raised toilet
Taller bathroom fixture
A raised toilet is a toilet with a higher seat than standard models, designed for people who have difficulty sitting down or standing up—particularly the elderly or those with mobility impairments.
The extra height reduces strain on knees and hips.
Some are built-in fixtures; others are portable seats that fit over existing toilets: We installed a raised toilet after Dad's hip surgery.
