Hi all,

Haven’t been on here for a while but looking for some advice on Ideal Standard soft close toilet seat E791701.

We’ve got three of these but the newest one has a different design & I can fathom how to remove it for cleaning!

I’ve googled it with no success. There appears to be no buttons etc. nothing seems to move at all, but I don’t want to force it, thinking it’s a push for.

Left hand side has had the cover taken off,

Thanks in advance, H

The small vertical plastic slots on the seat, just next to the hinges, either press in to release the seat - or pull out (need to flick them out with Stanley blade or small slotted screwdriver if it’s pull out)

These are identical on the earlier design & don’t appear to be anything to do with the release of the seat unfortunately
 
Maybe it ‘just’ pulls straight off the pins, quite a lot of them do, this can require a lot of force after it’s been installed a while- especially if it is slightly misaligned.

If you’re unsure why not contact the manufacturers.
