When it's still 1 piece with a crack in one side, that sucker can PINCH!!! I speak from experience

I think the toilet seats break because they have only 4 plastic 'feet' to rest on the bowl edge. I've found if you can find a seat with 5 or 6, that it holds up better. Also, the oak ones hold up well, but you may not like the look.

I've got one of those. They're really comfortable and don't seem as cold in the morning. TrogL Mar 2013 #9

Oh my. At first I thought you meant the bowl. The seat is easy to replace (and not expensive). CosmicDustBunny Mar 2013 #7
