Capable of supporting bathroom-goers of up to 1,000 lbs. in weight, the Adjustable Advantage is a toilet accessory that accommodates everyone in the office -- from the petite receptionist to the more rotund manager.
The topic is very rarely discussed, but the reality persists: Overweight people have serious trouble using ordinary toilets. As a response, North Carolina-based entrepreneurs developed the Adjustable Advantage, which features wings that expand to fit posteriors of any size and a seat design that can sustain half a ton of weight. The product will set your company back $180 and includes a lifetime warranty -- not bad for a toilet seat that can withstand more weight than the actual toilet.
The Adjustable Advantage isn't simply for overweight customers; it's also proven helpful for pregnant women, people living with sciatic nerve complications and hospital patients. Personally, I'm excited because I won't have to lift the seat with this device -- I can just slide it to the side.
