A lot if you have kids!

I have a Wickes one and it's still going strong after 6 years.

If you have friends/family with the grace of a herd of elephants, you don't get loud slamming noises as the 'drop' the lid and/or seat ...

I don't know whether this applies but I suggest having all toilet seats in the house soft-close, or none. Otherwise you end up confusing them and noisily dropping the non-soft-close.

I like them, because you can just pull the lid and leave it to close.

but no one else in the house closes the lids, and as the only male in the house I'm the only one to lift the seat, so no one else cares what they are like.

Same here, but then you're having a pee somewhere else and forget it's not a soft close. I haven't broken anything yet, but it's only a matter of time.

Absolutely

Ain't that the truth!

It always amazes me that often, the woman who make most fuss about men leaving the toilet seat up, fail to lower the lid, which to my mind is an even bigger offence.

The extra cost of a soft close is a lot less than the cost of replacing a cracked pan.

ISTR something about the risk of injuries to young boys caused by conventional seats unexpectedly crashing down.
