E-Z Lock Toilet Seat: With Arms Review

E-Z Lock Toilet Seat: With Arms
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I recently purchased this item for my mother. It is an adequate height to provide additional comfort and convenience.The inner circumference of this seat extends deep enough into the toilet bowl that there does not appear to be any likelihood of waste splashing or leaking over the rim. However, the most important aspect which needs to be considered with these seats is safety and stability.None of the similar units I looked at securely lock to the existing toilet. It would seem to me that a design which allowed for bolting the raised seat to the toilet through the standard seat hinge holes would be far more secure.The design of the so-called locking mechanism on this Carex seat is a very narrow ridge at the back which fits under the interior rim of the toilet and, in the front, a narrow sliding clamp with a soft plastic face which presses against the inner surface of the rim.The front clamp is on a threaded plastic rod with a tightening knob on the front of the seat.These provide some friction, at best (consider that the interface is plastic on ceramic), and can be dislodged with very little pressure.When getting on or off the toilet, if uneven weight is placed on any portion of the rim, it is very likely the unit will tip, creating a significant fall risk.The addition of the arms magnifies the hazard, as they provide additional leverage.I would strongly suggest that for safety one of the external frame units with a commode seat would be far more appropriate. (Note that this is an edited and much more negative revision of my original review of this item, based on more experience in use. Also, note that if the patient has a documented medical condition affecting their stability, Medicare may pay for an external frame unit.)

We put this in our bathroom every time my 85-year-old mother comes for a visit.It is durable and of good quality.She loves it, but we wish it came with a seat lid.My husbad put one on himself from another toilet seat, using velcro strips on the back side of the elevated seat.

Carex E-Z Lock Rasied Toilet Seat with Arms Review

I'm an otherwise healthy 39 year old male who has a serious case of degenerative disc disease which eventually resulted in a 2 level spinal fusion to help eliminate debilitating pain. Nobody recommended this seat, but I though that getting up from a toilet after surgery may be difficult. Boy was I right! This seat did the trick - Provided enough height and support to help during the difficult recovery period. I was so happy with this product that I went ahead and ordered another one. Now I'll have one for upstairs and one for downstairs. No need to move it around during the day.

excellant purchase, shipment, price, etc...purchased last minute prior to total hip replacement...if there is any draw back to this seat it is because I am a big person and I could use elongated seat with front opening...but this seat is beats all, even the higher priced models...

Improving Lifestyles Tall-ette Raised Toilet Seat Arms and Legs 400lbs capacity Review

Improving Lifestyles Tall-ette Raised Toilet Seat Arms and Legs 400lbs capacity
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We have a small bathroom, which I as a nonmechanically inclined person had to fit out to accommodate my husband who came home finally from the skilled nursing center after having his left foot amputated. I was able to easily fit the unit together, and it took just seconds to link it to the toilet. It raises the level of the toilet seat four inches, which he found sufficient (I'd looked at other types of raised toilet seat/rails combinations that added five inches, but required a more complicated installation). We're both larger-than-average people, so there's a slight feeling of "squinchiness" when sitting, but that can easily be alleviated by removing one of the rails (he only needs to use one), which actually can be done while seated. With a little practice, he has gotten to the point he can use the unit safely by transferring from a walker without my assistance or supervision. It's also easy to clean, and because of the quickness of installation, could certainly be tucked in a car trunk for traveling.

Yes, it costs more than some other raised toilet seat/rail combos, but I've definitely found it worth every penny, especially for someone like me who needed to create a safe toilet without wrenches or pliers.
