Go for the wood, if that's what you want, Maz. The grain is so close, the wood sealed, so I don't think hygiene would be a problem. Anyway I read recently that tests have found that there are often more germs on a car steering wheel than on a toilet. Gwyn

Wooden loo seats are easier to keep clean and don't scratch as easily as plastic seats. I use flushable Parazone Toilet cleaning wipes,they are also anti bacterial and they are really good. Sue.

make sure they dont have a join in the wood. If they do they wont last long, also not as cold as plastic ones !!

They are easy to keep clean Maz as they are sealed so no germs can get in the wood (unless scratched) so a good disinfectant wipe will do :-))

Never had a problem with my wooden loo seat, it was well varnished so easily wipe-able. I would say they are just as hygeinic as the plastic ones.

DON'T LAUGH !!!! It's serious! I need to get a new loo seat. Have always had a plastic one, but I like the look of wooden ones. Can anyone tell me if they are any different to clean or which is more/less hygienic please?! Bear in mind I have an 8 year old BOY !!! Try and keep the jokes to a bare (!) minimum please!! Maz. XX
