Smart Toilet Seats Gain Popularity for Hygiene and Comfort
A smart toilet seat cleans with water instead of relying only on toilet paper.
It can be added to many existing toilets.
When someone turns on the wash, a small nozzle sprays adjustable water and then retracts.
The nozzle cleans itself after use.
Some seats need electricity and can warm the seat or dry with warm air.
Simpler models do not need electricity and use a knob to control the wash.
The article says these seats can make bathroom routines more comfortable and may help children and older adults use the toilet more independently.
People should check whether a seat fits their toilet before buying it.
Smart toilet seats add water-based cleansing to an existing toilet, either as electronic or non-electronic models.
They use an adjustable water stream from a retractable nozzle; the nozzle cleans itself after use.
Electronic models may add features such as heated seats, warm-air drying, remote controls and personalized settings.
Non-electronic seats do not require an electrical connection and use simpler controls for washing.
