Kohler Brevia Quiet-Close elongated seat review

A KOHLER plastic seat with Quiet-Close, Grip-Tight bumpers that stop it sliding, Quick-Attach hardware and quick-release hinges — and a fit for compact elongated bowls too.

What the listing puts in writing

  • Quiet-Close seat and lid; Grip-Tight bumpers hold the seat firmly in place
  • Quick-Attach hardware for fast, secure installation
  • Color-matched plastic hinges
  • Fits most elongated and compact elongated toilets
  • Not returnable to Kohler Co. if opened or outside the original packaging

Two bowl lengths

Compact elongated toilets are common in small American bathrooms, and a standard elongated seat overhangs them. At 18 inches, the Brevia is stated to fit both. On this shelf, no other seat says so.

Two ways to stop sliding

Grip-Tight bumpers under the seat hold it to the rim; Quick-Attach hardware fixes it from above. Together they target the seat that shifts every time someone sits.

Read before opening

The fifth bullet is a warning: KOHLER does not take toilet seats back once opened. Measure from the bolt holes to the front of the bowl before you cut the plastic.

The questions we get

What is a compact elongated toilet?

An elongated bowl shortened to fit a small bathroom, between round and full elongated in length. Many seats sold as elongated overhang it. KOHLER states the Brevia fits both, at 18 inches long.

What are Grip-Tight bumpers?

Rubber pads under the seat that grip the rim of the bowl so the seat does not slide sideways when you sit down. They address the same complaint as Mayfair's stay-tight hinges, from the other side.

Can I return it if it does not fit?

The listing says KOHLER does not accept toilet seats back once opened or out of their packaging. Measure the bowl before opening the box.
