Description
The Padded Toilet Seat Cushion 4 Inch doubles the padding of the standard cushion, putting four inches of foam on a standard toilet seat for sitters who need both softness and height. The cover wipes clean easily, and the cushion fits most standard toilets and commodes.
- Four Inches of Foam – Deep foam padding cushions the seat – maximum softness for sore or fragile sitters
- Real Added Height – Four inches raises the sitting surface – knees and hips bend less on the way down and up
- Wipe-Clean Cover – The cover wipes clean easily – hygiene handled with a cloth, not a laundry cycle
- Fits Most Standard Toilets – Sized for standard toilet seats – the same cushion serves the bathroom and a bedside commode
Height and Softness in One Cushion
A raised toilet seat solves the height problem with hard plastic, and a thin pad solves softness without height. This cushion does both jobs in foam: four inches of padding lift the sitter to a height where standing up takes less knee and hip effort, while the padded ring spreads pressure for people who find a bare seat painful within seconds.
Like its 2 inch sibling, it fits most standard toilets and carries a cover that wipes clean easily, the only practical finish for this location. The manufacturer notes this cushion is the same as EMS B5071 from the Essential Medical Supply line it acquired.

Why Choose the 4 Inch Over the 2 Inch
The extra two inches are for people whose problem is not only soreness but the sit-to-stand itself: post-hip-surgery patients, tall users, and anyone whose knees object to a low seat. Foam gives the height without the institutional feel of a plastic riser.
- Easier Standing – Four inches of lift reduces the bend at hip and knee – transfers get safer and less painful
- Soft Where Risers Are Hard – Foam instead of molded plastic – the sitting surface forgives bony hips and tailbones
- Hygiene in Seconds – The cover wipes clean – no removing, laundering, and refitting a fabric cover
