My parents especially my Dad are the type that want raised toilets, but don't want the look of disability (commode). This toilet seat was perfect.  You don't realize that it is raised and guests have no issue using the seat.  My father who usually has very lukewarm responses to anything we buy for him said, "I love it".  That review is a 10 in my book.  It was easy to install and use same day.  I have been sharing the link for this seat with everyone I know that could use it.
