Kohler 25876-96 Hyten Elevated Quiet-Close Toilet Seat, Biscuit, Round

The item arrived relatively quickly considering international carriers. The seat is useful and looks good but the hinge fitting are not that good and the rubberised fixing retainer allow movement compared to standard anchorage. This lets the unit down considering the purchase and fitting costs are well over the ton! This leads to another fault on the item sent in that the hinge anchor pin covers are over size and this causes them to lift off with the seat when removing. The principal of this release mechanism seen on seats a quarter of the price are far better and at least they remain in place. The quality assurance dept at the manufacturer need to be more vigilant when you are asking such high prices. The installation was straight forward and instructions satisfactory. However, the rubberised anchors are not great compared with standard ones and do not provide positive locks for the hinges. The removal for cleaning is irritating with the covers of the hinge coming off every time you lift it off. The fitter said it was a quality issue as these normally remain in situ. Overall the product looks good but grossly overpriced compared with similar items and quality issues of the hinge and anchorage needs to be addressed before any further consideration of purchase. This item is being returned as unacceptable

The Kohler Model 25875-0 Hyten toilet seat has allowed me to double the number of usable toilets in my 40-year old house and saved my knees in the process. Thanks to the elevated toilet seat, I can now sit on the toilet in my en suite bathroom and get up without struggling. The Hyten white elongated toilet seat arrived well-packed in its own box along with mounting hardware and clear pictographic assembly instructions. The toilet seat was shrink-wrapped in plastic and the hardware was sealed and bubble-wrapped. It took about 20 minutes to remove the old wooden toilet seat and install the Hyten seat. Fortunately, the instructions are very clear and detailed in 12 steps. The Hyten elongated toilet seat fit perfectly on my 40-year old Kohler toilet. The mounting anchors were easy to insert into the holes at the rear and the Kohler seat bumpers aligned and fit well onto the toilet bowl rim. The Kohler seat raised my toilet from a height of 14" to 17", which is nearly the same as a newer toilet in the guest bathroom, which is 17-1/2" high with the seat down. It allows my ancient knees to bend comfortably on the toilet and get up without struggling. Add to that, the modern appearance and fit of the Hyten toilet seat does not give the appearance of an elderly disabled individual, as another raised toilet seat I had purchased did. Both the Hyten lid and seat are quiet-close, eliminating slamming of either component. I especially like the quick-release button at the rear of the seat (circled in red in a photo) that permits you to lift the entire seat off the mounting posts at the rear for ease in cleaning. It feels quite stable and does not shift around while sitting on it and its design eliminates urine getting on the floor while a man sits on it, which was the case with the earlier raised seat. Kohler provides a one-year warranty on the Hyten seat and I frankly couldn't be happier with this purchase. It allows me to fully use this second toilet instead of having to purchase a newer raised version. My only regret is that the same model in biscuit color costs nearly twice as much, which would have matched my toilet much better. I award the Kohler Model 25875-0 Hyten toilet seat 5 stars along with my enthusiastic recommendation.

This toilet seat assists people with limited mobility access the toilet easily and with the extra height boost from this seat, they can stand up easily too.
