When you lift up the toilet seat, how does it not lean forward with a bar going across the back?

The bar is low enough that it doesn't interfere with the lid of my toilet. The legs are adjustable for bar height.

it will fall if it's not fitting properly. I have an oval toilet, & needed to cut out a piece at the floor section so it fits nicely.

one of my toilets it fits fine with no contact of the lid, and the other, the base of the toilet at the floor won't let it go back far enough for the bar to go all the way back to touch the tank so I have to open lid, and seat before it's in place.

Good Day...this unit is incredibly stable. The only function of the bar across the back is lateral stability between the left & right sides. The gray foot piece also adds to the forward-to-back/back-to-forward stability. Our parents continue to use the Windsor, now for convenience rather than necessity. This unit is very easy to move away from the toilet for cleaning and storage. This unit is done "right", highly recommended.

The holes in the porcelain bowl where the seat is bolted through are approx. 1 & 1/2" inches from the tank. When the lid is up and against the tank we still have a gap from half way down the tank and to the bottom. The bars from the Windsor aid fit in the gap between the tank and lid. The lid and seat when up will stay in place on ours. This product has been a great aid. It folds up if you store it or it can transport to other locations easily.

I bought this for my 88 year old Dad who is very happy with it. There is plenty of room for the lid to open

The bar is not further out than the toilet lid. The seat hits the lid like it usually does

There is sufficient room between the seat and the tank to allow the seat to be raised. This is a very good product.

The seat does not lift up, but you put your own toilet seat on top of it and the opening is about that size.

Ruby, the hole in the seat is fairly large. I myself have the solid one, but have to use a mechanical assist to wipe, so it really does not matter. I would think that the open front would allow greater access to the front area. I absolutely love this toilet seat. It provides an amazingly comfortable sitting experience. I would highly recommend this product. Please be aware that the seat itself is heavy. I was surprised at how heavy it was. At least I am assured that it will never crack or break!

There's handles that are raised on one side. You can easily turn it over for the handles that's are level with the bar.

I am not completely sure of the exact nature of your question? Are you asking about the brand, the model, the style or the material? My only experience has been with the Bemis elongated and round toilet seats made from molded wood. They do not shift "off center" provided they are securely fastened. Sometimes in cramped quarters that can be a little bit of a challenge. Just make sure you have enough "finger strength" or appropriate tool to tighten the "nut" that secures the seat to the bowl.

no, have to put the seat up and put riser directly on top of toilet. Works great.

The front of the toilet bowl. You lift the cover and the seat prior to installing.

The bar is located across the top of the spa cover. One half of the cover is manually opened and folded back over the bar. Then then cover is manually pushed lifted backwards.

It tilts back if you lean back. It's not a full recline. The bar locks it upright if you don't like the feature.

The handle under the seat secures the seat in the desired position. Once you set the height and the direction you want the seat to face, you secure the handle so it doesn't move. Great product. Hope this helps, Vince

I had to remove my toilet seat. If you don't, the raised seat will be unsteady. There are two small Velcro strips that are suppose to prevent the seat from moving but I find these useless. I replaced those strips with much stronger Velcro strips found in any hardware store.

All toilet seats are held in place by friction resulting from being bolted down. A seat will tend to shift off center when one or both the hold-down bolts are not tight enough. Therefore, there's no toilet that will not shift if not properly tightened down. The Bemis has a well designed hinge mechanism if only they would include a comprehensive instruction sheet with it.

No that bar that you can see does not interfere with the seating area. It's where the chair fold. The seat and back fabric are supported by support posts on each side...so there is not anything across the back or along bottom where your legs rear. So yes very comfortable and worth the money...built to last and much better than cheaper alternatives.

I had the same problem. I replaced the balance bar and it helped a little. In time I just had to learn nothing perfect. U can Google it to. They call it the toilet bowl effect

When you raise the seat there is a storage area and a bar for locking the seat in the up position.On the side is a round knob. When you spin it, the seat adjusts up and down - you can't really see the lever unless you get on your hands and knees.

the seat lifts up towards the backing; the support bar moves forward and back. Not the most stable, but does the job. (seats fold flat)

No.As long as all your lifting is straight up, an you don't tilt the toilet. It's obviously a lot harder/heavier to do this way. I have left a toilet connected before, and the weight of the tank cracked & broke the bowl as I handled it.I recommend removing the tank because I install differently. I don't use the cardboard crush ring. It's easier and I feel better about knowing the gasket is sealed by pressing the rubber ring onto the bottom of the toilet so that it sticks and the plastic is hanging off the porcelain. Then I lift the entire toilet to push the gasket into the floor. No.As long as all your lifting is straight up, an you don't tilt the toilet. It's obviously a lot harder/heavier to do this way.
