Guest guest Posted December 22, 2002 Report Share Posted December 22, 2002 Dan, In new RV's I have notice that they are putting little " shower " type hoses next to the toilet. THIS intrigues me. THEN I was watching the travel channel and they were discussing the worlds most opulent toilets and there was one with a toilet seat to die for! Made JUST for RNYers! It vented out......plus had little spray/cleaning things built into the toilet. I would LOVE to find this toilet. We have replaced ours with toilets that sit higher then the normal household toilet (they are ADA compliant)because of my knees, but I would replace the one in our bathroom with that fancy one in a heart beat if I could find it!

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2002 Report Share Posted December 23, 2002 That's probaly an American Standard toilet. I'll check my source catalogue on-line to find the proper manufacturer and send that link. The shower hose? Maybe the toilet doubles as a foot washer! Most likely it deals with the small amount of water or sanitation wash used to evacuate the bowl. If you put your foot in the bowl and it comes out BLUE...you've got the sanitation wash instead of water; the hose is there to finish the process. I'll let you know what I find.

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2002 Report Share Posted December 23, 2002 Don't know about the vented toilet seats but while living in Japan we had a toilet seat that had a warmer (so you didn't have to sit on a cold seat), a behind washer, and a fan to dry the just washed behind. Haven't seen them in the U.S. yet and this was 9 years ago so I imagine that they have also vented them by now. By the way, I'm a very proximal and I carry a purse-size order killer with me at all times and freely use candles and room spray at home!

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2002 Report Share Posted December 23, 2002 Debbie~ In Japan, they had the toilet seat to die for! I want one so bad I can't stand it...but right now, 600 bucks is not in the budget! It's called a " washlet toiletseat " and does all kinds of things. The feature that I most like is that it sends a stream of warm water to exactly the right spot...and you are as clean as a whistle when you are finished. Only need a couple of squares of TP...I think I could save a lot in that dept. right there. Has a funny feature on it too....it makes a flushing sound but doesn't flush...for people so modest as to fear sounds that may come from them during the evacuation process...LOL!! Saves water, I guess...haha!! It either washes your bottom, or gives you a fuller " shower " ...I didn't try that feature...was afraid I wouldn't know how to turn it off....and didn't know exactly what it would do...was a bit afraid of it...so just went for the bottom washing feature..and that was worth the money by itself! I've been told they sell them here in the states somewhere...but I don't know where yet. I'll let you know if I ever find one.

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2002 Report Share Posted December 23, 2002 Okay...I found the website..and am shocked to find they want 12-1300 bucks for this...and it offers a massage feature?? What's that about....sounds like a sexual experience to me...all wrapped up in a toilet seat. Well...ahem...we'll pass on that...but I will continue to look. http://www.totousa.com/toto/productpage.asp?PID=488http://www.totousa.co\ m/toto/productpage.asp?PID=488 http://easycarts.net/ecarts/terrylove/Bidet_Seats.htmlhttp://easycarts.net/ecarts/terrylove/Bidet_Seats.html Okay..the second one looks better price wise...and they seem to have more to offer on first look.

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2002 Report Share Posted December 23, 2002 Alice, LOL I will never forget the first time I saw an electric toilet seat in Japan. Was in a very nice Japanese Lady's home (her husband was a Doctor or something) and I had to use the facilities. I nearly died when I saw this little plug sticking out from the toilet seat. Well, curiosity got the better of me and I asked her WHY there was an electrical PLUG coming from the toilet seat. (I am envisioning electrocution while peeing) She very seriously tells me that Japanese bathrooms were NOT heated during the winter and that she didn't LIKE to sit on a cold seat and that this was a seat warmer! I thought I had seen it ALL at that point. LOL Debbie in Gig Harbor ladybostons@... www.paws2print.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2002 Report Share Posted December 26, 2002 I lived in Japan for three years..Kyoto. In fact, I lived in Asia for 12 years, hence my last name, Ang. Japan has the best toilets. Mine talked to me. Too bad it was in Japanese and I didn't understand a word it was saying! Vicki A. > > That's probaly an American Standard toilet.

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2002 Report Share Posted December 26, 2002 You know, you guys, we always think we are so advanced. But a lot of the world washes themselves and thinks Americans are really dirty and course because we use paper to wipe. They think it's not clean. Hmmm..and I thought we were the be all, end all!

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2002 Report Share Posted December 26, 2002 Another TOILET memory. GOSH where do they come from...... A Japanese girl friend, her husband, and her Parents buy a NEW home. I had been to visit her mother in the old family home and it was a VERY traditional Japanese home with tetami and the toilet that was just a porcelain line hole in the floor of the bathroom. This embarassed her mother very much when I had to use it. It sure didn't bother me! So, I go to see this new home. THE very first think Reiko shows me is the toilet.....with the MODERN porcelain GOD! She was SOOOO proud! As I am looking at it....I notice that in SEVERAL languages it has operating instruction listed near the flush handle. I nearly LOST it. You know....we take it for granted that EVERYONE knows how to operate a toilet, but I guess that this is NOT true. At the time I thought it was pretty funny. The instructions were in Japanese, English and German. Debbie in Gig Harbor ladybostons@... www.paws2print.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
