We moved into a new house and all three toilet seats would consistently become loose which was very iritating. I tried several options to fix the problem, and none of them worked. Until I found this. Initially, I purchased one and tried it. After having it work, I purchased two more. The product is like training wheels for your toilet seat. It can't slip to the side if installed properly.I saw several low ratings because the screw was too long and stuck through the seat. Yes, if the screw is too long for the seat thickness it obviously will. But, I think the larger issue is that you probably shouldn't be using power tools for fear of hurting yourself if you didn't measure the seat thickness compared to the screw length!So, probably won't work on a plastic seat since the ones I have seen are thin. The seat does need to be thick, i.e., wood. Read more

I don't normally discuss bathroom issues, but it is very unnerving to slide sideways while taking care of business. This is a very handy invention for modern society. After going through several toilet seats, and getting tired of slipping and sliding off my perch, I knew that there had to be a better way. Why toilet seat manufacturers do not include seat stabilizers, I will never know; but I am sure that in some unrecognizable way, this invention has saved my life.The installation of these Safe-T-Bumpers was a little finicky, however it was not difficult. It is best to start with a clean or new toilet seat, and connect the bumpers to the toilet seat with the included rubber band. Next, set the seat down on the toilet bowl and adjust the bumpers so they sit within the bowl. Finally you can lift the seat, and permanently attach the Safe-T-Bumpers with the included screws, as long as you don't drop a screw in the water! (You can still attach with that screw, but you may get a little wet)After using this product, I have not had to purchase another toilet seat, or tighten the bolts connecting the seat. A recommended purchase for every household. Read more

Quick release toilet seats seem to have a weakness with the locking catch and weak hinges. The brand I bought would pop off once in awhile and then the toilet seat was would twist because it was loose and had to be reconnected. Eventually the hinge broke. Church was the brand and there was no replacement hinge that I could fine. I took a standard hinge and adapted it to the toilet seat but the quality was so poor the first time I used it it snapped and broke. The second time I bought metal hinges which are much more substantial. I saw the little L brackets shown on the same page. It was an excellent answer to help stop the toilet seat from twisting which puts all the pressure on the hinges. The toilet seat no longer twist and the metal hinges are nice and solid and a good solution. Plastic is use to make these parts mostly and they are strengthened by adding nylon to the mix. The hinges seem to be mostly plastic with a little nylon but not enough. The L bracket seems to be made of more nylon and it’s strong. Also I noted there are a lot of people selling toilet hinges so it must be a massive problem. The L bracket is excellent answer to stop the problem of breaking hinges. Read more

The wobbly seat that was sliding sideways is now perfectly still. This is a truly awesome product! I am pretty sure that any negative feedback this item received was from people who did not install it properly. I highly recommend! Read more

Bought for my elderly mother after asking her maintenance several times to secure her toilet seat. Everytime she sits down it slides from side to side and starting to slide backwards. They couldnt seem to get her seat secure for more than a day or two. I went to Amazon searching for a solution and I found it!! This stabilizer came with rubber bands which was an ingenious way for them to guide customers of all skill levels (including none) how to properly attach. I had them on within 5 minutes and they completely secure the seat from sliding. It's been over 2 months since I placed the stabilizers on her seat and she hasn't had any sliding. 100% satisfied and I am ordering one for myself tonight! Read more

I am sooooo happy I purchased this. As a renter I was tired of constantly slipping on the toilet seat. After purchasing a new seat I realized the actual seat was not the problem. This creative invention solved my problem! No more slip and sliding! Easy install. I am also a special education teacher and if you have a child who like to slam the toilet seat or play w it. This will prevent that! Read more

These are the best invention for the bathroom. I hated having the seat slide when I sat down and if you're elderly it could become a safety issue. I asked a plumber who was doing work at my house if there was anything to remedy that and he said no. Well, turns out he is wrong. Shortly after that I saw these online and figured they were worth a try. WOW! Seat no longer shifts when I sit on it! The are super easy to install. I'm over 60 and a female and had no trouble installing at all. Of course, you need to predrill the holes. I've had these for months now and they are fantastic. Can hardly say enough good about them. If you are considering these by all means don't hesitate any longer. You will be so glad you did. Read more

We were replacing toilet seats every year or so, because they would break near the hinges from people moving around on the seat. I don't remember how I stumbled on these a few years ago, but they've been a godsend. What a simple, great invention! No more loose, distracting seating. No more broken hinges. As such, I think it's safe and accurate to say these not only benefit your pocketbook, but also your health. When we are sitting on the toilet, we need to be able to concentrate on the task at hand and not be distracted by loose toilet seats.For what they are, these are pretty expensive at five dollars a set. But for the idea itself, and how easy it is to install, and how well it does the job, the dollar trade-off is worth it. Also, taking into consideration the money saved by not having to replace broken toilet seats anymore, one comes to the realization that there are some things in life you just can't put a dollar value on.

I bought these as I thought they are a good idea, what they don't tell you is they only fit onto a wooden seat! I have a thin moulded plastic one and they don't fit it as you have to screw them on, if I did that the screws would come through seat! So I thought I'd return them, no, they wouldn't allow me to even though I didn't open the package! Read more

Bought this as Toilet seat was very wobbly both upstairs and downstairs toilets so bought two packs they where a bit fiddley to install but once on they have now stopped the Toilet seat from moving as more stable why don't these actually come with the toilet seats when you buy then from new. Problem sorted. Read more

If you remove your bumpers/buffers under the toilet seat and replace with rubberised ones, the seat will never move once there is any weight on it (i.e. when sat on) because of the friction between the ceramic toilet and the rubber. Read more

I bought this a few months ago because our bathroom is really tight so the toilet is really awkward to get into the back to tighten the seat so it was constantly moving and breaking the pins. bought a new seat and purchased the Safe-T Bumpers. fitted in minutes and the seat hasn't moved since. was so impressed I bought one for my Mum, her seat was starting to wobble has been in place for 6 months and hasn't budged a bit. would recomment to anyone with a wooden toilet seat. not sure if you could glue to a plastic one but think it may not hold so well would be best to invest in a wooden seat you would save in the long run as wouldn't need replaced for ages Read more

This is the second time I have purchased these, the first ones I installed were accidentally thrown away with an old seat.They are easy to install, especially when using the included elastic band, first ones took about 30 minutes but the latest ones took about 10 minutes now that I have the hang of it.My family had gone through toilet seats and hinges at a rate of knots until I spotted this invention and since fitted have had no trouble with seat movement damaging the hinges.I presume that they will only be suitable for solid seats such as wood as they are screw fixed.Thank you to whoever invented these.
