We had a real oak one for a while. Ultimately it cracked, giving the
back of my leg a nasty pinch. The plastic one (lowers slowly by itself,
as if we weren't capable of lowering it ourselves without a loud crash)
that came with the toilet is thin plastic that relies on structure for
strength -- and I feel really unsafe standing on it to reach the top
shelf over the toilet. In addition, the underside is a real bitch to
clean.

Why does anyone ever design a surface that needs to be cleaned WITH
COMPLEX NOOKS AND CRANNIES? WTF do they teach in design school -- that
we LIKE to clean?
