All kidding aside, smart toilets are all the rage. While a number of my friends are installing these new luxury toilets in their homes, to the tune of a few thousand dollars, many of you don’t even know they exist.
Watch this video from a top manufacturer, Toto, which gives you a blow-by-blow (no pun intended) description of what actually takes place when you sit on a smart toilet. Don’t be shy, watch it.
A friend secretly confided to me that ever since he has been using a smart toilet, he feels he has the cleanest rear-end in town and the rest of us are walking around with dirty bottoms. I assured him I use baby wipes and he said, it just doesn’t compare to the sanitary powers of a smart toilet.
For example:
Air dryer
Heated seating
Foot warmer
Automatic flush
Remote control
Self-cleaning features
Built-in sensors that alert you to possible tank leaks
Self-deodorizer
Emergency flushing system during power outages
Nightlight
Slow closing lid
Bluetooth and MP3 capabilities so you can listen to tunes while you go
CNET recently had a story on smart toilets if you are interested in learning more.
Oh, poop.
Given how much time over a life that we spend on the “pot” we should indulge!!
Amen!
These are the standard toilets in Japan. They are in almost every home and almost every public restroom. In public restrooms, they have wave sounds and other white noise so the people in adjacent stalls can’t hear each other. It makes the rest of the world look barbaric. We are buying one as soon as we get back.
Never used one. Which one do you like?
They’re different models in the US, but I think this is closest to the one we have. http://www.totousa.com/washlet%C2%AE-b100-elongated
Thanks, DigiDame. I’m in the market for one of these soon, so really appreciate your up to the minute analysis!
One thing is missing, no squatty potty!
