BEMIS 500EC 346 Toilet Seat with Easy Clean & Change Hinges, ROUND, Durable Enameled Wood, Biscuit/Linen , White

Great price and great quality. Nice molded wood product. The directions were easy to follow. Fits perfectly and looks/feels good. The Bisque color is exactly what I have — a very light bone/tan (just like light almond electrical products are compared to the older dark, dingy ivory). Some posters erroneously called it “basically white”. Nope, it’s bisque.

Me gusto que sea dura, se sienta de buena calidad y aparte sea para limpiar rápidamente, llego rápido y todo bien

Well packed. Quality toilet seat.

So this seat comes with NO INSTRUCTIONS. Here's how to install quickly and easily. It can make the difference of loving or hating this seat.Turn the hinge anchor covers to the unlock position (left). Push the long plastic bolts (phillips head first) into bottom side of hinge. They snap in. They don't screw in. Then turn the anchor covers to the lock position, locking in the plastic bolts and giving your seat some fangs.Place seat on toilet, pushing bolts through toilet's seat mounting holes.Take the little black plastic nuts, broad end first, and screw onto long plastic bolts from the bottom. Make as hand tight to toilet as possible. Broad end first makes the nut wing easier to grip from the bottom, as it goes on either way.Note: It can be hard to screw nuts on all the way for lack of finger space. Don't be afraid to trim the wing of the nut a little with a scissors if needed. This is necessary for my Kohler toilet. Then just screw it on as far and tight as you can.Now that the seat's on, you can use the quick-release feature to tighen it down harder. Turn both hinge anchor covers to the unlock position. Now pull the entire seat off the toilet. The seat comes off and the plastic bolts stay, exposing the phillips heads.Tighten them down hard with a phillips screwdriver while holding the black nuts below. Carefully place toilet seat back over bolts until seated securely. Turn covers to lock position and make sure all is tight.And there you go! It's on and it can be pulled on and off til your hearts' content without unscrewing.Note: The caps of the hinge anchor covers do NOT pry up and open. They look like they should, but don't. Down the road, it's easy to forget you can't flip those covers up to expose the phillips head for tightening. They can break off if you try. You have to pull the whole seat off to get to the bolts for tightening. Tip: Whenever you pull seat off to clean, have a screwdriver handy and tighten down harder if necessary.Confession: I used to hate this toilet seat and vowed never to buy one again. I installed my old one (same exact Bemis seat) years ago and completely forgot it even had a quick change feature. When it started to wiggle, I'd grudgingly get on the floor and tighten those annoying black plastic nuts from the bottom as I could, but couldn't get them much tighter. It would come loose again soon. I hadn't trimmed the wing edge at all so the wing hit the toilet and would get stuck. I swore my next seat would have a stay-tight feature, or metal hardware I could clamp down hard with a ratchet. I couldn't find a seat on Amazon the right size, color, and price. So I thought I'd get the same one, and order a tightening kit.I'm not convinced the seat needs a tightening kit-- or that the one sold on Amazon fits this exact seat. If you try it, please comment below. I really think tightening from the top lets you clamp it down hard enough that it shouldn't come loose very often. And it's easy to tighten when it does.I agree with many reviewers that this seat is the best value by far. Are these 1980's prices? And it's real quality, solid wood, old school. My old one never broke, and the new one is identical in every way. My old one was purchased somewhere around 2005, so it held up well. It did recently get a large chip in the finish, but something may have been dropped on it. Otherwise the finish held up well, not that anyone here pees on the seat.The seat color in the pictures is biscuit. Even though the Kohler toilet is almond. I guessed my toilet was biscuit, but you can see the biscuit is lighter. This Bemis seat does come in almond, looks like it would match, but not sure I want to bother. Kohler also has a seat in almond or biscuit. Pictures are lined up at the bottom, as the posting process would not allow them to be posted appropriately throughout the review.

A solid wood product. After installation of the mounting hardware it's easy on and easy off for cleaning. Couldn't be better!
