Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was in desperate need of a new toilet seat and shopped for 2 months trying to figure out what to buy so I wouldn't waste my money on crap. Again. (Dear goodness, the toilet seat market is in desperate need of something - anything - resembling durable, long-lasting quality.) Finally my old wood seat was spewing sawdust every time I closed the lid and it had to go. I crossed my fingers and ordered this one because Bemis is the last manufacturer making any kind of quality plastic seat. I know that because I was checking out the brand names on commercial toilet seats that were holding up well at the places where I was locally shopping! I figured it could be returned if it showed up all flimsy and cheap. It is a sturdy toilet seat. It fit my standard round toilet perfectly. I'd read numerous reviews of people complaining about going from a wood seat to a thin plastic seat and I was worried. Let me tell you, it is AWESOME. First, the seat does feel different at first but man, oh man, you cannot beat the feeling of actually getting your seat clean without taking off half the paint. I use natural cleaners (essential oils, water, rubbing alcohol, etc) which pretty much strip the tissue-thin white paint off a wood seat within the first month. I was soooooo fed up with wiping up wet saw dust from my crumbling wood toilet seat made of MDF. wood glue and prayers. This one is a million times better looking and easier to clean. And I don't even take it off it's hinges. M husband installed this for us and said it was so easy and he liked it so much that he wants our master bathroom toilet seat replaced as soon as the elongated seat is back in stock. Look, I'm picky. I want my home to look nice, sparkling clean and well-kept. I can honestly say that this seat is working out better than I thought it would. I've had it for over a month and I'm pleased with it. I know toilet seats don't last forever but the first plastic set lasted about five years and the wood set was maybe 2 years. I'm never going back to wood!
