Just a few years ago, everything in our country was so similar that the problem called "how to decide" simply did not arise - the same furniture, the same plumbing, the same toilet lids … But now we are so pampered with abundance, sometimes it's hard to decide which is better. And what do you really want.

Even such a trifle (but at the same time very necessary in the apartment), like a toilet lid, is presented in a huge assortment. And to help you make your choice, let's take a closer look at the details of production.

So, first of all, you should pay attention to the material from which the toilet lids are made. The cheapest option would be a seat made of plastic. In principle, the option is not bad - quite convenient and easy to install, but very fragile and prone to scratches.

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

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

Toilet lids made of wood, chipboard or MDF are very heavy, so you need to handle them very carefully so as not to damage the toilet itself. And the appearance depends on the manufacturer's imagination - there are options that are very beautiful, but there are also not very beautiful ones.

The most popular option is a plastic seat with a foam pad. Well, a very attractive look, includes a lid, and as an added plus, bright patterns and a wide range of colors.

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

It is worth paying attention to the additional features that toilet lids of modern production are equipped with. For example, the systemseat heating. A very good addition for those who have a cold bathroom or have small children in the house. Another nice bonus is the micro-lift for lowering the lid. Perhaps for some, this function may seem useless, but, as they say, there is no comrade for the taste and color. In addition, children often forget to lower the lid. And the microlift in this situation is very useful!

Well, the main criterion to rely on is, of course, the cost. It all depends on your financial capabilities. Not every one of us will purchase such an accessory for the bathroom and toilet as a toilet lid, the price of which exceeds 10 thousand Russian rubles. But it can be even more expensive! In general, look, choose, buy and enjoy!
