Japanese toilets.....
 

......are freaking awesome.

Only this mob could invent an electronic bog. The seat is heated - nice. Need to fart or do a noisy poo? No problem. Press a button and a crappy tune plays to cover your bottom cacophony. Push another button and a jet of warm water shoots up your jacksie, ensuring a squeaky clean finish.

I likey. I want one.

Amazing aren't they, invented in the 1980's I believe (if not before).

In South Korea last year our rather basic hotel had one of those loos and a sauna shower - nice. The his and hers button with different angled water jets was a nice touch - no pun intended.

I'm surprised they haven't taken off in the west.

Those toilets are great. I never found the sound systems to be powerful enough to cover my cacophony.

Was that Toma Clapper ?

The old sound system they used at Glastonbury is up for sale.;)

Now that's a comparison for bogs. The Glastonbury Sunday crapper versus the Japanese toilet.

Yuk!! Although a heated seat in winter would be nice, water squirting my private parts without my control is not what I want- especially in the middle of the night (is the water body temperature, or is it cold?). I am always suspicious of electronic gadgets- the more complicated they are, the more there is to go wrong......imagines burnt bottom and being blown off the toilet by an especially vicious water jet.

Re: Japanese toilets.....
 

You control it. It's not a random surprise squirt.

The cause of so much unhappiness in the bedroom.

Re: Japanese toilets.....
 

I've read way too much Terry Pratchett to risk sitting on something like that :D

Re: Japanese toilets.....
 

It's just...not up my alley....

I rely on a cold seat to wake me in the morning. I mean most of us have warm showers (that is civilised) but warm seats...shear decadence.

Besides: wait for the household/office lingerer to finish then go straight in. The seat will be pre-warmed.

Re: Japanese toilets.....
 

Unhappy for some.

We used to fit loads of them in the U.K for disabled use. We fitted one for a bloke that had lost both his arms, god knows how he pushed the buttons:ohmy:
