Toilet seat covers - are they a thing of the past?

Unhygienic and rather naff! Just use a towel which can be washed more easily. The comments about those ghastly toilet roll holders; my friend's Mother had one, it was a plastic doll with a crocheted crinoline and even after all these years I can remember the words of the little piece of paper pinned to her 'frock' Out of paper, don't despair. Turn me over and I'm a spare. Shudder

I have a small step stool from Ikea that fits in the corner of my bathroom that is just the right height to sit on and the bottom step to put each foot on.
You can also buy folding seats that can go in the shower if you wish or used as a stool outside the bath/shower.
I wouldn't sit on my toilet seat especially with the lid down after my SiL did it, the lid cracked and she ended up in hospital, having stitches in her bottom after the sharp edges cut her!

I agree with Lin52.

I am not surprised toilet seat covers are a thing of the past. They are ok if you live on your own and don't have visitors but otherwise they are totally unhygienic.

As far as I know they have gone the same way as the pedestal mat. Both unhygienic. As has been said, use a towel and put it straight in the wash

My old Mum had a toilet seat cover and a tea cosy!! Not for me.

I scuff my feet in my towel to dry them , now that I’ve got my hip well bedded in I don’t need to sit down to dry them ! But I wouldn’t use one of those covers , bit unhygienic

I just use a towel why by something special. I really hope they aren't still for sale the same goes for toilet roll covers. Never understand why you would need to cover your loo roll up. My nan had a knitted one which was supposed to look like a dog. Frightened me as a young child. She had to take it out before I would use the loo. But I was 3 at the time.

As Lin52 says, use a towel it’s many many years since mats and covers on the toilet were ditched.

Thankfully I’m not at the stage where I have to sit down to dry my feet: but if I did I certainly wouldn’t be buying a toilet seat cover. I’m amazed that you can still buy them.

Just use a towel. Then in bin for wash, more hygienic too.
