Vaunn Medical Elevated Raised Toilet Seat & Commode Booster Seat Riser with Removable Padded Grab Bar Handles & Locking Mechanism

Great for injured or older folks that still want to maintain some level of independence. I purchased this for my dad and it was a big help. Having this allowed him to remain more independent for years. I would recommend this for those injured, incapacitated, or older folks. Set-up is pretty easy and provides a few extra inches that makes a differences from being self-sufficient vs. needed assisted care. And honestly, who wants someone hovering when they are trying to use the restroom.

The product itself is wonderful - right size, easy to put together, However the shipper (FedEx) damaged the unit. The seller did allow for return. Great seller by the way. I’ve asked to be notified once more in stock.

My mother had bilateral knee replacement surgery, and this was one of the equipment I was told to purchase. It was easy to install, feels very comfortable, and sturdy. The thickness holds up weight well, it does not bend. It fits over the bowl perfectly and stay in place using the dial at the front. The handles even though they are plastic they hold up well when using them to stand up. Perfect design. It has been several months since surgery, and it is still in use and holding up well.

My toilet is short. Definitely not "comfort height". I needed something to enable me to use my toilet after having a total knee replacement and this seat worked pretty well. I liked the width and height of the padded grips and the seat itself was comfortable. It was really easy to install on my 16.5 inch (front to back) round toilet without having to remove the existing toilet seat. What I did not like was the lateral stability wasn't the greatest. If you do not use equal pressure with your arms when rising the seat tips. It never fully came off the commode but if you have balance issues it definitely leaves you feeling unsteady. Also, the seat has no lid on it. If you are looking for a long term booster seat I would consider a seat that bolts onto the existing toilet instead. For short term use this seat is a very good option.

Recently had a surgical procedure that prevents me from bending and lifting for several weeks. Post op this easy to install sturdy seat has been a God send. Those who complain of shifting may need to retighten over time with use, but I have found the seat very stable. It may not be super suitable for those with wide hips. However, I have had no problems with the width allocation of the arm rests. In terms of leakage, there has been none. The seat cleans easily, and I may just leave it in place following my recovery as it is comfortable and easy to use with a squatty potty. Greatly useful product!
