Is the seat a molded plastic? I purchased a newer model and the seat is just made up of the lining. Wanted something a little more sturdy.

I wish it was a molded plastic in that I purchased 3 for the Neo-natal unit of a hospital. Disinfecting the covers is a big issue. My staff take them home to watch the covers (cloth) in between babies.

Since I had the seat installed for me, I can't answer about the material used. I can only say that after a year of use, I have had no problems whatsoever. I am a very large woman and have found the seat to be extremely comfortable and sturdy.

It's made of what feels like a dense foam rubber. The underside of the cushion has a rubber lining, so it will not slide on the seat. Fits my Airdyne perfectly!

They recently redesigned the seat to have a mesh back. Previous models had cushioned back seats, but if you buy a new model it will be mesh

the seat material is an embossed, skin-sufaced foam. It will crack over time and exposure and can be repaired 1) taping 2) slip-covered or 3) replaced.

It's more like a pressed wood, finished nicely. I have had for a couple of months and have had a lot of compliments. If you purchase, don't bother putting the hinges on that keep the seat up, don't need and pulled away from wood. The seat stays up just fine without. Took two people about 1 hour to assemble, it was easy.

It's made of plastic but it's durable. Thick plastic, not the flimsy kind. It's light to carry and made just right for sitting in garden dirt, and your posture sits better than with a stool. One warning- be careful not to flip!!

The seat you order will be different from any previously ordered. The manufacture date will be printed on the seat and on the paperwork that comes with it. I ordered my seat in August and it had been manufactured in May of this year.

It is definitely vinyl/plastic on top with a little bit of fabric on the sides towards the rear. Great seat, using it for the past three months!!

It's a plastic material. Waterproof yes because it's a potty seat. Porous I don't believe...

Its supposed to be made of the same material. However, i would assume there would be a bit kess padding as the seat is smaller. It is a very comfortable seat regardless.

Yes, it is a solid, sturdy plastic seat. I do not have a photo of the seat but it is a standard type of seat. I like the elongated bowl and seat which is not the typical design for an RV toilet. I sold the trailer it was mounted in and wanted to swap this toilet out with the toilet in the new trailer (that is how much I liked it!).

This seat wasn't as comfortable as previous Bell gel seats I have owned. Also, in my case, the seat ripped in the front the first time I used it. I should have returned it but I didn't use it until long after I bought it (as I still had a previous seat that was still in good shape). I would try a different Bell gel seat if I were you.

I'm not sure of the actual chemical make up of the seat but it's like a flexible plastic: firm enough to hold its shape but flexible enough to take in and out to wash. I hope that helps!

I think it's molded plastic. It's definitely not fiberglass otherwise it would've been $300-$400 like Eames brand

It seems to be made of a vinyl like plastic. I haven't had any issue with it but I don't leave my child in for that long , just for feeding times and occasional sitting and chilling
