I'm a retard when it comes to fixing home issues... How easy is this to replace a broken existing one?

so very easy to install! and comes with all the parts you need to install this new one.

Really easy. Designed to be attached in a very simple, straightforward process.

Quite easy. Generally you need pliers to get the old one off. The new mounts screw in the holes the old seat came out of. The new seat has locking lugs that swing to one side and then go over the new mounting lugs on the toilet. Rotate the locking lug back to the closed position. Have a seat.

Very easy. The hard part is getting the old seat off. Bolts may be rusted or corroded. New seat and bolts go on very easy.

Easy...there are these plastic screws with nuts that you unwind to pull off the old seat and same to install the new one, no tools necessary, tighten it down by hand as snug as you can and you are done.

This is as simple as simple gets. Instructions are easy and you just take off the old one and put in the new.

Purchase this and the bottom piece, everything is pretty easy to replace but the hardest part is taking them out... Since you brokw both parts it may not be hard as you can take them both out as a whole together so you may not have to worry about melting the tape/glue... There are doEns of youtube videos to show you step by step how to do it... Make sure you get the tools and the tape piece... Overall instead of paying $200 going through your phone carrier you may come out about $40 ....

It was not that difficult. The machine was together in under 20 minutes. It may be helpful to have a second person helping but not completely necessary. I did this on my own. The most frustrating part is getting the wires in position, that's where most of the time is spent.

It's really a very easy replacement. It takes about 5 minutes or less. See the you tube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_ePvpfAkAc. Note; replace the little washer on the top plastic screw as well as the big washer.

I actually did it myself with simple tools. It was a pretty easy job. YouTube has several good videos that are easy to follow. Hope this helps.

Hi Lindsey, unfortunately It's easier to replace it and much less costly than try to repair it. The same happened to me, but a quick click on amazon, a quick connection on the new unit... Up and running in no time and no labor cost! good luck.

Yes it is very simple and pretty basic.Make sure you write down the way the wires were so you don't forget.Loosen the screws holding down the wires, remove screws from the inside back of the Replace with new unit and connect the wires.

Pretty simple...just have to remove old unit and reattach new one, connecting the proper wires to one another...lots of instruction/how-to videos available on YouTube. It's not hard as each wire has a certain color, etc.

Yes. It can be done fairly easily. If you still wish to repair it yourself, I will send you a link by which you can see step by step photos of my successful repair. Like you, for the cost I couldn't stomach throwing it away and Chi told me it would be 6-8 weeks and the total cost for the repair and return shipping was going to be $72.00! Give me a break, I can buy a new one for almost the same price, so I decided to try to repair it, and it was surprisingly easy. Total repair time takes about 20 min from start to finish.

I did it myself. It was pretty straight forward especially referencing otherpeople's reviews. I would think a handyman or electrician.

You would be better off simply replacing your current switch with this one as long as this is a compatible switch. It's not designed to be opened easily. If you do get it opened, you will be extremely challenged to get it all back together in a way that it will actually work. Just replace the entire piece.

The instructions are useless, I just paid attention to how I removed it and put the new one in. I also called the company and ask someone to direct me

I replaced the mounting assembly even though I didn't need to. Either would have worked. I had a new sink with a very old disposal. I am barely qualified to change a light bulb and found the process easy. I used nothing but screwdrivers, pliers, and the wrench that came with the unit as the old plug, gaskets, clamps, and pipes hooked up to the new unit without a problem.

Call them and ask for a replacement. IIRC the unit, like most if not all, is a twist-off. Should be easy (for a guy or an adept woman) to swap out).

I'm an older woman and managed to do it myself but I'm pretty handy around the house. If you are not, you may want to call a plumber, but take a look at the instructions first. Actually, take a look at the pictures, they're easier to follow.
