What material is the Old London Storm Grey toilet seat made from?

How do I clean the toilet seat?
Clean the seat using a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
What is the benefit of the soft-close hinges?
Soft-close hinges prevent the seat and lid from slamming shut, providing a quieter and safer user experience, and reducing wear and tear.

The seat features quick-release fixings. Typically, there are buttons or levers on the hinges that allow you to detach the seat from the bowl for easy cleaning.
What is the warranty period for this toilet seat?
The manufacturer provides a 12-month guarantee against faulty workmanship or materials, excluding serviceable parts.
Can I coordinate this seat with other bathroom furniture?
Yes, this seat is designed to co-ordinate with matching Old London vanity units, WC units, and tall boys.
What are the dimensions of the toilet seat?
The dimensions are approximately 350mm in width, 60mm in height, and 451mm in depth.
Is this toilet seat suitable for all toilet shapes?
This seat is designed for round toilet bowls. Please check the hinge centre measurements (150mm-186mm) against your toilet pan for compatibility.
Troubleshooting
Toilet seat slams shut
Ensure the seat is properly attached to the hinges and that the hinges are correctly installed. The soft-close mechanism may require adjustment or could be faulty if persistent. Contact manufacturer support if the issue continues.
Seat is wobbly or loose
Check and retighten the top-fix bolts securing the hinges to the toilet bowl. Ensure the seat is properly clicked into place on the hinge posts.
Quick-release mechanism not working
Ensure there is no debris obstructing the release buttons or slots. Try gently wiggling the seat while attempting to release it. If the mechanism is damaged, professional assistance may be required.
Fittings are difficult to install
Ensure you are using the correct screwdriver and applying steady pressure. If the holes on the toilet pan do not align, double-check the hinge centre compatibility. Avoid forcing the fittings.
