For easy and thorough cleaning, Toto has designed its toilet seats to be removable with just a few simple steps. A gentle press on the release buttons is enough to detach the seat from the ceramic, allowing access to hard-to-reach areas. The stainless steel hinges used by Toto are particularly corrosion-resistant and are an essential component for a durable connection between the seat and the ceramic. For even more comfort and hygiene in the bathroom, the nearly silent soft-close mechanism ensures that a light touch is all it takes for the toilet seat to close automatically. This helps to avoid unnecessary contact points in both private and public settings.
