Raised toilet seats can help those who have difficulty sitting or standing alone, have low strength, or need assistance to use the bathroom. By reducing the distance between a standing user and the toilet seat, a raised toilet seat reduces the likelihood of falls in the bathroom. Before buying a raised toilet seat for yourself or a loved one, here are some tips to keep in mind.

1. Height of the seat. As the seat is higher, it will be easier for the user to move up and down the toilet. Measurements are critical, as raised toilet seats can vary in height. When measuring the correct seat height, measure the distance from the floor to the bottom of the user's knees, and then measure the distance from the floor to the height of the toilet seat.

2. The dimensions and shape of the toilet. While most raised toilet seats are standardized, determining the length and width of a toilet also requires measurements from end to end. The length should be determined according to the hole in the toilet. Also pay attention to the shape of the toilet for the best fit.

3. The presence of the cover. A raised toilet seat with a lid can be purchased. This is preferred for hygiene purposes.

4. Locking mechanism. Many raised toilet seats include a locking mechanism to prevent the toilet from sliding around when in use. Oceanwell raised toilet seat fixes securely with three side adjusters that give you great stability.

5. Load capacity. This is a very important consideration. Oceanwell raised toilet seat can support up to 190kg.
