Tools and Hardware Reviews of Mayfair 48E2 Slow Close Toilet Round Seat with Lift Off Hinge, White Wood
Customer Review: Too slow for me -- and still bangs on the way up...
Summary: 3 Stars
I live in a hi-rise apartment and after replacing an old perfectly fine toilet seat they damaged, the management put in an extremely cheap wooden one. Within a year it chipped and peeled and stained from the toilet cover rug I used. They finally after 4 years replaced it with the cheapest most uncomfortable piece of plastic -- it was so bad I just had to buy a seat for myself (and this is an expensive hi-rise and I live in the penthouse.)
After doing the usual Amazon search, I decided on this Mayfair. I liked the idea of the seat not banging when closed. My partner gets up several times a night to use the bathroom and I have been trying to train him to close the seat afterwards -- typical male-female quandary.
So I got this seat. It is comfortable enough though not exceptionally so. But the seat takes forever to come to a close, I like the seat to be closed while flushing and if you just give a normal tap it would take over 5 minutes to close.
I've decided just to force it to close -- it still takes a couple of minutes to close the last inch or so -- but I wonder if my forcing it will wear out the slow mechanism.
Funnily enough when you open the seat it gives a louder than normal bang -- so that is quite a trade off and basically neutralizes its advantage,
I solved this however by putting on a thick toilet seat cover rug. I use one any way as it is part of the decor of the bathroom. But I don't use a toilet seat cover in my other bathroom. Fortunately that still has the old toilet seat so it looks fine and is actually more comfortable than the Mayfair.
One comment on the reviewer whose critique was rated "most helpful.'I too had problems with tightening it down and the seat sliding. It turned out that I did not have the head the screws aligned correctly. Once I corrected that -- it was extremely tight no slipping or sliding. But it is not obvious that is the problem -- and it is hit or miss if you get everything lined up right. I assume with practice -- it will become easier.
I don't regret the purchase but I wish it were better designed.
