Abstract: A method for securing a toilet tank to a toilet bowl through an attachment assembly. The method includes the steps of engaging a valve to the tank through an opening in the tank, moving a mounting bracket over the valve through an opening in the mounting bracket to position the mounting bracket adjacent to the tank, the mounting bracket having at least three mounting locations with fasteners attached thereto, coupling a valve nut to the valve to secure the mounting bracket between the tank and the valve nut, and securing the mounting bracket to the bowl through the fasteners. The at least three fasteners are disposed external to the tank and couple the tank to the bowl without directly engaging the tank.

Abstract: A toilet seat package includes a toilet seat, a cover, and a band. The cover encloses the toilet seat. The cover includes a first side, a second side, a third side, a fourth side, a fifth side, a sixth side, a first slot, and a second slot. The third side is contiguous with the first side and the second side. The fourth side is contiguous with the first side. The fifth side is contiguous with the first side, the second side, the third side, and the fourth side. The sixth side is contiguous with the first side, the second side, the third side, and the fourth side. The first slot extends from the first side through the fifth side. The second slot extends from the second side through the fifth side. An interaction between the band and the toilet seat biases the toilet seat against the sixth side.
