    thetford toilet seat

    Has anyone replaced their toilet seat? I was able to upgrade our seat in our previous TT (Dometic) but can't find an upgrade for the Thetford.

    In our Reflection 29RS we replaced the toilet seat with a standard white slow closing seat purchased from Home Depot. I did this on my previous RV as well. Standard round seat made for your toilet in the house will fit your RV toilet.

    Hi Husker! Ok I see that you found a toilet seat replacement that fit. I have gone through 3 different round seat replacements and none of them fit. First the size of the attachment area (little area where the screw dowl thingy goes) is too big, it bangs against the back of the toilet, and the seat does not fit the bowl (and I measured 4 times!) I AM GETTING desperate. I have searched this site for someone who has a 2021 22 MLE to see if they have found a seat that fits. Can anybody help??

    thanks !!

    Need to go by the brand/ model of the toilet, not the trailer model. I once had a Thetford and seem to recall it’s seat is not a standard size.

    Try Bath Royale. Only toilet seat I have found that fits the Thetford round front toilet.

    I had the Thetford Aqua-Magic and this one worked for me:

    For a real upgrade, I switched out the entire toilet to the Dometic 320.

    I second the Bath Royale mentioned by @Fsalmy. I've replaced the seat in two different travel trailers with them. They have a unique mounting system that makes installation very easy and flexible. I picked mine up from Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...e?ie=UTF8&th=1). This particular seat is also great when it comes time to clean. It has a button on the back of the seat that allows the seat to be removed without removing the mounting posts.

    One trick I use when installing toilet seats (RV and home) is to put small pieces of 3M molding tape (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...e?ie=UTF8&th=1) between the mounting posts and the porcelain. The tape keeps the mounting posts from sliding around after installation.

    @Don and Linda

    Could you possibly post a picture of the toilet seat mounted in the closed position from above? I've tried several others and don't like the way they fit or looked on the toilet because the bowl is very wide, especially towards the back. Also if you could post a picture of it with both sections lifted up...my wife doesn't like all of the little sections in the OEM seat because it's too hard to clean... she wants one with a smooth underside with just 2 or 4 bumpers for easy cleaning.
    Thanks!
