Toilet Seats

Toilet Seats are those with added features. While most of us take our bathroom seats for granted and think of them as things that are necessary, but not useful for anything other than keeping our rear ends from falling into the toilet, there are seats that go above and beyond the basic call of duty.

Consider the heated toilet seat. If you live in a hot climate, you might think that there is no reason to have a heated throne. But if you live where the temperatures plunge in winter, you know that sitting down on a cold seat is something that never fails to shock your entire body. So heated seats do have a place in the world.

Check out the Toasty Tush Seat Warmer. It is an attachment that heats your nathroom seat, and is easy to install. The Brondell Breeza Warm Deodorizing Seat is a seat that not only heats, but starts deodorizing as soon as pressure is detected on the seat, so you get comfort, plus you don't have to worry about odors.

For those who aren't into using harsh toilet paper, and irritating the more delicate areas with wiping, a bidet bathroom seat is a good idea. Bidets use a stream of water to gently clean you when you're finished using the toilet.

Some bidet chairs, like the Coco Bidet 6035R will also air dry your tush and send a spray of deodorizer into the air so that both you and your bathroom are clean and fresh afterward. If you prefer, the Luxe Bidet MB210 Fresh and Hot Water Bidet Attachment can easily be installed on your bathroom throne and works well to leave you feeling fresh and clean.

Speaking of bidets, here's a neat bathroom seat idea: The Washlet. The Washlet is a toilet seat that pretty much does it all. It works as a bidet, virtually eliminating the need to use harsh toilet paper, has a SoftClose hinge system that keeps the seat from slamming down, and on top of that, the seat is heated too. Finally, the water nozzle, which works to help keep you clean with soothing warm water, also cleans itself before and after it is used. This is truly a seat that does it all.

Another great idea is antimicrobial toilet seats, which are among the best-selling top seats today. Antimicrobial seats such as the Mayfair Toilet Seat with DuraGuard Antimicrobial Agent inhibits the growth of unhealthy bacteria on the toilet seat. This is a wonderful feature even if you are the type who cleans the toilet seat regularly. Let's face it, toilets are breeding grounds for bacteria, and if you can get a toilet seat that actually inhibit the growth of bacteria, that's a good thing!

Some people might scoff at the idea of having a bathroom seat that has added features. But it's good to know that if you want some of the extras, you can get them. There is certainly nothing wrong with using a bidet. In fact, having a bidet toilet seat is very sanitary and will keep you much fresher than wiping with toilet paper. And with seats that are heated or that feature an antimicrobial coating, you're getting the assurance of added comfort and sanitation. Nothing wrong with that!
