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 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.

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!

I'm 5;11'' and had knee surgery. This product raised the toilet seat height enough for me to be able to get on and off pretty easily. You must have side handles to push against for leverage and safety. It solves one of the many, many problems encountered after surgery.

I've purchased 3 of the Carex 5 inch toilet seat risers. They last between 12 to 18 months on average (then they crack). Some may not last that long. They have a very short warranty, so you can't depend on that. Assume that this is a year to a year and a half product with average use. No one over 180 pounds has used them in our house.So, this time I purchased the 5 1/2 inch model. You would think they would be exactly the same, except for the extra 1/2 inch of height. But, the 5 1/2 inch model is made BETTER than the 5 inch model. Right now, they're about the same price on Amazon, but even if the 5 1/2 inch is a few dollars more, it is worth it. It is the better unit. It appears to be a thicker molded plastic.and seems to fit more securely on my elongated toilet.I'm going to address something that most people probably don't consider before purchasing an elevated toilet seat riser. DO NOT attempt to wipe yourself while sitting on the toilet. You need to stand or lift yourself off the riser to wipe yourself. If you attempt to do it while sitting on the riser, the chances are that the riser will SHIFT and you could FALL. It's not just this seat riser. If you read through the reviews, you'll find a lot of people stating they've had falls or near falls. It's going to happen. Unless you have a toilet seat riser that is very securely attached (which this isn't), don't even attempt it.I recommend this seat riser and I recommend it over the 5 inch model that Carex has. As I said, I've owned a few of the 5 inch models, so I think I can compare them pretty well and this one is better. It's like the 5 inch is the "Standard" model and this is the "Deluxe". They'll both do the job, but I prefer the Deluxe.Time has value and I thank you for taking the time to read my review.

It works fine.

Needed this product after knee replacement surgery. But since I was going to my daughter's house for two weeks, then my own, I needed one tall enough to work, but that would fit a round toilet seat and an oval seat.This was perfect!! I couldn't be happier about this purchase!! It was a life saver!!Excellent product!!

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.

Excellent medical product. Bought 1 more for the guest bathroom
