Sushi Blog — japanese toilet

A toilet is not something we give much thought to although we use it multiple times daily.  Japan pushed the doing your business and paperwork and done type of routine to the next level.  Just watch how Martina replaces a roll of toilet paper.  The video host explains the functionality of all of the controls the toilet has, which may confuse a first time user as these functions are not available in western toilets.

When it comes to toilets, the Japanese have taken the bathroom experience to the next level.  One thing that every visitor to Japan from overseas has to talk about is how many buttons they can push on the toilet.  Matt takes us on a tour at Toto where it all started.  The standard high-tech model comes with buttons for washlet, bidet, dryer, massage, and control for spray pressure, sitting position and more.
