Big John Toilet Seat
Latest figures, as reported by The Sun, show that nearly 50% of Britain’s population are classed as overweight, with a further 17% of males and 21% of females classed as obese. Approximately, 1 in 11 deaths in the UK are attributed to obesity – this is the highest of all countries in Europe and more than double France’s figures.
In addition to this, 34 percent of Americans over the age 20 are obese, and 67% are overweight.
As a result, Big John Toilet seats have seen sales more than double over the last two years as people are now starting look for extra large toilet seats.
The seats, manufactured by American based Big John Toilet Seat & Support, measure 19 inches wide and 2 inches high with standard toilet seats measuring just 14 inches.
"Our business this year is up about 60 percent over last year and last year we were up 50 percent over the year before," reports Scott Kramer, owner of Big John Toilet Seat & Support.
They can be purchased in the UK from Manage At Home, whom provided mobility aids for around the home for the elderly, disabled and those with mobility difficulties:
