American Standard 5020A65G.020 Traditional Luxury Toilet Seat, Slow-Close, Elongated Front, White

Replaced my old American standard toilet seat with this. Seems slightly thinner material than what I had before but seems sturdy enough time will tell. Replaced cause old seat was wrinkling in the front middle of the seat after a few years plus one of the bolts was stripped so seat slide around. After cutting both bolts of old one and pushing that material inside hole this seat took not even 2 minutes to install. Lining it up and all was a breeze and the plugs went in so easily I doubt I needed to wet them in the first place. I paid 36.98 after taxes bought used like new one, looked brand new and well packaged. Comes with top and bottom mount installation parts.

I was tired of the finish coming off on the wood seat that came with the toilet and wanted the fit to match the American standard toilet we had. Fantastic seat for the money. Some complain that the install was hard, but it was super easy. 10 min install including cleaning the toilet! 10/10 would buy again!!! Excellent quality and soft close, very durable and not flimsy

We had an American Standard toilet with a soft close lid. The top lid spring failed allowing it to crash down in the night when the wife was using it. Once you have a soft close toilet lid, crashing lids at other locations are common for us. The wife said fix this! I looked an several different seats and finally chose this unit.The first thing I noticed is it is constructed from thicker material that the lid I replaced. I didn't check the weight of the seat against other lids but I recommend doing so to estimate how much material is in the product. Others said it was over priced but I don't think it is.As a novice, I was very confusted on top or bottom mounted seats. After a few youtubes I figured out the top mount is designed for those toilets that do not have bolts that are accessable from the side or bottom of the bowl. This unit comes with the mounts for either top or bottom mount. Since the current toilet is open on the sides, the bolts are easily accessable and I chose bottom mount.It installs quickly but it isn't clear what the rubber washer is to be on the bolt. I put it between the nut and the plastic washer. I assumed that that would provide resistance to the nut unloosing. We'll see if I'm right.

WOW! The price is 50% more than similar typically priced seats but I have to say it far exceeded my expectations in every way and then some. There is absolutely no comparing this seat to any that I have ever encountered. The quality is akin to a high end luxury car compared to an entry level sedan. It clearly is that much better! I have never seen a plastic toilet seat with such an amazing finish. I have worked in industry having extensive knowledge of injection molded plastic parts and I have never seen anything that comes close to the fit and finish of this seat. I honestly have no idea how they achieved such a finish. It is solidly built, has an amazingly ingenious top mount option with both sides connected to completely eliminate shifting, and is every bit 50% thicker plastic. It also has quick release buttons for super easy cleaning. It's just amazing especially since I never give reviews on anything but this product is so far above my expectations I had to speak up. I even included a few shots for you. It is hard to show but the quality difference is absolutely worth every penney extra I paid and a whole lot more.

Top mount hardware is easy to install but after a few weeks of seat use the seat loosens up considerately.The reason I replaced the old seat was for this same reason. would not tighten up at all. other than that the seat seems to be of good quality. Still not worth the price I paid and the side to side sliding makes for an unexpected ride. BTW the price of the seat was only $30.00 less than I paid for the entire toilet.

Seat is very nice, good weight, and comfortable, and the seat and cover automatically close slowly when lowered. The instructions stink. Main issue is that, for my toilet anyway (American Standard), the mounting piece referred to as the “hinge” has to be rotated 180 degrees from what the diagrams in the instructions implied to me. One of my photos shows the way I had to install the hinge. Because of this I had to remove the entire thing and reinstall; took over an hour. Other instruction issues: (1) after install I had 2 plastic washers left over (other photo), not referred to in the instructions; (2) instructions could have said one or two words about when to top-mount vs bottom-mount. Another issue is that when bottom-mounting (the case with most American Standard toilets), the screw, bowl plug, washer, and nut on one of the sides are extremely difficult to install, as the screw is short and the screw and other pieces are hard to reach and screw together.

This seat is a perfect fit for the Cadet Pro 1.6 gpf Elongated Toilet. The slow close mechanism works really well while also allowing you to keep the toilet seat up when needed for the standing business. The build quality seems strong. It is quieter than others I have purchased and doesn't squeak when closing. It's not too heavy, but not so light that it is flimsy. The system that secures it to the toilet prevents it from slipping and keeps it tightly secured without having to constantly tighten the bolts. I use these toilet seats almost exclusively in my premium long-term and short stay rental properties.

ordered this replacement seat . when it arrived , looked more complicated than my pay grade. a professional plumber was able to sort it out- but this unit was a new one for him . it gives you two options to install .he liked the seat, good color match , once in - more of a soft close type. nice design , but not as easy for the non-pro.
