    Can anyone tell me how to open this damn toilet to put one of the blue blocks in? Neither myself nor the wife can. The lid raises like a cm or 2 but feels like it’s being held down somehow.

      Grip with one hand on each side. Support lid with palms and fish around with finger tips to find the little latches inside that hold it shut. Push latch(es) in and finish raising the lid. Alternatively, raise one side by a few cms, when that releases raise the other side. Insert blue block. Replace lid until it clicks. Disinfect hands. Easy. Used to have one of these.

        good idea but it only rotates a tiny amount and wont turn any more. Even with the buttons pressed down.

      If it’s plastic, try squeezing the sides (ends towards each other) together firmly as you pull directly up

          Oh. Where the buttons are, that ring there should unscrew. It maybe rusty so you might need pliers.
