Croydex were prompt in resolving a problem I had with one product.

Purchased a Flexi Fit Never Slips Slow Close toilet seat; only it doesn’t. One grip pad works fine but the other failed completely, no matter how much pressure applied and how tight the fixings are. Slow Close? Yes to a point about 100mm above completely closed, then bang, the seat drops. Extremely poor product.

Had two of these soft close toilet seats in two years , both broke in just 14 months , poor quality plastics cracked on the seat where the fixings are and on the actual fixings, do yourself a favour don’t bother

Avoid buying croydex Flexi toilet seat.
Really bad value for money won’t last more than 15months and croydex won’t do anything if the 1year warranty is up. Toilet fixtures are built too close to the toilet seat so they rub until the material starts to fray and the soft close fixtures slowly cracks the barrel as it’s not built to open an close often. Toilet seat cost almost £50 and won’t last 2 years and looks really cheap when it arrived. Overall really disappointing product. It’s up to you but I felt anyone thinking of buying this toilet seat should know the experience most people have had so this doesn’t not happen to you.

I followed the instructions exactly to install a flexi-fit top fix toilet seat.

All seemed to go to plan, I lined up the fixing correctly, removed the sticky pad covers, stuck the mounts down, tightened the bolts and installed the seat.

As soon as I closed the seat the vertical posts the seat attaches to flexed forward due to the pressure exerted on them by the seat's weight, pulling up the mount surrounds that were stuck down onto the toilet itself.

I tried to tighten the bolts more but due to the fixing being made of rubber it just pulls up out of the hole it was placed into and bunches up under the mount cover.

The seat works but the entire connection with the toilet flexes and creaks every time I use it and I doubt it will last too long before coming out of the fixing hole entirely.

I do not see how a rubber mount holding the bolt will ever stay rigid enough to withstand the forces exerted upon it of the toilet seat opening and closing.

Maybe what they meant by Flexi-Fit was that the whole thing flexes all the time!

Most ridiculous non slip hinge fittings by way of adhesive pads which become unintentionally stuck and then a nightmare to remove without damaging but the worst thing was that when fitted (After a good hour of messing about) the seat doesn't close properly because there isn't enough clearance between the hinge and the bracket. I emailed the Croydex 'help line' with photos of the non closing seat but at the time of writing this review they have ignored.

As we need to use the toilet I went and purchased a different seat from a different manufacturer, it took around 10 minutes to fit, it closes perfectly and it doesn't slip.

Don't waste your time and money with this product or company.

Endured one of these toilet seats for a year then put it in the dustbin.
Impossible to fit securely because of pathetic plastic fittings. Hinge contraption difficult to clean and seat easily becomes detached from hinge.
Slow action means toilet is often flushed before closure which is not a good idea.
Pretentious over complicated design where simpliciy is really required.

Purchased a Croydex Sudbury Double Door bathroom cabinet. Nice cabinet, decent storage space, like the light, BUT! the on off switch only turns the light off and on it does not turn off the shaver charger and the damn thing buzz's away 24/7, really annoying when you want to relax in a hot bath in peace and quiet, can even hear it in the adjacent bedroom. This should be explained in the product info. Expensive mistake.

This is one of those (possibly) rare cases where you need some "after sales" support of a very cheap product you bought over a decade ago, and you are so surprised they still make the product and offer support, and the resolution is so unbelievably quick, and it has such a small but noticeable impact on your life that it leaves a good impression and you actively think "I will leave these guys a good review". It wasn't solicited in any way, shape, or form. Just came to Trustpilot to express some positivity on this occasion!

I bought a cheap 3-compartment soap dispenser from Amazon 12 years ago, then replaced it about 5 years ago because it broke and I had liked the product so much. I didn't need to replace the mounting plate which was siliconed to the wall when I replaced the unit, and so re-used the old one at this point.

(EXCELLENT product by the way. It's one of those things you ignore daily, then one day when it's not there you curse regularly!)

Anyway eventually I did need to replace the mounting plate which is siliconed to the wall due to needing to repair some tiles after 12 years. I hadn't kept the new mounting plate from 5 years ago. Because I'm a huge cheapskate, I didn't bother buying a new soap dispenser which comes with spare mounting plate (let's call it "avoiding plastic waste", not "cheapskate"...)

This story is getting hugely complicated. Anyway...

I had a feeling that I should be careful when selecting a replacement silicone, as the special silicone glue they provided, which was unfailing for 12 full years of heavy use, clearly had done an excellent job.

Maybe it's a common product in a different form, maybe not. I wasn't taking my chances. When full of soap this thing could break a bone if it fell off the shower onto your big toe.

I emailed Croydex (a UK company - hurrah) expecting a long wait, and a "sorry we can't send out spare silicone packs" or "this product has been discontinued" but NO!

Had a response WITHIN 3 minutes.

Had a packet of silicone within 24 hours on my doorstep! It was even branded "Croydex" on the packet. What kind of service is this?!

This is why we should support UK companies as much as possible.

Croydex flexi fit toilet seat is a waste of money. Sticky pads became unstuck in less than 24 hours should advertise it as the swing toilet seat quick release releases for no reason. Worst toilet seat I've ever owned DO NOT BUY!!!

Hinge snapped across at the screw hole after two years light use - obviously a manufacturing defect but they refused to replace.

I purchased a Croydex Flexi-Fix toilet seat about 6 months ago and I have to say the finish on the metal parts has aged terribly in that time. A toilet that is seldom used looks worse than one that was in the house when we moved in. Very disappointed at the level of quality given how happy I have been with their other products, not to mention the price as well!

Purchased and fitted "Soft Close - Quick Release Seat" to downstairs toilet. The hinge mounts were of two different types preventing the seat from locking on the spigots; looks like they have a configuration control problem. However an email to Croydex customer service resulted in an immediate response and the correct parts arrived within three days - so kudos for fixing the issue so promptly.

Review of Croydex Sit Tight Carron Soft Close Toilet Seat, Wood, White, 47 x 36.5 x 6 cm
Arrived from Amazon Yesterday at 5.09pm, everything in order, fitted in the evening, used it a couple of times this morning (in the spare toilet) and at 12.41pm today notice a chip in in the seat rim, nothing has been near it to chip it so must be a manufacturing fault. I will not be buying from Croydex again, I should have heeded the amazon reviews. Will have to remove and return to amazon.

Easy to fit, using screws pushed up from beneath the WC. Looks good. I hope the seat remains a trouble-free investment. My only gripe is that one of the four pads beneath the seat fell off whilst fixing the seat in place and so I have taken the precaution of putting a dab of glue on the fixing points of all four pads as the other three also looked vulnerable to becoming detached.

Just spent nearly an hour and a half fitting this - first the dome shaped washer and the silver one kept falling off the screw and trying to manoeuvre your hands to hold them on while you put the little washer on was impossible TILL I stuck the dome washer and silver one together with cellotape then when I put them on the long screw they stayed there till I got the small washer on also it didn't stick to the pan till it was nearly tightened ! The instruction sheet was confusing so I watched several you tube videos on how to do it. Well it's on now and looks nice l

Well the product looked nice. But it is impossible to understand or assemble the product - and there is no video on the site as the say. So lots of wasted time and and useless manual. Thanks?

Appalled with my recent purchase of Croydex “no more move” toilet seat. Didn’t even last one day; perhaps what Croydex means is that, you can no longer move! Poor quality and design, flimsy plastic with poor quality plastic fixings, so it’s no wonder it broke after a couple of uses. Would not recommend to others looking for a toilet seat, avoid this crap seat!
