The Maddak Tall-ette Hinged Elevated Toilet Seat's Unique design features a seat riser made of 2 parts that are hinged together, allowing the ring to be lifted in the same manner as your regular toilet seat. The seat is installed using the existing toilet seat and lid (not included) and does not appreciably change the appearance of the toilet nor the decor of the bathroom. Elevates the seating position by 3" for a total seating height of 3" - 4" depending on the toilet seat being used. The additional height makes lowering to and raising from the toilet easier and safer. Ideal for anyone with limited mobility. The hinged design enables a person to easily clean under the elevated toilet seat. Supports up to 350 lb. (159 kg). Hardware kit included.
