TotoToto's Neorest 750H.
Earlier this month, The New York Times published a story headlined "The Cult of the Toto Toilet," which highlighted how obsessed people were with the high-end toilets from the Japanese toilet manufacturer.
A New York City businessman featured in the story held off going to the bathroom before he left on a flight from Milan because he wanted to do his business in his Toto.
Now, we understand why. The Toto is indeed a throne fit for a king and queen.
The company's top of the line toilet, which retails for $9,800, has a heated seat, a personal cleansing and drying system, and an air purifying system, among other features.
It also cleans itself, automatically flushes, and has a lid that opens and closes by itself.
The toilet bowl is coated with zirconium, which helps repel waste.
There's a UV light built into the lid.
When the toilet isn't being used, the UV light shines into the bowl to break down germ and waste particles.
Here's how the UV light works:
It also has an automatic night light.
No more stumbling around in the middle of the night looking for a light switch.
Here's the personal cleansing wand.
The self-cleaning retractable wand sprays warm, aerated water for both front and rear cleansing.
The NYT's Steven Kurutz wrote that with systems like these, "the need for toilet paper is virtually eliminated."
It also has a wireless remote.
Use the remote to control the cleansing wand. You can adjust the temperature and pressure of the water and control the drying process.
It has a special flushing system that uses two jets of water at the same time.
One jet of water goes to the bottom of the bowl, and the other goes around the rim.
Toto calls this "tornado dual flush technology."
It uses one gallon of water per flush for a full flush, and 0.8 gallons of water for a light flush.
It's only 17-inches high.
The toilet, which is ADA compliant, is only 17" from the base to the top of the toilet seat, which Toto says "is the ergonomically correct height for a person to comfortably sit down and rise from the unit with ease."
