Toilet Seats for Every Bathroom

A toilet seat is an often overlooked but essential part of every bathroom design. They may appear pretty straight-forward, but there are many features and models available that will bring a spa-like quality to the design of the bathroom. Refresh the look of any toilet in your home by selecting a new seat with a soft-close lid, integrated night light, or handles for safety.

Elongated Vs. Round Toilet Seats

The first step in selecting a toilet seat is determining the size needed. The toilet design accommodates either a standard round or an elongated toilet seat. Elongated seats are slightly larger in length and width, making them a great choice for a master bathroom. If you are outfitting a child's space, a toilet with a round seat will be more appropriately sized for the little ones.

Open Vs. Closed Seat Fronts

Toilet seats come with two styles of fronts: open seat fronts and closed seat fronts. Open seats front wrap around the seat but feature a gap in the front center, mostly seen in public or commercial spaces. Closed toilet seats are by far the most common option in residential homes, and they wrap the whole way around the toilet for a continuous ring.

Features to Look For

Contemporary toilet seats come with a variety of features designed to pamper and add convenience. Some of the most common features include:

Soft-Close Lids

Special hinges allow the lids of soft-close toilet seats to close slowly and silently, which is a great feature in powder rooms, guest bathroom, and spaces commonly used by children.

Integrated Night Light

Those middle-of-the-night bathroom visits are easier when you select a toilet seat with an integrated night light. These lights bring a soft glow to the toilet bowl, making it easy to locate without turning on the harsh overhead vanity lights. This feature is a great addition to a master retreat or child's bathroom.

Bidet Functionality

Experience a new level of clean by trading out the existing toilet seat for one with a built-in bidet. This small device directs a clean stream of water where it is needed with a simple push of a button. Save on toilet paper and boost the personal hygiene routine with a safe and convenient bidet upgrade.

ADA Compliant Design

When mobility is limited, an ADA compliant toilet seat is essential. This style of seat can vary greatly in design, with some offering automated features, and others boasting heavy-duty handles on the sides. Toilets in a commercial space should feature ADA compliant toilets to accommodate the needs of all guests.

Heated Seats

Cold days and nights are no match for heated toilet seats. These self-warming seats are must-have items for cold climates and basement bathrooms.

Integrated Training Seats

Eliminate the need for clumsy training seats by purchasing a toilet with a flip-down training seat built right in. They match the look of the toilet seat design but offer a much smaller opening designed to accommodate toddlers. The training seat easily lifts out of the way when adults need to use the facilities.

Select a Color

The vast majority of toilet seats boast a clean white or off-white finish. For a little more flair, select a toilet seat with a black, gray, green, red, neutral, or even a wood finish. Match the seat to the toilet or choose something different for a two-toned effect to complement the design of the bathroom.
