Toilet seats

Wooden toilet seats are also available, but more commonly you will find seats made from durable plastic, known as duroplast. The average lifespan of a toilet seat has therefore increased compared to earlier times. A toilet seat can last many years even under heavy use in a family household. Even greater durability is provided by soft-close technology – the seat will never slam against the bowl, as it gently lowers thanks to special hinges.

How to choose the right toilet seat?

Toilet seat dimensions

First, the size of the seat must match your toilet. Unfortunately, seats are not perfectly round or square and come in several dimensions. In fact, there are six dimensions, but when purchasing, you only need to consider three – width, length, and the so-called bolt spacing, which is the distance between the screws that attach the seat to the toilet bowl. Measure these on your toilet and choose a matching seat.

Special types of toilet seats

Not all seats are the same. In addition to standard seats, there are also raised toilet seats (for people with limited mobility), which make it easier for users to sit down. Manufacturers also consider younger users. There are children’s toilet seats – some with attractive designs to make learning personal hygiene fun for kids.

Design of toilet seats

When we mentioned themed toilet seats, it’s worth noting that adults also have access to creatively designed seats that differ from the standard white seats commonly used in most households. You can personalize your toilet, for example, with creative designs from the Aqualine Funny collection.

And it doesn’t have to be just images of palms, shells, or animals. We also offer toilet seats without designs, but in color. Customer favorites include black toilet seats, but gray, green, and blue options are also available.

Soft-close feature

We highly recommend toilet seats with soft-close, which now make up the majority of available models. This feature is not only about comfort and longer lifespan, but also enhances safety. Children cannot accidentally pinch their fingers if the seat is handled carelessly.

Toilet seat brands

SANITINO offers a wide range of manufacturers, including brands you may know from other sanitary categories. A large selection is available from Duravit, Geberit, Ideal Standard, Novaservis, Sapho, and Villeroy & Boch.

How to install a toilet seat

Once you have made your selection, you can proceed with replacing your toilet seat. It is very quick and easy to do, and anyone can manage it.
