THE BEST SEAT IN THE HOUSE
Toilet seats again. These didn't last two years. From Tru-Value.
The little bumpers were hollow and shattered slowly. When we got them there were also some blemishes in the finish.
So onto Lowe's on line. Filter the best, the wood, the elongated and we came up with Kohler or Church.
We chose Church. "The best seat in the house".
And they are. The bumpers are solid. The attaching hardware is totally minimal. Easy to clean. And the seat. Well, "the best".
Two things out of this. Value is not value very often.
Second, you can shop on line before going to the store to select what you want. This instead of being at the influence of a store employee of dubious objectivity.
Another thing. This is funny. I went to a site which told "how to pick a toilet seat". They said the most important part was to test sitting on it. Huh? Hard to do on line or in the store. But it makes sense.
Anyway we did the test after John installed them. Very good for long reading sessions. Or short.
