Can someone tell me if this seat does, in fact, have soft-close hinges? That is the reason I bought this and I want to be sure before I open it.

Despite the description, this seat did NOT have soft-close hinges. I am disappointed, but love the seat. I wonder if there is a way to retro-fit soft-close hinges?

Does that mean that it won't slam closed? If so, no, not soft close hinges.

I find it to close quite softly if that's any help to you. I boght two of these seats about six months ago and am quite pleased with them. I've even received complements from guests in my home on the toilet seat.Hope this has been helpful.

I think it does. But, I close it softly, I don't let it drop. This is a beautiful toilet seat and I love it. This doesn't have anything to do with your question, but I think it is important. I really like the chrome hinge. So easy to keep shiny and new looking. My last wooden toilet seat had a brass hinge, and brass will tarnish. I think you will love this seat.

However they are made, if your have your door all the way open, it stays in place there. But if you open it up to about 18 inches, when you left go of it, it begins to slowly close. It closes all the way. We bought 2 hinges for 24 doors and they work great. Also great savings compared to local stores.

This type has hinges on the top. This is per my plumber son-in-law. Great seat if you have potty training to do.

Now that I see this picture, mine in black does seem to have same problem. It's really not noticeable...the hinge is just not real strong...I'm glad I bought this, but I'm not expecting it to last for years.

Yes it closes quietly, hinges are in-side and I don't know the name but has a small piece of metal on hinge which is connected to top and side so it closes/slides down slow. Has with stood 3 grand-daughters and is still going. Have in natural color and as I said has with stood kids.

No it does not. It looks fine from behind. I tell you, I sat in it once and then pulled it out for my friend who may weigh 120 to sleep on and the next morning it would not stay hinged. I am very disappointed. Cheaply made. Sorry&#55357;&#56883;

This seat has a soft close lid. It's very light and will stay up at a 90 degree angle. I pulled it about a 1/2" forward and it still stayed up. After that it goes into the soft close. That's the lid. The seat has to be at maybe a 91 degree angle or it starts to close.

It's more like a pressed wood, finished nicely. I have had for a couple of months and have had a lot of compliments. If you purchase, don't bother putting the hinges on that keep the seat up, don't need and pulled away from wood. The seat stays up just fine without. Took two people about 1 hour to assemble, it was easy.

Yes. This item comes with a manufactur warranty. I would not recommend this item, due to a current issue with the hinges that is not covered by the warranty.

No - you order the seat separate and there are a couple of options, the SS204 Soft Close is the best

Yes it has easy clean hinges. But it also has a easy break hinges, mine ended up in the garbage after three weeks.

Yes. Mine was. I believe most Toto toilets come with a soft close seat. Great toilet!

No, I don't believe it comes with a seat. The soft close is nice and costs ~$40 as I recall.

It has hinges. It's smaller than I imagined and the pleather ripped quickly, though I have a lot of pets. The one I had prior I had gotten at jcpenny and I liked it a lot more, it was more money, but worth it

Just the main lid and seat have soft close. The little seat is light weight, but sturdy. It doesn't need it. This is the most durable toilet seat I've ever purchased!! Had for 5 years now, still in mint condition!! My kids are 6 & 8 and still use it off an on!!
