Had one of these that came with our house. Very comfortable and the slow close is a nice feature. Very nice polished chrome hinges, however they do pit over time with the use of chemical cleaners. The finish on the seat will also begin to fade as my older one did. Still, this Mayfair model is more comfortable than the other highly rated seats online. I specifically prefer this model since the seat is just slightly curved and does not slope down into the bowl.
