Types of Toilet Seats

The most important consideration is whether you are shopping for a toilet seat for an elongated or round bowl toilet. If you are looking for all the bells and whistles, try an electronic bidet seat. Color is also a pivotal consideration. White is the most common choice, but what shade of white? You should make sure to get a good match. A colored seat is a great way to liven up the room, and most colors will complement a white toilet if the rest of the bathroom design is cohesive. 

Material

There are three types of materials that are typically used to make toilet seats: plastic, wood, and polypropylene.

  • Plastic toilet seats are the most cost-efficient and are very durable. They are also offered in a wide variety of colors and types.
  • Wood toilet seats are sturdier and more comfortable. They do come with different stains, but also allow the consumer to paint the seat the color they may need or want. Wood makes excellent decorative toilet seats.
  • Polypropylene seats are becoming increasingly popular because they are sturdier than plastic toilet seats. They also do not soak up water. Polypropylene seats accept dyes more easily than most, allowing them to be available in an expansive range of colors.

Specialty Toilet Seats

For your replacement toilet seat, you may want to consider a specialty unit with high-tech capability. WASHLETs by TOTO and other bidet toilet seats are becoming more popular in today’s market. There are also raised seats, padded, and soft-close specialty toilet seats.

  • Illuminated seats are great for those midnight trips to the bathroom. When you turn on an overhead light, it wakes you up more and proves to be a devastating interruption to your sleep. With an illuminated toilet seat, you can't miss, and you don't need more light than it provides.
  • Bidet seats offer several different options/features, including heating, bidet cleaning, and sanitizing assistance. These are relatively expensive, depending on the model the consumer is interested in, but they offer numerous benefits that standard toilet seats do not provide.
  • Raised Seats are available to assist customers with arthritis or physical ailments that may make it difficult for them to get up from the seat.
  • Padded Toilet Seats/Covers are typically there for comfort.
  • Soft Close Seats are becoming more popular because they do not slam shut and are safer for children, preventing the seat from slamming into their fingers. Not to mention, they are great for master bathrooms where one person’s use can wake the other roommate.
  • Open-front toilet seats are typically used in commercial settings (men's bathrooms), but they are also a preferred choice for some homeowners.
