BriggsVacuity toilet seat

Posted by Mark Antonucci on October 08, 2002 at 13:45:53:
HI, I just bought a Briggs Vacuity 4200el (elongated) from a local pluming supply center in my area. My wife bought a Bemis Toilet seat (18.5 inch model) but the toilet seat seems to be slightly bigger than the toilet (the seat overhangs by about a half inch). Using the measuring directions on the side of the seat box, I measured from the mounting holes to the edge of the front outer rim. I measured 18 inches. So I assumed an 18.5 inch seat was too big. I was unable to find an 18 inch toilet seat anywhere! Am I doing something wrong? I called Briggs and they told me the 18.5 inch seat is what goes on the toilet. Thanks! Mark
