    Anyone know what the warmest toilet seats are ? Major problem in my apartment.

    I seem to remember some really light and thin plastic ones being the least cold ... I know some people have mentioned wood, but I don't seem to find them less cold at all.

    Covers seem very unhygienic :(

    wood=unhygienic, covers=unhygienic, toilet seats=unhygienic;-)

    I think there all preset to be cold this time of year, and heat is the perfect breeding ground for bacteria, the trick is to choose a material that will transfer the heat from the back of your thighs quickly to the seat itself.

    If you go for a thick wooden block or a thick steel seat the heat might not transfer as quick as say a cheap white toilet seat..............

    What is needed is actually a material that does NOT transmit heat from your body because that is what causes the coldness. A super insulating material is what is needed...

    Thanks guys ... no good ideas as yet :P

    the only solution is to make your own seat from a bit of insulated plasterboard :D

    square bit of board ........ cut hole in middle ............ im sure everyone will comment on it when they visit :D

    Prime the toilet seat with toilet paper prior to occupying said toilet seat.

    Install a squat you will not need a seat. Problem Solved.

    Styrofoam would be a brilliant material because it conducts so little heat it would always feel warm to the touch !

    No need for heated covers or warm seats........


    Just eat plenty of meat and fibre foods too


    You will soon get nice and warm and be out of breath from trying to squeeze out a big Mr Hanky or a big Mud Monkey.:D

    I think I would much prefer a hygienic material to a nice warm breeding ground for bacteria!
    (e.coli etc. has the potential to be fatal)

    If cold....do as the ladies do.....squat don't sit.

    I imagine browning stryo-foam or plasterboard certainly would be a talking point for your friends

    the warmest seat is the recently used one.

    An uncomfortable reminder of the melding of arses for me but each to their own....

    Well I don't encounter a sh1tted on seat in mine or my acquaintance's houses. There is no reason a styrofoam seat would be any mess hygienic if it manufactured properly.

    In the days when we had serving staff I used to send in the valet to pre-warm the seat for me.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 3,496 ✭✭✭DGOBS


    as long as it could be cleaned!
    I never suggested anyone poohing on the seat, so supporting your theory, there is never any point in disinfecting and cleaning toilet seats! Bacteria spreads, and the whole area is a breeding ground for them, or maybe my better half should give up been a microbiologist! sure, what would she know about it!
