Just how Great Can a Toilet seat be? 6 Stars
I don't often think about rating a Toilet seat but in this case I can't give it more than 5 stars and I would if they would let me. About 6 months ago I noticed our old toilet seat in the downstairs bathroom was grungy and the paint was starting to crack so I went to the hardware store and bought a replacement. Our old one was plain, white, wooden so I decided to spice things up a little and I bought a walnut wooden seat. Well you would not have guessed it but my Wife and Daughter both thought it was horrible. It just didn't look right. Being the man of the house I put my foot down and said "your just going to have to learn to like it." As time went on I found I didn't like it either. Because of the way it mounted, it wouldn't stay on tightly and every time it started to loosen up I had to stick my head down in that general area in order to reach the hardware to re-tighten it.
This week I order this Mafair 13-000 soft seat.
Well, the only complaint I can come up with is that the description doesn't emphasis that you can turn two locking mounts and REMOVE THE ENTIRE SEAT for easy cleaning. The mounting system is genius (and I'm an Engineer so it takes a lot to impress me!) In addition, it's soft, its warm, it mounts the first time very easily and, as I said, it's easily removable for cleaning the toilet.
What more can a person ask for a toilet seat? "Honey, bring me a book, I might be here awhile!"
PS my wife and my daughter love me again.
