Brevia Quick-Release Toilet Seat (K-4774 & K-4775)

Very straightforward and easy to install next time I would probably get one with a slow clothes feature

I have stuck with Kohler brand replacements as they offer a predictable color match and fit. Although my toilet was 25 years old, I was able to find a perfect replacement. It was reassuring that a window on the outside package showed the color. An important reminder is the opened packages cannot be returned so check the color and measurements carefully. I installed the new seat in less than 10 minutes. Although light weight it seems sturdy. Hopefully it will last 25 years as the original.

I’ve been searching for a toilet lid that would fit my Kohler and I took a chance on this product. Kohler makes so many toliet lids and usually the videos don’t really show all of the details needed to see if it will fit. But the video for this product was perfect. It showed the style of the catch and release and how it fits. Very thankful because I’ve returned so many because they were not the right one. It arrived pretty quick, packaged well and it was easy to install. It’s not very expensive but then again it is made of hard plastic. The product is great but giving it a 4 because Kohler really should show what the latches look like in their videos.

Perfect fit, and color. Works great when looking for an inexpensive replacement

I needed the quiet close version with quick release. It seems this option isn’t available in the Brevia line. The Cachet line may have the feature combination, though at a higher cost. After inspecting the quick release quiet close version I was replacing, I discovered something Kohler doesn’t seem to advertise: their Brevia line the same hinge part across Quiet-Close and non-Quiet-Close quiet close version, with the difference being only two parts in the hinge hardware. By swapping in the damped “Quiet-Close” hinge cartridges from the old soft-close seat into the K-4774-0 Brevia Quick-Release, I created a Brevia hybrid seat with: The Quick-Release function (from the 4774) The Quiet-Close soft-close hinge (from the donor seat) Perfect fit, because the shell was already molded with grooves to accept both types of hinges The K-1134250-0 ($27) hinge kit shows the two dampers I replaced in this toilet seat; the parts on the diagonal far left and right of the product image. With the quiet close feature, the K-4774-0’s lid seems to close slightly slower than the one I replaced; that one has a slightly heavier lid. Though, it’s a trade off for what I needed and at this price, while keeping most of the K-4774-0’s parts. Otherwise the toilet seat is sturdy, easy to remove, with the quick release feature. And with my re-engineering it’s now a soft close toilet seat.

Very easy installation

I recently purchased this toilet seat, but overall I am quite disappointed with the product. 1. There was some orange stain on the top cover(first photo) and the area that comes into contact with the top cover. (second photo) The small packaging bag for the nail stuff was fluorescent orange, so I want to assume the color transferred from it. I was planning to wash it before use, but it’s still disappointing to see staining on a brand-new product, and it feels unhygienic. In addition, there was a noticeable deep scratch on the back. 2. If you see the video, the product was advertised as having a quiet-closing feature, but it does not function that way at all. Even when I tried to close it gently (as I did with my previous seat, which also wasn’t quiet-close), it slammed down much louder. 3. The biggest issue is the hinge design. I bought this specifically because it was advertised as easy to remove so that I could clean it easily, but the hinges are made of plastic and are very stiff. They do not detach easily, so I have to use force each time, which makes me concerned about durability. The hinge covers are also plastic and extremely difficult to open. I even had to use a screwdriver to pry them open during installation. I already threw away my old seat, so I’ll have to use this one for now. But overall, the build quality, functionality, and ease of use all fall short of expectations.

i bought this model toilet seat because i thought it might be easier to clean and chemicals wouldn't hurt it so bad as a wooden one. I didnt really read the reviews before hand. To me its just 14 dollars.. these days that doesnt buy much.. I go to McDonalds for breakfast and it costs me 8 bucks so to me this seat is really cheap. Koehler usually makes pretty good stuff but this is the exception. The problem is mainly in the mounting bolts. The bottom nylon aligner/nut... The top of it is pointed and its purpose is to center the nut into the porcelain. And also this combo nut does not have a very strong structure to it. If you over tighten this nut while installing it just strips out. One can use the old hardware or they do sell the regular nylon nuts in hardware stores. You shouldn't have to modify something that you just bought but we all know its not a perfect world. One thing i noticed during installation was that if you keep checking to see if its tight the hinge wobbles and it will trick you into thinking its the nut and thats when it gets stripped. The hinge is hollow plastic and then there are some straight pins made of plastic that fit into it. End result is a sloppy fit. After i put the little support tabs on the bottom of the seat it fit alot tighter. I like the plastic over the wood becuase it looks alot more sanitary.

Fits perfectly, well-made, extremely easy to install. Be sure to measure your toilet before purchase.

The plastic is solid and the cover has a nice modern look. It fits an American Standard round bowl and the white color is proper. The detachable feature is nice and the bolts are steel. I had a cheaper seat that I gave back - the lid was so thin that you can't sit on it without its collapsing - this one is stronger. If you can't find the instructions that's because they are printed on the outside of the box and are not very clear to read or follow but it does work logically. The inside of the box has the product, two attachment sets and two little rubber feet that go to fill their spaces under the seat. That means that when you drop the seat, rubber, not plastic hits the rim. All in all it is a good product - better than the cheap wooden ones with the heavy lid that doesn't completely cover the seat or the cheap thin plastic ones that collapse. The detachable aspect is a plus but you should be careful not to misalign it.
