The TOTO washlet is a little more expensive, but it has a fantastically sleek and luxurious look and feel. I purchased my TOTO washlet from Sitting Stone ([www.sittingstone.com]) and there is absolutely no way I could live without it. I am thinking of upgrading all of the toilets in my house to the TOTO Neorest, which is an integrated TOTO toilet, TOTO bidet seat combination. I am really enjoying my Sitting Stone.

Do you take a shower without water and just wipe yourself clean with a towel or paper? Of course not, otherwise you wouldn't be very clean and no one would want to be near you. Seriously the same principal applies to how we clean ourselves after we use the bathroom. The GENESIS bidet is an affordable and cost effecient way to stay clean and prevent anal disease. The GENESIS bidet sprays warm or cold water than can be both temperature and pressure controlled. It has an air dyer, deodorizer and a heated seat. Paper should be used for drying not cleaning.

All the stupid comments about not needing to butt-wash or wiping somehow being more sanitary or the water making things more dirty... You all have obviously never used a bidet-equipped toilet, so please pull your heads out of your butts and actually try one. It's the best, most comfortable way to clean your privates, the water is clean and even warm, it can be directed at the right place, and all those people walking around with hemmorhoids and yeast infections and whatever horrid other problems from using paper wipes can finally get some relief. Wiping is just one giant waste of virgin forest. You're so worried about spraying something someplace, but both men and women already spray it all over when they go.

]]> <![CDATA[Kohler C3 Series Toilet Seats Offer Hands-Free Butt-Washing, American Style]]> i would like to purchase this product. seriously.

i think toilet paper is pretty gross for the most part. just not very effective really.

baby wipes + toilet paper is good though. but i don't have baby wipes at my office. though it annoys me enough i might just buy some and bring them in. then i can promote them (similar to Will Smith) to everyone.

]]> <![CDATA[Kohler C3 Series Toilet Seats Offer Hands-Free Butt-Washing, American Style]]> Why do I get the feeling that the all-powerful Toilet Paper lobby is going to be fighting this tooth and nail? This is their global warming.

Soon enough we'll be seeing full page ads in the New York Times paid for by the obvious shadow group the "American Sanitation Studies" declaring that the "question" unsanitary wiping practices is "far from settled."

I can see it now.

The stormclouds are gathering. The TP industry is planning. And that Brawny guy? He's pissed.

I almost got the NeoRest but it seems to only adds a motorized seat, not worth it to me. (I couldn't "take a test drive" and didn't have the guts for a Jackass-style dump in the showroom.) The wand only swings out as necessary and cleans and deodorizes on each use. The angle, temperature and pressure of the stream are all adjustable (but our model doesn't remember each user's preference like a memory car seat). There's a separate front stream option for women, or anyone who likes that sort of thing. Air dry takes a long time, so we still use toilet paper.

Having the control panel on the toilet is definitely stupid. A remote control panel like the Toto and the Kohler C3 200 is the way to go.

The other great Toto feature is SanaGloss. The porcelain finish doesn't stain and rinses clean.

Toto kicks the ass of American toilets and wipes the floor with them, but competition is always good. The Kohler seems very similar.

"Have you ever sprayed a muddy car with a hose, the mud splashes everywhere! imagine this in your toilet."

... Yikes. How powerful do you think this is? I'm sure the Tim Allen souped up more power edition would rip you a new a-hole, but I get the idea this toilet is more like a cleaning sprinkle rather than a full on water blasting.

]]> <![CDATA[Kohler C3 Series Toilet Seats Offer Hands-Free Butt-Washing, American Style]]> Ever since I became old enough to care about my backside being clean, I've wanted one of these dealies. I often find that...hmm...the clean-up stage takes more time than the...uh...elimination stage of my visits to the bowl. Seems like poor design to me.

For all those worried about "paper being better" -- I've always figured the way to use one of these sprays would be to use a bit of paper first if necessary (shall we way, to remove the bulk of the problem), then the spray, then some paper to assure all's dry. Just because your toilet is equipped with a spray doesn't mean you can't use the paper...you'll just use less of it.

This Kohler toilet washes both wands both before and after each use.

They thought of everything with this toilet.

And yes, wiping is nasty. Bidet functionality is the only way your hind end is going to be truly clean. Not to mention, it's much easier on your skin this way.

]]> <![CDATA[Kohler C3 Series Toilet Seats Offer Hands-Free Butt-Washing, American Style]]> I dunno... I am starting to have serious doubts about this. One, how does the little wand thingmagig aim? What if it misses slightly and your a little ... uhhhh.... "loose" that day? Then you got one big mess!

Two, what if the stream of water coming up is wider then the butt-cheek-spread factor? What then (especially in consideration of the previously mentioned potential problem)?

Three, 1300 bucks?!?!? Hell, 2 dollar walmart whitey-tighties seem to be able to clean that area pretty damn well after 24-48 hours of wearing them, and they can be thrown away OR turned inside out OR washed in a real washer!

Four, why dont any of these high tech toilets have elevation control?!?!?! Everybody knows what I am talking about .... you get used to a certain height of sitting on your Primary Use Toilet (PUT ©). Then, you go to use some other toilet, and you find you are not in the Optimal Shitting Position. Your left either wanting to lower the floor by an inch or two, or getting a stand an inch or two high to put your feet on. The angles are all messed up and you simply are left without the Optimal Shitting Position satisfaction!

I really am going to have to design a toilet someday.

]]> <![CDATA[Kohler C3 Series Toilet Seats Offer Hands-Free Butt-Washing, American Style]]> Toliet paper isn't sanitary. If you like wiping your ass until it bleeds then that's all you. The only way your going to have a clean ass is if you throw some water on it, or dip your ass in the tub.

And for those of you that don't get it, this is a damn toliet that washes your ass after you take a shit. So, if you get out the shower after cleaning your ass and 2 hours later you gotta take a dump, whatcha gonna do? hop back in the shower to clean your ass again?

]]> <![CDATA[Kohler C3 Series Toilet Seats Offer Hands-Free Butt-Washing, American Style]]> Look, washing is actually more hygienic than wiping. With toilet paper, you're really just smearing feces around. Where I'm from, bum-washing cultures like Malays and Indians think us Chinese are kinda gross for that reason.

(That said, I use tp since all the bathrooms I've ever lived with are Western-style. Biologists are a lot more cavalier about germs because we know that a) they're everywhere and b) the vast majority are harmless. At the end of the day, as long as your hands are clean, your backside is no one else's business.)

Gizmodo is still the same - talking about shit. But this time it is actually funny. I just miss any comments about this being an iPhone ripoff.

Wow, honestly, these kind of jokes are getting really old. No one forces you to read Gizmodo. Surprise Surprise, look at the dozens of 3GSM posts they have. None of which have nothing to do with the iPhone.

As for the toilet, I was watching an episode of Kelly Osbourne: Turning Japanese (I have no clue why I was watching..don't ask), and I saw a toilet very similar to this. The Japanese have had toilets like these for quite a long time now. I'd would definitely be interested in getting one of these in the future.

]]> <![CDATA[Kohler C3 Series Toilet Seats Offer Hands-Free Butt-Washing, American Style]]> evilkingteapot: I agree. I guess if i just washed my ass in the shower with umm..my hand (seriously, i do, but with soap) that it would make for some stinky handshakes.

]]> <![CDATA[Kohler C3 Series Toilet Seats Offer Hands-Free Butt-Washing, American Style]]> Riddle me this - you can come up with a toilet seet that powerwashes your ass, plays mp3s, sprays airfreshener, gives you the local weather, lets you order a pizza from papajohns.com, and play with your virtual pet but none of these things use a soap and rinse cycle?

Here's the deal - powerwashing probably works better than toilet paper, but can we just go the whole nine and add soap? I've jumped in the shower before due to running out of paper and let's just say things weren't rosy fresh until I gave a good scrubbing WITH SOAP.

evilkingteapot

]]> <![CDATA[Kohler C3 Series Toilet Seats Offer Hands-Free Butt-Washing, American Style]]> Do you really want to have controls you touch with your hand that close to where toliet splash and where little boys who dont lift the seat can pee?

Everytime I see a women store toliet papper on the floor near a toliet I laugh my butt off for thier idiocy.

Have you ever sprayed a muddy car with a hose, the mud splashes everywhere! imagine this in your toilet. Might clean your ass, but your cheeks will be all poopy. Thank god i dont have to clean that toilet, thats why i got married!

So the next guy to use this is shot with water coming from this dirty wand. I'm not too much of a germ freak, but anything other than "what goes in the bowl stays in the bowl" is creepy.
