Soft-close loo seats - is it too much to ask?

[lazybloke]

Do you have lazy ass boys whom piss all over the seat ? I’ve found that too be the main issue with these moving . Tried to convince them to just sit down and pee !

Hell no, I only have one son, but he's been trained since birth to treat bathrooms with respect.


As for the dodgy loo seat, I found a Woltu product that soft-closes, doesn't have the "rotational issue" with the mounts (difficult to explain that without a diagram) . Suffice to say it has a simper and apparently bomb-proof mounting system, with no need for glue , silicone or other sticky pads.
Looks like wood, but seems too light to be either real or manufactured wood, so I'm guessing it's plastic. On reflection, that's fine by me.

Have had the same problem in the past. Bought an MDF one last year from Ikea and it’s been fine. Much better hinge design but only in painted finish so might not fit your criteria

How did this pan out OP?

Pun intended.

See post #17. A Woltu loo seat from Amazon is now doing a fab job.
It has an old-school fixings to the pan; simple and effective. Had it a few weeks with no hint of unwanted movement.

Maybe I'll come back in 6-12 months to give a "long service review".

Sorry - I should've read back the thread.

May you have many happy hours on your new loo seat. 😁
