Centoco Round Toilet Seat, Heavy-Duty Wood Core with Plastic Scratch-Resistant Finish, Soft Close, Made in the USA, 700SC-001, White

I can't believe I'm so thrilled to write a review about a toilet seat hahaha. Plain and simple, this thing is the best of ALL worlds. It feels good and sturdy with some weigh to it like a wooden seat. It has all the durability, cleanliness, and long lasting appearance benefit of a plastic seat. I had a good feeling and working wooden seat BUT the enamel/paint was wearing off on top and on the bottom, was either showing signs of staining (yuck) or simply just losing color to have wood show through. So I go to buy a replacement but who know toilet seats were this freaking complicated. Plastic ones are thin, flimsy, and poor feeling. Wooden ones did not have the lifespan to due to PAINT wearing off and they stain. This guy is wood that is encased in plastic. Problems solved! Now lets talk about the slow close feature. Many reviews had me a little worried about the slow close feature on this seat. Let me tell you, there is nothing you practically need to worry about. I admit, this seats slow close feature is more like SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW close but it works. Importantly though, you can just give the seat a good "flick" to close and knock out like half the distance with 1 flick of the wrist and it will continue to do its slooooow thing hahhaa. I'm happy to report that there is no tough resistance to closing or anything like that. It just moves freakin slow. You can lower the seat to completely closed with no abnormal effort. Unless you need the seat to lower fast (why by a slow close in this case) you will not find a logical reason to worry about the speed of how slow the seat closes hahaha. Now on to the lid. It feels good and sturdy like a wooden one. I read a review where someone thought it was a flimsy plastic lid. This is not the case with the 2 I ordered at all. I just wanted to point this out so people concerned about the lid or sitting on it would have some accurate info about it. Installation was easy. Get a flathead screw driver and a pair of pliers or channel locks and done. I will say there is nothing fancy about the bolt or fastening mechanism. That seems to be a "feature" other toilet seat brands promote. In the end you really just need a nice secure and strong fasten that won't easily come lose. So far it hasn't come loose so this checks all the boxes. Some people talk about the 4 little rubber "plugs" that come with this. They go in the round holes on the underside of the hinge base. The base that sits flat on the toilet itself when you screw this in. No instructions come with this thing but knowing that should solve any questions as to "what are these and where do they go". After that it's self explanatory. Bolt to toilet, done hahahaha. In all I find this toilet seat to basically be everything anyone would ever need. And again, don't fret one bit about the slooooooooooooooooooooowness of the slow close feature. It's a non-issue... unless you like inventing issues where ones do not really exist hahaha

Quality material. Great price. Easy to install. Very sturdy. Easy to clean. Works as it should.

This toilet seat is an easy install, is comfortable and seems like a solid build. I knocked off a star because of how slow the closing is, it barely creeps to the closed position.

I have been struggling to find a sturdy (not lightweight plastic), easy to clean, and durable seat for a long time. I'd resorted to buying painted molded wooden seats (heavy composite wood). I was always disappointed with how quickly the paint wore off with light cleaning and use. This seat is perfect! Bc it's covered in plastic, but wood cored, it's actually easy to clean and durable! Nothing comes off! I'm thrilled!!!! I was replacing our seat every year or so but this seat seems like it will last. The soft close is really slow, but works. No slamming. I expect it will loosen w time. It works perfectly and will last. So happy!

Sounds very funny BUT: This is the nicest toilet seat Ive ever owned!👍Its solid/ heavy duty feel but with a beautifully colored (cream) veneer. Who would have thought such a thing would be so pleasing but it looks and feels nice! It replaced a really cheap plastic one with water stains, so yes!!! Im happy! PS I did not hear my husband swear while installing! So it was easy to install. I’d like to thank the company for making a nice-looking and durable product!!!

Well built easy to install all hardware there good fit

Well made and has sturdy stability. It's quiet – doesn't make noise opening and closing. We keep our toilet lids closed due to our cats' and dogs' cringy toilet water drinking habits and, when closed, you can sit on it without stressing it. Super easy to install, functions at it should and a value. It has a contemporary look to it, too.

Very good and sturdy and installs very easy. Lit closes slowly and dies it’s job on the throne👍👏💩

Should be 20mm shorter and 20mm wider to fit. Otherwise good quality manufacture and fittings.

More dimensions re fitting should have been published

Perfect fit on my very old low, elongated Crane toilet. Replaced an old, discoloured plastic version. This wood version is solid and doesn't have the "give" of plastic yet is very comfortable. We all feel well supported. Sturdy. Doesn't shift (it might with enough twisting and turning while seated, but in our family, we tend not to move around too much while we're focused on the job at hand). Perfect colour match (Crane white). Such an easy install. It actually took me longer to carefully (for fear of cracking them) pry open the hinge covers than to do the full install. That would be my only negative comment: the hinge covers are a softer plastic which felt like they could break off or crack easily if too much force was applied to open them, however, this issue would not stop me from buying again or from referral. With the seat well positioned and bolts tightened, I don't expect to need to play around with those hinge covers any time soon. Instructiions for the uninitiated were a bit sparse, but it's not rocket science. Nice feature to have the plastic/silicone(?) thin pads to place under the hinges. They probably go a long way towards keeping the seat in place. It's been in use for a few weeks now and we're still thrilled with it. I really mean thrilled - who knew? - and the old toilet looks brand new!

Super confortable, haute qualité, vraiment facile a installer et se ferme doucement 💯
