The Washlet S400 and Shanghai
Written by Jimmy
Business travel has its positives and its tribulations. Today was a positive as I sit in the lounge in Shanghai airport waiting for my flight to London. The lounge hides THE world’s greatest invention – the Toto Washlet S400, one of the automatic toilets with jet spray. I won’t go into detail other than to say: 1) more spray options than the world’s biggest car wash, 2) better accuracy that the Department of Defense’s best Drone, 3) while my flight was almost 2 hours delayed, I almost missed it and read Mike Lewis’s the Big Short cover to cover. I will be placing my order today. Retirement is moved back another year or two as I imagine a house full of S400’s will set us all back a bit…
Here’s the basic look. Not much I agree. It automatically opens, seat as warmer, it automatically flushes and talks you through things quite soothingly.
But the magic is in the little control panel on the right. Four hours later and I was still experimenting… Here’s how it describes its features:
- Automatic open/close lid activated by sensors, or the simple touch of a button on the remote control
- Auto flush activated by sensors or the simple touch of a button
- Gentle Aerated, Warm Water, Dual Action Spray with cycling movement and massage feature
- Adjustable water temperature and volume
- Warm air drying with three variable temperature settings
- Automatic air purifier
- Convenient wireless Remote Control with large LCD panel
- SoftClose® anti-bacterial seat
- Heated Seat with Temperature Control
- Docking Station Easy to Install and Clean
