What should I look for when buying a raised toilet seat?
When choosing a raised toilet seat, the height, weight capacity, attachment method, and shape of the existing toilet are particularly important.
The seat height should be chosen so that the user can sit down and stand up again as comfortably as possible. Models with armrests can provide additional support, especially for people with limited mobility.
Before purchasing, you should also check whether the raised seat is compatible with the existing toilet shape and how it is attached.
