Brilliant thanks. 20 years ago my dad would have to call out a plumber to sort a simple job like this. Now thanks to KZread we can do these simple fixes by ourselves 👍🏻

Struggled for ages to find out how to remove this as it's different to others in our house. You legend, it was soo easy!
Clear instructions Bill, thank you. Unlike so many other videos that just spend time waffling. Excellent tutorial.
Great instructional video, short, clear to understand with no waffle, no pointless music and good closeups so we can see what is going on. Btw i tried it and it worked. Bravo and Thank you!

Absolute legend mate. I had 3 ppl come to my place and quoted me from $700 to $3500 to fix the issue i had with the buttons. I was able to do it myself after watching your video and it only costed me $20. Keep up the good work :)

Dude you've saved my life! I didn't know how to turn and fix a pressed flush on the toilet. Love you and thank you!
Brilliant video. Removed lid, fixed lazy valve, replaced lid, in less time than it took to watch the video. No mucking around!
A simple and 'to the point' video. Thanks for the help❤
thanks a lot for your help, just fixed my toilet on Christmas Eve!!!
Brilliant!!! I wanted to put a toilet sanitiser in the cistern but couldn't lift it to open. I thought I wasted my money but now I know what to do. Thank you, much appreciated, 😊 ☀️
Thank you for your video. The buttons had stopped working on my toilet cistern and I managed to fix them with the help of your video. Many thanks!!!

Thank you straightforward simple and visual unlike other, mines been leaking water for ages and I didn’t know how too get the lid off, next fitting a new bath 😂
Brilliant, I have been trying to figure that out for months well done, great detailed instructions.
Thank you so much. It bothers me so many days how to open until I found your video
Glad I caught your vid before I ever take the lid off. Not knowing this devilish little secret would've ended with me smashing up the entire bog. Possibly the bathroom with it, so many thanks !
You are the man , I really appreciate your work, you saved my life! I don’t know what to do to thank you enough.
Thanks for sharing the video, Bill. 👍👍👍
I never knew that they were screwed on. Thanks for showing how to do this, Bill.

Thankyou so much I was being very lazy to call plumber for over a week for this small task. Now it's done, so easy it was.
I once used brute force to open one of these type of lids, as I didn´t know some of them were locked. This video was really helpful :D
Omg yes! Saved my bacon! Have guests coming to our new house in 20 mins and I couldn’t work out how to open to add the blue water tablet into the cistern! Thank you! ❤
Thank you mate 👍! This has helped fix my daughter's toilet...
Glad I found this. I just moved to a house with a double flush toilet and was looking up what the purpose of a double flush was. I learned that and then I just happen to find this video👍

Thanks for this video, just saved me buying replacement parts or 'getting someone in'. thanks!
Thank you SO much for this gem of a How-to video. I have one of the buttons and they seemed to drop... couldn't figure out how to remove the unit. Thought I was going to have to revert to a sledgehammer and a new toilet. You are a superstar...thanks to your video I was able to fix it, with a (lot of) help from my missus. Cheers! 😊

What would I do without KZread?! Thanks for a great vid, helped me fix a running cistern
OMG you trick work I just finished trying my Toilet lid.. Awesome Thanks you made my morning..
Thank you for this video, I did not have a clue how to get the lid off before I saw your video. The little button had less of a ledge to lever it up then I expected and it helped to stick the little button back in first to make sure the 3 holes were all lined up when putting it back together and hold the ring down and remove the small button and screw down the central plastic screw. I was peering in before that with a flashlight and poor eyesight thinking I will never get this lined up. The float was stuck on the bar it slides up and down on, I prodded it and it got unstuck and slid down to where it's supposed to go when the cistern is empty and then the cistern started to refill. I hope I don't have to go back there again. Thank you again.
Fantastic!! My fiancée has one of these and hasn’t been able to remove the lid. Sorted.
perfect!!!! worked like a charm! :) finally.....my blue thingy made it into the tank! I am so very pleased. thank you very much! you are totally brilliant! :)
Worked like a charm. Thanks mate!
Give this guy a medal :D
Thanks very much for this brilliant video. I have been trying for so long to open the lid.
Bloody Fantastic, I have tried for years to remove the lid. Great thanks
Thank you for sharing, it really made a difference. Have a lovely day!
Thank you so much! I have been nearly destroying my lid to try to figure it out and because it isn't brand new I couldn't look up the instructions that came with it
