No, all toilet seats are not the same size.

Toilet seats come in various shapes, sizes, and styles to fit different toilet bowls. The most common toilet bowl shapes are round and elongated, and each shape has different dimensions.

Here are some factors that affect toilet seat size:

  • Toilet bowl shape: Round bowls are generally smaller than elongated bowls.
  • Manufacturer: Different manufacturers may have slightly different dimensions for their toilet bowls and seats.
  • Style: Some toilet seats have unique features, like extra padding or a built-in bidet, which can affect their overall size.

To ensure you get the right fit:

  • Measure your existing toilet seat. This will give you the most accurate dimensions for your bowl.
  • Check the manufacturer's specifications for the toilet seat. This will ensure compatibility with your bowl.

Note: When purchasing a new toilet seat, it's always best to choose one specifically designed for your toilet model.
