Wooden toilet seats
Even after all these years, the wood is still not out of style. Paired with a porcelain toilet, it's a combination that can work in both modern and traditional settings. The contrast in materials between seat and bowl is a great one to style around.
Modern toilet seats

Soft-close toilet seats
Soft-close functionality is one of the best innovations in recent times. Everyone hates the loud ping of a closing seat, which this removes completely. The soft-close feature also protects and makes the hinges last longer too.
Heated toilet seats

With adjustable temperature settings and energy-efficient operation, they offer convenience and easy maintenance, making them an excellent addition to any bathroom.
Smart toilet seats

They provide health benefits and a stylish design, with easy installation and maintenance, making them a great addition to any bathroom. Toilet lids on smart seats can close automatically when someone walks away from the toilet or using a remote control or app.
Hygienic toilet seat

Also known as a bidet toilet seat, it’s the perfect pairing of sleek design and hygiene. It gives you all the features of a bidet, with convenience and comfort. Fast becoming a popular option in New Zealand.
Black toilet seats
The black toilet seat has now become so popular in New Zealand that it is its own sought after category. The look complements many aesthetics including that of minimalistic bathroom design. Pair with an all-black toilet or traditional porcelain for dynamic contrast.
Toilet seat design
Contemporary designs in New Zealand allow for a variety in colour and style choice. This allows for a trendy twist in bathroom decor and design. The soft edges or square shape of the seat can completely change the overall style of the bathroom. It gives you a tremendous opportunity to create a point of difference with the ability to personalise the space.
Toilet seat material
Traditionally, the material chosen to manufacture toilets in New Zealand is ceramic or porcelain. As previously mentioned, wood is still very fashionable. Polyresin is also still used in manufacturing and metals are another choice, usually for design-inspired bathrooms.
Maintenance and cleaning process
Cleaning and caring for toilet seats is important and easy, following these simple steps.
- Ensure that the seat material stays intact and use warm water and soap to clean.
- Alternatively, use antibacterial soap with water, as this is less abrasive to the surface.
- Ensure that a soft cloth is used when cleaning the seat, to prevent the surface from scratching.
- When using bleach or abrasive cleaning products in the toilet bowl, leave the seat open. This prevents potential discolouring.
