ViveRaised Toilet Seat - 5" Portable, Elevated Riser with Padded Handles - Elongated and Standard Fit Commode Lifter - Bathroom Safety Extender Assists Disabled, Elderly, Seniors, Handicapped (1)

It’s so convenient to have a regular toilet seat to sit on with this elevated item under it.The fact that it is attached to the toilet and can swing up makes it perfect.

I'm impressed with this toilet riser. I've had another I purchased here as well, but it did not have the heavy duty long screws, nuts, and washers. I fastened this product with my existing toilet lid . It adds about 4 inches of height. I have aging knees and my toilet sits very low to the floor. This installed combination has solved that issue. It is also easy to clean and fits very snug. You will need a flathead screw driver. You can combine the washers from your existing lid (if you chose to use a lid - not required.) The most challenging thing was to get the nut on each screw along with holding the bottom washers in place. But after a little finagling, I got it together!

excellent product , would recommend to anyone

Update to my earlier review to add:Also noted: I needed to replace a broken nylon washer on the seat hinge that I had before I bought the Vive riser, and just now found out how bad the rusty hardware Vive supplies! The long bolt was rusty, as was the metal washer, and wing nut, and that I had some difficulty removing because of the corrosion. So, if you do buy the Vive riser, then it would be a good idea to coat the hardware with something that might help rust from forming like silicone spray or at least petroleum jelly. I'm sure there are others better suited too. This happened in only 3 years of use, so beware of this seemingly minor detail that can bite you later if you aren't aware like me, until you are!We have had this for a little over 3 years (bought 2020), and it has served us well, except that it started to deform a bit with dimples in the top from the seat after a short while, and then maybe a year after, it started to show cracks in the top on either side where the toilet seat rested. I bought this because it was rated to 350 pounds, and that's about what I was at my heaviest weight, so it should have held up better than it has. And now, the price is almost double of what I paid 3 years ago, though that does fluctuate a bit on Amazon. I like the Vive company, but will not buy this one again, but will go with the OasisSpace riser instead this time, even though it's only rated to 300 pounds, but I am a little below that now, so it should be fine. And the OasisSpace riser is at least $25 less than the Vive. Hopefully it is made a little better than the Vive for durability. But these hinged risers are definitely the way to go, since they are so much easier to keep them clean on the underside. And my knees have never been more thankful too!Initial revue below:I bought this mainly because of a bad knee that was making it so hard to stand up after sitting on a too low toilet. This is a real blessing, and just what I needed. That 3-1/2 inches makes a big difference! Also, this one was one of the only ones rated to 350 pounds, so my 325 weight was easily covered. It is very sturdy, though you do need to tighten the screws while holding the wingnut below the bowl, every now and again, as it will loosen a little through use. It doesn't become unstable, but shifts a little sometimes, so it's good to keep that screwdriver handy and not let it get too loose. The handy hinged version like these is the way to go with a riser, for sure.No doubt this will probably help some with back problems and hip problems too, if they hurt when you get up or sit down. Orthopedic doctors offices sometimes have higher chairs for those with problems in their waiting rooms, I have discovered, thankfully. So the height increase does work!This seems by all indications to be a quality product, that is built very well, is easy to install, use and clean, and will last a long time. What is also nice is that it allows the full size of the bowl to be usable, unlike those cheaper clamped on versions that have a much smaller opening to the bowl because of their design. We have one like that in the basement that will probably get tossed now, and I did not like using it, nor trying to clean it or having to remove it to clean under that kind of seat riser.You can add handles to this, or maybe better, the portable one that looks like a walker if you still need help rising after use. Those do not need to be installed, like the handles that can be added to the seat. I plan on adding that sometime, if needed. When back trouble hits, sometimes sitting down is painful too, along with getting up. So assistance handles would help. But this Vive toilet seat riser is the smart first step to helping yourself.

I needed a toilet seat riser for my mom and I found this one. It fit perfect and easy to clean and good price

It's exactly what I ordered

Ordered for brother-in-law...so easy to attach to the toilet and when it's attached it is very sturdy and does not move around in the least.

We have elongated seat. Had to remove seat and lid which was difficult as it had been on toilet over 20 years. But putting the riser on was easy. A little tip…to keep riser from moving I put a large roll of paper towels in a ziplock bad and put it behind the riser in front of the tank. It makes it snug and much safer.
