My color is fading and the seat has scratch marks.

It could be caused by the cleaner that you are using on your seat. Some abrasives can be
too harsh. No bleach. We recommend using soap and water or mild detergent. Never use bleach,
aerosol sprays, or scouring pads.

What is the bolt spread of your seats?
-
5 1/2" is the standard.

Do any of your seats come with a larger bolt spread?
-
American Standard models EL270, LC212, and NW209E10 have a 10" spread. Case brand models
800CCP and 1900CCP have a 7 1/2" spread that bolts into the tank. These can be ordered through
retail or wholesale outlets.

Do you carry any seats that have material, i.e., money, leaves, etc. embedded in the seat?
-
No, we do not make them.
-
When I pull the seat down, the lid comes crashing down with it. What causes that?
-
The hinge may be too tight. The hinge of the seat will loosen with repeated opening and
shutting of the lid.
-
Why don't you have two sets of bumpers on the seat?

What size is the insert for the Fashionable seat?
-
The insert is 10.25" wide and 11.5" long.
-
I put my seat on with the sticky washers and it still wobbles.
-
The washers are sticky on both sides. The paper should be removed on both sides so that one
side sticks to the toilet bowl and one to the underside of the hinge.
-
When I tighten the dial on the hinge all the way, it is still loose. Why?
-
The pintle on the underside of the hinge has two cut slots. Line the notches of the bolt up to
the cut slots and hold the bolt still as you turn the screw. The bolt will rise up and the notches
will push the pintle out to secure the seat.
-
Should hinges match color on all models?
-
Yes, but there may be a slight difference.
-
Why is the metal bracket for the PremEuro seat larger than the hinge holes?
-
Brackets are larger so that when you screw the bolt the bracket will imbed into the hinge,
holding the sides to make it an even more secure fit.
-
Does the My Own Potty fit on regular and elongated bowls?
-
Yes.
-
I just replaced my soft seat and it does not look the same.

The self-sustaining hinges are factory installed to maintain the longevity of the self-sustaining
component.
