Exact shape may vary, and can range from Oval to a more rectangular shape. Round Toilet seats have a more rounded shape which is more standard.

2. Type:

The type of toilet seat can make a difference on the way it feels and the life span of your seat. Wooden seats will last very long and will stay a neutral temperature during extreme hold or cold. Plastic seats will also last quite long however, they often run a little more affordable. Padded seats are designed for added comfort and include a padded surface.
