathroom with the very first seat (like this one) and have had no problems. Unfortunately I was unable toreturn it because the time period had expired. Now I need a new seat and will try buying it again with the hopes that it will be a better seat than the last one. This will be my 3rd purchase (buying due to ease of installation, the soft seat and fits the toilet which is an older toilet in a condition that I don't want to replace). My hope is that the manufacture (construction) of this item will be as good as my first purchase,

I got this toilet seat Feb 2024. It lasted 1yr 2 months before the vinyl creased, then tore. I am, however ordering another because it is softer and warmer than a standard painted wood cover and the ease of installing and removing for cleaning is also superior. If they would improve the durability of the vinyl I would give it a 10!

Some of the padded toliet seats that are available now-a-days are not well made. They're made with hard plastic and not wood inside the padding. I have 2 bathrooms & one of these in each. I just replaced one (was maybe 6 or 7 yrs old) b/c the seat plastic covering cracked & felt it was not sanitary... I really love these- easy on, easy off. You dont need tools but I always use a screw driver and a pair of plyers- easy for me as I am 72 & well... hands dont work like they did 10 yrs ago. 💗

Shipping was a little slow, but after receiving it was worth the wait. Super easy to install, very comfortable and sturdy. I used a different brand that was flimsy and cracked after a few months of use so i bought this one and ive been MUCH happier.Also very easy to clean with no distortion to the material from cleaning chemicals.

The price of this product was a consideration. It was fairly cheap compared to other seats. The idea of padding was enticing, but the main reason for the purchase was thinking the padding would raise the seat height up some. The old toilet seat broke so this purchase came up. The concept of a snap off "calibrated" screw was enticing to eliminate the need for tools - which really wouldn't have been a big deal.Install was easy...almost too easy. The snap off fixture sure didn't feel super snug. Being a person that historically over-torqued things the snap off function was appreciated...but didn't leave a confident feeling the seat was seated properly. But to date - no issues with that.The reasons for the low rating is because of the material used for the seat and the hinges that attach the seat and seat lid. The first issue is whatever this coating material is made of - is not like the hard plastic of a normal seat. It's some kind of softer material. And it will stain. The underside of the seat definitely stains quickly. Clorox full strength bleach was not enough to eliminate the stains even after letting it sit for some time. That's kind of jacked up - it's not an issue with "hard" seats. Second issue is the pivot setup for the toilet seat and lid. Simply stated - there is so much flex in that pivot point the toilet seat and lid can slide around significantly from side to side. Over time flexing of this plastic will surely lead to something breaking - for sure. The other issue it creates is acceptable use with some aftermarket bidet type of products. Use of this toilet seat with a "Biffy" bidet is not a good idea at all. The seat flexes side to side so much (best estimate is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch) that any "Biffy" sort of adapter where a spacer is needed with the toilet seat results in the toilet seat slipping past the spacer and having one side of the toilet seat or another crash into any side mounted bidet...resulting in breaking the bidet.Perhaps without a side mounted bidet everything would be acceptable - the play in the pivot point would still be there but maybe as not much as a concern - but I question if the normal spacers prevent the "clunk" if it slips off the actual toilet. The padding difference from a hard to padded seat with this product was minimal - height change not worth it. A purchase of a different brand seat in the very near future with better construction is imminent before it can break an already installed side mounted bidet.Update - so tired of the seat flopping around and sliding off the toilet. The thing is going in the trash soon as the nee seat I ordered shows up.

The seat was easy to install and comfortable, but it is not made to last. The vinyl covering split at the seams after about a year of normal use by a household of 2 average sized people.

Very well built and very sturdy. It attaches very securely and it does not slip around and come loose. The vinyl on the seat and lid is a nice and thick. Fits the toilet very well! I would recommend this particular brand/model over any slightly cheaper one. A few dollars made a huge difference.
