Elongated Toilet | Elongated Toilet Seats

Elongated Toilet Seats

When buying an elongated toilet do not make the most common mistake of buying a standard toilet seat instead of an elongated toilet seat.  Toilet seats for elongated toilets come in different styles. You can buy padded elongated toilet seats or un padded seats.  Some toilet seats that are padded are really soft while others are really firm.

Elongated Seat Covers

A great accessory you can buy is an elongated seat cover, toilet seat covers are great as it hides the toilet set and even adds a decorative element to your bathroom.

Wood Elongated Toilet Seats

Wood elongated toilet seats may not be the best choice, if you are a little on the heavy side wood toilet seats do not hold up well, unless you buy a high quality one.

If you have a family member that is slightly older you could get a elongated toilet seat that is raised. These raised elongated toilet seats make it much easier for people to stand up which is ideal for older people with weak legs.

So you may be asking what companies make high quality toilet seats?

Kohler Elongated Toilet Seats

Kohler makes hundreds of high quality toilet seats, due to limited space here I will review some of the Kohler elongated seats that have received the highest ratings and reviews.

Kohler K-4636-0 Cachet Quiet Close

I actually wrote a full description/review of the Kohler K-4636-0 Quiet Close Seat.

This seat has some higher end features for a very reasonable price, it includes quiet clost functionality which will eliminate the slamming toilet seats.  It also has the quick release hinges which allow the toilet seat to be removed quickly and easily from the toilet allowing for fast cleaning.  Finally it is made of solid polypropylene which will hold up to years of use and is the best type of seat to resist staining.

    Hi Shirley,

    Unfortunately Walmart carries a lot of different stuff and merchandises them under different brands than the company who usually makes them.

    I wish I could be more help but based on my experience you will have a really hard time finding a matching elongated toilet seat cover. Good luck though!
