    they are not more durable than plastic. Plastic seats last longer as they dont discolour or stain

    How do you feel about molded trees vs. plastic trees?

    Same ideal  Had the same plastic Christmas three for about 20 years
    now.   Does not shed any needles and you don't have to haul it home in
    the cold.

    Yep, toilet seats and trees are best plastic.

    My favorite toilet seats are the ones with a built in damper so they self-lower slowly by themselves. No more seat slamming if it slips out
    of your hand.

    I picked up a couple of round ones at the HD several years ago and
    despite my concern that the damping action would fade over time with
    use, they're still doing fine. Just cost a few bucks more than a
    mid-grade seat...

    Had them in my last house. When we moved here with everything brand
    new, it was one of the first things I did,change the toilet seats to the
    slow close.

    One of those things you don't miss if you ever had them but once you do,
    never want to be without.

    Wait a second. I saw one with a damper but I thought it was like my
    fireplace damper and it would stop everything.

    self-lower slowly by themselves. No more seat slamming if it slips out

    Then I talked to a friend who said since got one he kept getting
    constipate. So I was right; dont' get one.

    You must be drinking prune juice.
