Covers for the toilet - how not to make a mistake with the choice?

Even literally a few years ago everything in our country was so uniform that problems like "how to decide" simply did not arise - the same furniture, the same plumbing, the same lids for the toilet ... But the present time we are so spoiled with abundance that it is sometimes very difficult to decide With what is best. And what do you really want. Even such seemingly trifling (but very necessary in the apartment), like a lid for a toilet, is presented in a huge assortment. And to help you make your choice, let's take a closer look at the details of the production.

So, first of all, it is worth paying attention to the material from which lids for toilet bowls are made. The cheapest option is a seat made of plastic. In principle, the option is quite good - quite convenient and easy to install, but very fragile and prone to scratches.

The next copy is made of duroplast. In principle, it is the same plastic, only more resistant to scratches. It is more durable, attractive appearance and even antibacterial effect, that is, it prevents the reproduction of microbes. The cover material for the duroplast toilet bowl looks like a ceramic surface, the appearance of such products does not deteriorate completely when using abrasive detergents. Naturally, the price in this case will be much higher.

Perhaps the cheapest option would be a seat made of plywood, which is almost impossible to break. However, such copies are almost never found in stores.

Covers for toilet bowls made of wood, particleboard or MDF - very heavy, so you need to handle them carefully, so as not to damage the toilet itself. And the appearance depends on the imagination of the manufacturer - there are options are very beautiful, but there is not much.

The most popular option - the seat of plastic, equipped with a foam pad. Well, it's very attractive, includes a lid, and as an additional plus - bright drawings and a wide range of colors.

The form in which the seat with the lid for the toilet is made may be the most diverse. Most often it is an oval, however, there are rectangles and products in the form of objects most unusual for this case (musical instruments, animals, etc.).

It is worth paying attention to the additional functions that are equipped with lids for modern toilet production. For example, the heated seat system. Very good addition for those who have a cold bathroom or in the house there are small children. Another nice bonus is the microlift for lowering the lid. Perhaps for some, this function may seem useless, but, as they say, the taste and color of a friend is not. Moreover, children often forget that the lid should be lowered. And microlift in this situation is very useful!

Well, the main criterion to rely on is, of course, the cost. Here everything depends on your financial capabilities. Not every one of us will get such an accessory for the bathroom and toilet, like a lid for a toilet, the price for which exceeds 10,000 Russian rubles. But it happens and more! In general, look, choose, buy and use for your own pleasure!
