Carex Toilet Seat Riser, Adds 5 Inches of Height, Elevated and Raised Toilet Seat with 300 lbs Capacity, Standard Riser for Elderly and Handicap, Universal, Slip-Resistant, White

I honestly do not know what we would have done without this toilet seat riser after my mom, who’s in her 70s, had knee surgery. The only bathroom downstairs in her house is quite small, so there would not be enough space for someone to help her off of the toilet, but she was able to take the walker and push it all the way to the tank of the toilet, so the front of the walker was behind her, and then let herself down with the handles on the walker, but she did not have to go down, but like 2 inches. She needed this for the first week or so after surgery. My parents have a My parents have an oval toilet seat, and this worked well! Thank you!

Excellent….did not move at all on the seat.

I recently took this elevated toilet seat on my vacation and I purchased it specifically for travel use so I thought I'd share my experiences with it. I was on an airplane trip and the seat fit in my checked luggage (24") though it does take up some space for other things. I have bad knees but handicapped accessible hotel rooms, while having ADA height compliant toilets, often have very low beds which are difficult for me to use. This toilet seat allowed me to be in a regular hotel room and still accommodate my disability.The first hotel room I was in had a standard elongated toilet. The seat fit perfectly (with the regular toilet seat up) but you need something at the back to keep it from sliding backwards. I took a couple newspapers and rolled them into a cylinder and placed it between the back of the toilet and the elevated seat. This kept the elevated toilet seat in place and it was solid for use. I did not experience any movement or slippage of the seat sitting directly on it--if you move your weight substantially to the sides you would have tipping but that is the same with my permanent elevated toilet seat at home. The second hotel room I was in had an atypical shaped elongated toilet. It was much more round in the middle than a standard one. This elevated seat still fit (with a brace at the back) but it wasn't quite as stable. I did not have any difficulties however--you just had to make sure you weren't too rambunctious in moving around when using it.I found that this elevated seat is also pretty easy to clean. I washed it in the shower with the hotel shampoo that I never use. I then dried it and used Wet Ones wet wipes to thoroughly disinfect it. If you are on a car trip you could easily bring a spray bottle of disinfectant instead. The elevated seat fits in this duffle bag that I purchased here on Amazon (40L capacity) so it canbe carried discretely with your other luggage. A bonus is that there is also room left in the bag for your dirty laundry or shoes. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FDYNR5M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1. I did place the cleaned elevated seat in a large garbage bag before placing it in the duffle (it all fit just fine).I decided to not bring the elevated seat back with me in my luggage--its cheap enough to be a throwaway item. But I did purchase another to keep at home for car trips and that one I plan to reuse several times. I haven't used the seat on a regular round shape toilet yet but I am certain it would work with that style also. Its possible there are some atypical shaped toilets out there that may be an issue (like the one I experienced) but I would think most hotels will have a standard style.Hope this all helps someone out there....

This toilet riser could not be easier to use - take it out of the box, lift your toilet seat/lid, put the riser into place. It fits easily and barely moves around. Perfect for anyone who has mobility issues or needs a higher toilet seat without the expense of replacing your whole toilet.I have two complaints, which I'm taking off one star for both combined.One, it would be VERY helpful if this had a hole/scoop/indentation at the front to make reaching down to wipe oneself easier, or especially if you are a caregiver for somebody else.Two, while the seat is wide/firm (great!), it makes the hole into the toilet smaller, so if things are ... messy, then you'll find yourself cleaning the riser more often than expected. If I was designing this, I would make it with an interior curve so that the seat is the same but the interior walls give more space to do one's business.Overall, however, two thumbs up. Has been extremely helpful to get the extra lift for the toilet after double knee replacements.

This toilet seat raiser saved my aching knees!! It provided the height to lift up off of it easier. The material is very sturdy. Love it!@×

It is easy to install as it goes right from the box onto the toilet rim. The height is perfect from the walker to the seat, but the opening is not big enough. Extremely hard to clean yourself after doing your business.

Perfect fit

I bought this because it was cheap and would deliver quickly. I bought a bigger more expensive one that’s essentially a walker with a seat on it that goes over the entire toilet but it was going to take several days to deliver and I needed immediate relief of pain for my L4 injury so I bought this to use while waiting for the other to deliver and honestly I debated on cancelling the more expensive one because this one immediately reduced the pain of going to the bathroom.I didn’t cancel it because the other one had bars I could hold onto to assist with standing but honestly this seat is so good. Especially for how fast it delivers and the price. I would absolutely recommend it and I was grateful to have it when traveling recently to see family for the fourth.
