I am so happy with your tutorial! I'm 74, and just had my second hip surgery. The Kohler Hyten Toilet Seat is an answer to my prayers. I took the old seat off and installed the new one in less than 15 minutes. It would not have been that simple without your excellent instructions. Thank you!
I love this toilet seat, it is exactly what I needed. However, when it arrived I looked at the pieces to in stall it and was a little bewildered and thought where do I start. So I came on here to check for a video and followed the steps and within 10 minutes my new toilet seat was installed and I love it. It is a beautiful looking seat, but most of all very comfortable. I am in my eighties and if I can install it any person can.
I greatly appreciate this. I'm 79, good in a garden and on a computer but totally inept at anything like this. Your concise, clear instructions with the video and the closeups got me past Stuck. I even managed to install it over my Brondell dual-nozzle bidet attachment (also a great item), even though Koehler reps said only their model that costs twice as much (and has bad reviews as of 9/2024 but will probably get better with later versions).
You are doing a wonderful presentation, thank you for taking time to walk us people who might be as mechanically inclined as you. I watch about 4 or more of your bathroom toilets being installed ; I am having back surgery soon and will be using one very soon. You are ONE OF THE BEST WHEN IT COMES TO EXPLAINING AND THE GOING OVER IT AGAIN. THAK SO SUCH! Sue in MI
Thank you soooooooooooooo much for this video! There was no way I could figure it out with their instructions and was almost going to return it to Amazon. And I even was able to do it myself after my knee replacement only 5 weeks ago!!!
I can’t tell you how happy I was to see Lindsey installing, recommending and reviewing this toilet seat! I am recovering from hip surgery and it has been a pain in the butt (literally) using my regular height (14.5) toilet seat. I’ve had to use a raised frame seat with arm support but find it unstable and honestly embarrassing when company come over (I usually remove it if it’s not family) Luckily this product showed up on my google search and it was on sale! I’m so looking forward to its arrival before Xmas- a gift to myself! Thanks Lindsey for your always excellent videos for us old farts! 🙏 😂
Thank you thank you for this video. I had that seat installed but it had shifted and I was not aware of that quick release button . Now I am able to clean my seat so easily.
Great video! I ordered mine from Amazon, Lowes didn’t carry the elongated one, and I should have it on Friday. My left hip replacement surgery is June 6th and I’m trying to get everything ready. You’re how to videos are so helpful and assuring me that I can get through it! It can’t be more painful than what I have now? Thank you! I’ll keep watching and learning! Blessings, Dee.
Great video! This helped my wife figure out the install much better than the Kohler video did.. Thank you for the clear explanations and the clear video shots.
Thanks so much, therewas a part of the written instructions that was not clear. I pulled this up, watch the video and everything went smooth after that. I appreciate the help so much.
Thank you for doing these informative and helpful videos. I am considering getting a raised toilet seat due to having Multiple Sclerosis, balance issues and a foot drop, which toilet seat riser would you suggest and height for a low toilet and my height is 5 feet 5in. Question why keep the toilet seat if you can just use the riser?
Thank you for this! I have this seat for my mom and it is great. But-it got loose. I forgot about the release button in the back. Thank goodness you covered that! Thanks again!
WOW, glad i found you,made my life easier, the instructions that they give you now in these units that you purchase is not as simple as they think it is and you just made it very clear how to install thank you thank you
I love my Kohler raised toliet seat . I did buy one over a year ago the wrong one elongated compared to round but works great anyway. Wish I had installed over a year ago my knees thank you so much
Excellent video. Just installed ours and it was really easy. Thank you so much for this recommendation and the instructions. Nice height. Looks great. We don't need it yet, but am preparing for the future and it's ready for visitors :)
This is great!! it was time for me to change my toilets anyway which I did a few years ago and got the ADA height however, my mom had to come live with me and even the ADA was a little bit of a struggle for her. I did have one of those toilet seat risers, the ugly one that just sits on top and is always open and looks really ugly. And being that hard plastic, it just didn’t seem sanitary no matter how much I cleaned it. The bathroom she uses is also the guest bathroom when I have company so I am always always cleaning it just to be sure that it’s presentable to, whoever needs to use it. Now with this, I think I am going to go ahead and order one. because it just looks like a a toilet . My only question is can I use this with the grab bar that is currently installed on the toilet? It’s just a single grab bar that attaches to the bolts on the back of the toilet seat. It has one of those push buttons that you attach.Please let me know than you so much. Wish I knew about you three years ago ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for the helpful video! My installed easy but is now sliding back. Any suggestions how to stop this from happening? I have already tried to tighten the screws. Thanks
Hi There, I am wondering if the toilet seat stays up flush to the tank when raised as I have looked at other models that don't seem to do that which makes it more difficult for those who prefer to stand up when urinating. I am looking to get one for my dad and his only worry was that. Thanks!
Great tutorial ! Maybe you can help me ? I bought A Hyten seat but seam to have lost the Mounting brackets ( you referred to them as "pegs" ) . Any possibility you could point me in the direction of replacements parts via a part number or supplier ? Thanks in Advance !😊
I love this seat, however it has shifted sideways. How do I fix this? I figured it out by using the quick release catch and reseating it. I want to thank you so much for your wonderful tips. I got the toilet seat and the bath bench and it got me through all the months of being in a wheelchair after ankle surgery.
HELP!!! I purchased this seat for my knee surgery . But have yet to install it cause one of the bolts on old seat will not budge. Any ideas on how to get plastic nut off???
I have this raised toilet seat and we love it. I saw you review on it and ordered it. I have a question for you can a bidet be use with is toilet seat. My husband is having difficulty and the hospital said maybe a bidet could help. What are you thoughts or anyone reading this have you tried one. Any help would be appreciated.
I have been researching an item such as this for my mother. This video is great, so thank you! I wanted to ask are you familiar with the Drive Devilbliss Raised toilet seat with bidet, and it’s installation process? Thank you.
Hi just installed my Kohler raised seat and when I use the quick release button to remove the seat, the white plastic covers lift off with the seat. Is this supposed to happen, or did I do something wrong? Other than that I love it and thank you so much for this video!
Okay so since your chair is reclined am I able to lay back with it like that? My surgery is 9/25 I am freaking out! Hubby has a Pilot,, show me in the suv how far from t you cannot go.. please’
Mine, too. It has slid sideways. A friend installed it for me because I cannot get down to do it with my broken ankle. I'm trying to figure out how to fix the sideways slide.
Preparing for THR - purchased this toilet seat & Kmina safety rails. The walker I have is a little too wide to easily get into the toilet area. Do you have any suggestions?
It won't rest level on the seat with an undermount bidet system. It's possible you could add some bumpers under the toilet seat to level it out, but I haven't had much luck because the underside of the seat is hollow and the bumpers on the market are too big/don't attach securely. I have mine with a hand held bidet sprayer attachment, which works well. amzn.to/47ALplN
I have 2 of these and love them. Looking over all your videos! I love how to get out of the car after hip replacement. I have an Equinox, so it’s perfect! Thank you!!
Hi. Do you have any suggestions for sturdy raised toilet seats that can handle things like uncontrolled movement, tremor or just people who aren't able to sit down in a controlled manner but tend to flop all of which put strain on the attachments?
I have combined the raised seat in the video (Kohler Hyten) with this handle system (see link below) and it is incredibly sturdy and tolerant of movement. amzn.to/45L5F2H
Thank you! 1-Can you leave a link? I’d be glad to see you receive a commission on my purchase, as well as make sure I’m getting the one YOU recommend. 2-do you know if this toilet seat accommodates a bidet?
Thank you! Here’s the link to this toilet seat: amzn.to/3MIHoSJ This is a video I did about combining a raised seat with a bidet! th-cam.com/video/JpoqadMzHjs/w-d-xo.html
I have a Koehler elongated toilet. This new toilet seat is great, but it’s too short! I called K and they said all elongated K toilets should work with this. So frustrating at 76. I have the elongated version.
6 หลายเดือนก่อน
EquipMeOT , manufacturers as a rule do not include the distance between the mounting holes that the seat is made for. If adjustments are possible on the seat to make it fit, they don't include the range of adjustments. What is the range of adjustment for this seat??
Excellent video!!! Thank you very much for taking your time to explain so very well the instructions. I want to buy a Kohler Hyten raised round toilet from Amazon but I only find elongated; If you or any body here can give me the link from Amazon to buy the round one, I will appreciate it.
NOT EASY TO CLEAN. Why can’t KOHLER design an elevated seat that has a lid and seat that flip up like a normal toilet seat? Remove the entire unit to clean it? So difficult for a person who is elderly or dealing with a disability. And of course, it can’t be returned. Absolutely great tutorial. But rather disingenuous to imply that having to completely remove it to clean it is no big deal.
I am so happy with your tutorial! I'm 74, and just had my second hip surgery. The Kohler Hyten Toilet Seat is an answer to my prayers. I took the old seat off and installed the new one in less than 15 minutes. It would not have been that simple without your excellent instructions. Thank you!

Well done!! Very straight forward and great direction. You are the best!!
Thank you. That's the nicest one I've seen so far. Really appreciate your helpful videos. 👏👍
I’m so glad they are helpful! I really love this seat!
@@EquipMeOT That's good to know. There are just so many it's difficult to know what to think about choosing.
Thank you! I tried other videos, none of which showed WHERE to find the Quick Release button. Thank you!
You’re welcome! I’m glad I could help.
I have one of these Riser seats and I love it.
Do they make one with a split ring feature? I think that could be helpful for creating an access space to wipe.
Excellent presentation, I was able to install mine quite easily now, thanks
Great to hear!
Thank you so very much! This is a wonderful teaching!!!
You are so welcome!

Thank you so very much. Such a big help. I was able to install the toilet seat by myself.
Great informative video, Thank you😊
Can you use a bidet attachment with this raised toilet seat?
If seat sits on an angle, can you install something under attachment to raise it a little and level it off?
Thank you for the helpful video! My installed easy but is now sliding back. Any suggestions how to stop this from happening? I have already tried to tighten the screws. Thanks
the pegs do not sit flat in order to put the screw in, they are pointing to back of tank, not laying flat?

Can this riser be used with a bidet? I have the Luxe bidet that I love.
Can a Luxe Neo 185 bidet be installed with this seat?
Can you use a toilet frame with toilet seat?
Does this work with the luxe bidet neo 120
Can this be installed with the Luxe Bidet Neo 120? What handrails would you recommend?
Very well presented!

How do you get the caps back off when you need to adjust it? I like it but it came loose on one side and can't get to the screw to adjust it.

Thank You
Mine is sliding all around. Did I not tighten it enough?
Mine, too. It has slid sideways. A friend installed it for me because I cannot get down to do it with my broken ankle. I'm trying to figure out how to fix the sideways slide.
Thank you so much for this video❤
You’re welcome!
Does this come with handles
Installed this in preparation for my THR, my only problem is it’s not compatible with the bidet which goes in between the seat and the toilet bowl.
Wish I had this 3 months ago when I had my hip replacement.
Can I use a bidet with this set up
Can everything be removed when not needed
Preparing for THR - purchased this toilet seat & Kmina safety rails. The walker I have is a little too wide to easily get into the toilet area. Do you have any suggestions?
How difficult is it to remove this and go back to a normal toilet seat height?
Do you think a bidet attachment would work with this or any type of riser?
It won't rest level on the seat with an undermount bidet system. It's possible you could add some bumpers under the toilet seat to level it out, but I haven't had much luck because the underside of the seat is hollow and the bumpers on the market are too big/don't attach securely.

Is there a pillow or cushion for people who no longer have any muscle mass or fat on their backside?
Hard to sit comfortably.
Love your videos
This can be added to a standard or raised toilet seat to provide some cushion without too much added height. amzn.to/3Si2mMi
Thank you for this video! Is the seat of this toilet sturdy enough to sit on?
I want to know this too, and see there's been no reply in 11 months, lol.
Thank you!
1-Can you leave a link?
I’d be glad to see you receive a commission on my purchase, as well as make sure I’m getting the one YOU recommend.

@@EquipMeOT Thank you for following up. Your videos are amazing. Professional and practical.
mine slides around all the time what is the solution?

Can you still install handrails with this toilet?
Yes, you can use hand rails. I prefer this rail system with this riser, but others will work too.
amzn.to/3LEglr6
What height is the seat? Are there options? AND what is the weight limit?
Thanks for all of your clear instructions and helpful information.
It adds 3” of rise and has a weight capacity of 350#.
Are you able to use handrails that attach to the seat via the bolts or just a stand alone?
Excellent video!!! Thank you very much for taking your time to explain so very well the instructions. I want to buy a Kohler Hyten raised round toilet from Amazon but I only find elongated; If you or any body here can give me the link from Amazon to buy the round one, I will appreciate it.
Is there a model number
Is there a gap at the back?
No, a small space at the attachment, but not necessarily a gap.
Sooooooo helpful!
