American Standard 5503A00B.020 Transitional Elongated Toilet Seat Soft Close, White

This American Standard slow-close elongated toilet seat is exactly what I was looking for. The slow-close feature works perfectly — no more slamming lids — and installation was quick and easy. The seat feels sturdy, looks clean and modern, and is very easy to keep clean. Excellent value and a really nice upgrade for the bathroom. Highly recommend!

The good: I'm quite surprised that the seat is a perfect fit for the bowl and is very easy to install. It appears to be sturdy enough to withstand years of use. The lid and the seat close nice and soft which is quite important for us. Now the bad: Some other brands have silicone bumpers under the seat which prevent noise when someone sits down on it. This one doesn't. You can experience the noise if you watch the video. I can't see any ugly with it but the bumpers are quite important for us. Hope this helps you make an educated decision.

Perfect fit and easy to install

My husband installed this new toilet seat on our brand new American standard toilet and it is just what the doctor ordered as far as comfort, soft closing and it looks good. He had to break out the old phillips head screwdriver to get the screws to work correctly but not a big deal. The lever or handle used to flush the toilet doesn't seem exactly right - it's a bit janky... if that was operating the way it should this would have been a rating of a five.

I purchased American Standard 5503A00B.020 Slow Elongated Closed Front Toilet Seat to try with one my bathroom. This toilet seat has exceeded my expectations in quality, finish and comfort. Quality and Comfort: The build quality is outstanding—sturdy and well-constructed with a smooth finish that adds a touch of elegance to my bathroom. The slow-close feature is a game changer, eliminating the annoying slamming sound while still providing a gentle, controlled closure every time.

Aesthetic Appeal: The white finish complements my bathroom décor perfectly, giving the space a clean, modern look. It’s evident that American Standard has put great thought into both design and functionality. Overall Satisfaction: This toilet seat has not only enhanced the comfort and style of my bathroom but also provided a reliable and durable solution. I’m planning to buy two more covers for my other bathrooms because I’m happy with the purchase.

This seat is okay, not great but okay. I had recently purchased a nice wooden toilet seat. Had it about 2 months and dropped an almost empty can of air freshener on the ring of the seat and it split right in half on one side. At that point I just ordered an inexpensive seat from Amazon and as I stated, it's okay. It is slow close. It does fit perfectly on my oblong shaped toilet. But it is lightweight and kind of flimsy. But, I'm not spending the money on another wooden seat. I did purchase additional bolts or screws (whatever they're called) to replace the plastic ones that came with the seat. Those worked great.

The seat was easy to install and fit perfectly. The issue I have is that no matter how hard to tighten the screws down the seat still seems to slide. Not sure if the washers that were shown on the installation instructions, but were not included in the pack with the fasteners may be why the seat slides.

Materials are below standard. Bolts broke after 1st day. Not good quality.

The previous, original toilet seat on our American Standard Cadet toilet broke outright near the left hinge point after about 10 years of use. This was NOT a slow close lid. The new one is. Neither of them have a feature allowing quick detachment for cleaning like the more expensive lids do. I was quite surprised to see the old seat broken but, in truth, my wife was sitting on top of the lid, not the seat, drying herself after a bath when it happened. She said it suddenly twisted then broke and she almost fell to the floor. She's average height and weight. Regardless the manufacturer may have something to say like: Please don't sit on top of the lid, it's not designed for that. And I would agree with that. I expect that she leaned to one side or the other, while drying herself, and the feet under the lid slipped sideways causing the twist. The torque on the hinge would have been huge even for a person weighing 140 pounds so I don't blame the manufacture for this. I took a good look at the replacement I ordered and the plastic is much thicker around the hinge points so perhaps the manufacturer noticed and improved the design and hopefully this one won't break. The feet under the lid and seat also seem stickier than on the old one so twisting due to shifting weight seems less likely. I'll give it 5 stars for now :)

輸入住宅のため 色々なものが入手に手間が掛かります。 高いですが、 ネットで手軽に購入できて有難いです。

Resistente y me encanta su cierre silencioso

Se ve muy buen material.

Very sturdy, am able to sit on the lid without making a dent like the cheaper lids do!
