With a stretch fabric cover- rubberized bottom to contact with the seat- pockets to attach securely to the front and back of the seat near the hinges... these Big Josh's pad & covers will fit a wide range of individual toilet seats that are approximately the size and shapes indicated. It works so well because it is THIN; it’s only 3/4 inch thick and ½ inch is GEL. Thicker GEL is undesirable because it does not increase comfort - may require OT retraining - increases cost - and is a little more work to maintain. Toilet seats manufactured and sold as “soft toilet seats” have a solid cover over foam with a hole in the bottom of the cover to allow air to escape from the foam. This is why they make noise. They tend to split when a heavier person sits on them repeatedly. The solid cover creates a build up of sweat and heat. The foam flattens and is not particularly effective as a means of softening the toilet seat. What’s important about this Big Josh's pad and cover?
