Having conquered its home market, the Japanese toilet-maker Toto is selling more bidets in the United States. Toto’s president says not even tariffs will halt its advance.

A clean ass is inevitable :3

    Japanese toilets best toilets. The heated seats are even better than the bidets, though.

        Not all of them. I recently bought a Toto toilet, but I didn’t want to have to deal with the expense and inconvenience of adding electricity to the toilet, so I got a “dumb” one.

    I’m not convinced. I’m a working class American and I don’t need a fancy Japanese toilet. I’ll stick with my tap temperature and pressure bidet. Nothing wakes me up in the morning quite like that chill

    Having lived in Japan for a decade, I feel dirty whenever I don’t use a washlet. Plenty of places in Japan still don’t have them, though. A lot of places still have squat toilets, even, especially the more rural you get. Where I last lived in Tokyo, the park by my house had squat toilets (and a urinal that was basically just kinda out there which was a little surprising but not uncommon at smaller Japanese parks).

    That reminds me; I need to buy a portable washlet since I’ll be traveling.
