Looking for a way to give both your bathroom and your wellness a boost? Don’t underestimate the benefits of switching to an intelligent toilet.
Intelligent toilets, and the technological innovation they offer—think cleansing sprays, foot warmers, and even Bluetooth syncing—can enhance your daily routine. And we’ve heard from our users that making their most routine tasks enjoyable can actually improve their day.
To put this theory to the test, we asked a few intelligent-toilet owners why they made the switch, how their lives have been affected by the upgrade, and which features they can’t live without. Here’s what they had to say.
IT’S FAMILY-FRIENDLY
Valerie Altahawi, cofounder of art advisory firm NAVA Contemporary and a mother of three, inherited a Veil Toilet when her family moved into a new apartment. While she quickly became enamored with the toilet’s special functions—the heated seat is a favorite—the real win came when potty-training her second daughter. Altahawi credits the Veil Toilet with making this daunting parenting task safe and easier. The hands-free, quiet-close lid meant no more tiny fingers getting caught. The illuminated bowl made the perfect night-light for midnight potty trips. “Oh,” she said with a laugh, “and apparently toddlers like heated seats, too.”
IT’S A GREAT INVESTMENT
Sometimes even if the toilet isn’t for your family, it can make a lasting impression. That was the case for real estate investor Evan Roberts. He and his team at Dependable Homebuyers in Maryland wanted to differentiate themselves from the competition. “To make a splash, we decided to…put a high-tech toilet in our latest [property],” he said. “What we really liked was that it had the same footprint as a normal toilet, so our plumber didn't have to do anything special to install it.” Roberts believes that the investment resulted in a faster sale: “The response was phenomenal. We received tons of feedback about the smart lighting sensor, which made the home stand out in people's minds.”
IT’S LIFE-CHANGING
Composer Joel D. decided to upgrade his seat after a few trips overseas. He said, “After experiencing [smart] toilets in my travels to Japan, and also the old-fashioned hose-and-spray [method] in Vietnam and Cambodia, the Western, TP-heavy approach to toilet habits started to seem wasteful by comparison.” Naturally, Joel’s favorite feature of his toilet is that it lets him customize the water pressure and spray type, because it “allows for a perfectly personalized experience,” he said. Moreover, he confided, “[Investing in a smart toilet] has been a truly life-changing experience. So much so that I prefer only touse my toilets at home—if at all possible.”
READY TO UPGRADE?
Whether your priority is a bold aesthetic or sophisticated innovation, an intelligent toilet or Cleansing Seat with bidet functionality, like the C3-455 could help enrich your bathroom experience. And when you can elevate even the most essential moments in your routine, it’s just one way to bring a little bit more joy to your everyday.
