Toilet Seat Hinges
Over the years, I have had to replace the toilet seat hinges ( wooden seat & lid ) several times.... the reason being the poor design of how the "supports" for the hinges are "connected" to the washer plates that hold the seat to the pan.
The pic shows the type I have been using... after a period of use, the small screws underneath become loose, and the more use, the more slack there is making the seat slide about, and thus increasing the unstable situation. this necesitates the removal of the seat, and trying to tighten up those little screws sufficiently,... an almost impossible task..
Does anyone have a good alternative type, that is not "out of this world" in price, that will not rely on "how tight I can get this screw done up "
I replaced mine recently. Argos job. The problem was it was made of wood, and the screws kept popping out the hinges. I'm not good at DIY, but when I looked the holes became too big, so I couldn't just screw them back in. Maybe it was possible with rawplugs, but I gave up on that idea. I was quite annoyed as it only lasted 3 months.
£40 later I went to my local B&Q and got another one there, plastic one - which seems to have lasted a bit longer. One of those soft closing ones. Which is nice except I live on my own, so there is no-one other than me to wake up 
But at least it still works I suppose.
I think the Argos one was [-Censored-] and the B&Q one seems much better.
Amusingly I had to buy some new hinges for the bogseat yesterday as I'd stood on the seat to look out the bathroom window to see what a noise I'd heard outside was while using the facilities, and the left hinge snapped at a weak point... 
Bought these ones off ebay:

Only replaced the seat a few months back, and I broke it already... 
Yeah... good luck with them... they are the same design as the one with the bar across... the screw under the big "disc" is the weak point.. Have trawled through many pics on Google images, and eventually found this type on Ebay for £4.99

Which, "look" as if they will do the job... if not,.. I may find some other use for them, and they will go into the "junk box" as spares !.. Worth a try for less than a fiver ! ! ..
@shutter £4.99 yes ,,,,,,,, But Beware the toilet seat hinges with metal nuts have a habit of rusting , then become hard to unscrew , better to get the plastic screw type

Not had any issues with the current hinges (aside from my breaking one!) as they're of the same type, and if need be, there's always JB-Weld, damned good stuff, makes Araldite look like snot...
