Do the original toilet seat and/or lid need to be removed in order to install this?

o there is nothing to remove and the locking device is accomplished by just turning a knob on the front of that seat riser, I like the facr also that the arm rest are easly removed by jusy pushing in a button.

on our toilet the seat did not need to be removed so you were sitting with the underside of the seat at your back

No just raise them and place directly on the toilet and tighten in place. I had a problem with mine in that it would stay securely tightenen

No, the original toilet seat and lid do not need to be removed to use this product. The lid and seat do need to be up.This is a very useful product. I had a total knee replacement in June. I still have this on my toilet as it is so much easierto get up and down.

Yes I did reinstall the lid on top of Bidet . I took seat cover off then put bidet on seat then put seat cover on top of bidet then put bolt to tight the seat.

No, I wouldn't try that. It's never even entered my mind. It's meant to be set on the porcelain toilet rim - after you've lifted up the existing seat. Depending upon the shape of their toilet bowls, some folks apparently have to use the included sticky pads. I've not encountered that. That's why I love this item so well. For me, it fits perfectly the way it comes out of the box.

If you are asking does it need a regular seat/lid? If you don't want a lid on it, you don't have to have one. I just installed one yesterday, but I like to have a lid to keep my critters from drinking the water! UPDATE: 3/12/15: The regular seat was up (unaware as it was night & I didn't turn the light on) when I sat on the riser I almost fell in!! So unless you have a wide butt, you'd be better off installing the toilet seat!

You have to remove the old seat and screw this one in from the bottom. This is a whole seat not a top accessory

Yes. The toilet is complete. You'll still need a wax seal for the install but otherwise the valve, handle and bolt caps are all included. Toilet seat also included.

Fairly "simple" with just 2-bolt nuts.......loosen or remove the 2-nuts on the bolts holding the riser and seat to the toilet rim---raise and clean bottom of riser and top of the toilet rim---retighten the 2-bolts that hold the riser and seat to the toilet slowly as you center the riser back on the top of the toilet rim and tighten just until the riser/seat is firmly secure to the toilet....No need to "over tighten"..... Tools: small adjustable wrench or pliers, and screw driver will help. (If plastic nuts, should hand tighten as tight as possible.)

Yes, the only parts that are attached are the 3 front wedges which stick with velcro. The velcro could be easily peeled off the bottom of the seat. The back support unscrews and can be removed and replaced the original shorter screws of your toilet seat. I use my risers for elderly guests that need the height and then remove them when not needed. I keep the velcro on the bottom of the seat, though no one would notice that they're there. But they certainly could be peeled off for permanent removal.

Yes you do have to take the old Seat off but you will like this seat it too has a lid on it and you don't have to almost sit-on the Floor to go to the bathroom.

The seat is a removable separate piece and I don't believe one has to replace the whole unit if for whatever reason the seat has to be replaced.

Sorry, but I don't understand your question. The elevated seat comes with the necessary hardware to install on the toilet.

With both the toilet lid and toilet seat up, it just sits over the top edge of the toilet bowl. No installation or any other parts required. Works great!

MJ, to put this on you need to remove both your original lid and seat from your toilet bowl. Because this is both of those in one. After a hip surgery, I had a different one before I bought this..........the other was not very nice to look at because it didn't have the lid. I found this one not only to be comfortable but also to be more complete with the lid and so esthetically speaking much nicer.

Yes, it does need to have a regular toilet seat on top of the riser. The riser itself is hinged; which makes cleaning under it easier.

No. You use the lock from your original handle. It is easy to remove from old and install in new.

Everything you need to install this on your exiting toilet comes with it. No separate parts needed! :-) It just looks that way because they have a cover over where the bolts go. Hope this helps!

No - it require a little work. You have to remove the original seat and lid and replace. Takes screw drivers of both kinds. I am an 85 year old woman and my husband helped with instructions. He is very happy with it - following a bout in the hospital. Be sure to order the elongated kind if that is wht you need
