Incompatible to two different standard toilets,

This review is from: Safety 1st Prograde Toilet Lock, White and Silver - 1 Pack (Baby Product)
FYI: this lock attaches on to both toilet seat hinge bolts. I have a new standard size (not elongated) Bemis/Mayfair white wood core toilet lid with chromed metal hinges. The hinges were incompatible with this device (the lock would not allow proper attachment of the toilet seat to the bowl). To resolve this, I drilled out both holes slightly on the Safety 1st Lock (from about 7/16" to 1/2"). Although the lock would now allow the lid to properly attach to the bowl, the lock would not allow the lid to be tilted up far enough to prevent it from falling down again when released (the body of the lock is too thick). If the device is compatible to your toilet and seat, it will probably function well (I like the design). However, I suspect that the lock is not compatible to many standard sized toilet seats... perhaps a little bit more refining of the design is necessary. Not one, but TWO design issues prevented this lock from working on my toilet.

Great Product! Keeps My Child from Playing with Toilet Water!,
April 25, 2009 Diana Martin - See all my reviews
When I discovered my 2-year old son helping our dog to drink from the toilet, I knew that something had to be done. I didn't want just any lock, especially one that would end up disgusting having to be attached to inside the bowl. When I found this lock, I definitely did my research online first to read all the reviews I could. It was relatively easy to install (I didn't realize I had to take off the toilet seat first), and it definitely keeps my son from opening the toilet now! Now if only I can get the men in the house to remember to close the lock, everything would be dandy!

Worked for a while...,

This review is from: Safety 1st Prograde Toilet Lock, White and Silver - 1 Pack (Baby Product)
I had this toilet lock for about 6-8 months and it did the job. I give it a lower rating for the following reasons:
- It was difficult to fit snugly. Required tightening every few weeks
- It left a permanent mark on the toilet lid
- Once it became loose, it no longer locked appropriately... so then it was pointless
- Our friend's 6 year old lifted the lid without realizing he shouldn't- and it snapped into tiny pieces. He is by no means large or strong- it just took one good tug on the toilet lid and he got enough leverage to snap it apart. I imagine our 2 year old is not far behind.
All in all, I'm looking for a different lock next time. This one looked nice, but I have doubts about it's durability.
