Review on 6 Pack - Centoco 900-001 Elongated Wooden Toilet Seat, Heavy Duty Molded Wood With Centocore Technology, White by John Frazier

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Just right seat (not to heavy, not too flimsy)

Previously had a wood seat that made the heavy 'thunk' when it closed. Then the other bathroom got a Toto toilet that came with a soft close (safety close) seat, and I thought that was so much better. But that seat shifts when sat on, it's overly sculpted inwards so kids feel like they are falling in, and the lid was such a flimsy thin plastic that even the kids can't sit on it.This seat is the perfect in-between: Has the soft / safety close hinge, doesn't shift when sat on, not overly sculpted (although some may find it a bit on the flat side), and the lid is sturdy enough to sit on. It fit just right on our American Standard elongated toilet.The one thing that I would have preferred for ease-of-cleaning and for a more streamlined appearance when open, would be the seat lid to be made out of a seamless mold all the way to the hinge. Instead the lid is a separate piece that is screwed onto the hinge. I almost didn't buy it because the screwed on hinge makes it look somewhat. old fashioned. But I couldn't find a slow-close seat that had a sturdy enough lid to sit on, that didn't slip, and also had a seamless hinge. This one at least had the first 3.
