Bidets? No thanks. Heated seats? Don't need 'em. I think the smartest element on Japanese toilets is that some of them have a little faucet and sink on the lid of the tank; the water that fills the tank actually goes through that faucet first, then drains through the tank lid into the tank, so you can just wash your hands in that water rather than turning on the separate sink. An easy way to save water!
Granted, that water is damn cold in the winter…
- mikeryan 11y agoSo I'm in the process of remodeling a bathroom and spent a bit of time at a toilet/tub place recently. Went into it feeling the same way you did, however while I was there, recently after lunch, patiently following my wife around I did have the chance to use their restroom with one of these fancy toilets installed. From that visit I have come to the conclusion that we currently live like savages compared to the Japanese.

- Albright 11y agoA fear of the unknown, I guess. Even in all the time I spent in Japan, I never tried one. I just… don't want that sensation.
