Toto Washlet Video Demonstration

[yasudaplumbing]

OK fellow Forum Members,

After posting my pics of a renovation here in Hawaii, a few questions were raised regarding the Toto Toilet seat.

So here is a video I shot at my house. The last 50 seconds of the video got cut off due to the 5 minute limitations of the host website.

Click on the picture, turn up the volume, and full size the screen.

Have Fun!

Tracy

Too much machinery. I'll stick with the bidet. :)

[PLUMBER RICK]

tracy when you get fed up with that kohler wellworth toilet.

i'll donate a toto drake to you. you'll have to figure out how to get it there;)

thanks for the mr. seat up and mrs. seat down reference. reminds me of our wedding reception.

ps. a little warm water or wd40 will clean off that label.

the ridgid card will qualify you for the video contest;)

i'm jealous:crying:

Very cool Tracy... I like how you incorporated Rick's love for kohler into th video :D I feel famous now that someone in HI knows my name :p

You did a great job of demoing the washlet. I wondered how you were going to demo the operation (good old college trick)

A few questions:

1) So when the wash and dry is done are you completely dry?

2) How does the dryer work? does it just dry the whole inside of the bowl?

3) Did you jump the first time you tried it?

4) Are you now converted? Never going back to paper at home again?

Once again, great job on the vid!

Josh

PS... Have you read the video contest for TeamRIDGID. You should give it a shot, looks like you have the video thing figured out pretty good. Might win you a trip to beautiful OH to meet us all :D

Hey Josh This is what I've found- The air dry takes way to long, a little T.P. just to dry yourself with is all you need. Everybody yips the first time especially with cooler water. I would not imagine going back to toilet paper ever again. I still think the less expensive models work the best. But the toto is Tops of the Expensive units. S200 is better then the S300. I feel foolish for not trying one until I was 40 years old. The thought of all the family members I could have helped as they became old and infirmed. Oh ya I'm to bidets what plumberRick is to the k60 X10

You did a great job of demoing the washlet. I wondered how you were going to demo the operation (good old college trick) what kind of trick are we talking about? Or is this the wrong forum for that? :eek:LOL

A few questions:

1) So when the wash and dry is done are you completely dry?
No, not completely dry, you would have to sit there for an additional 3 minutes or so. I just get up and use toilet paper, 5 sheets of Charmin and dab.

2) How does the dryer work? does it just dry the whole inside of the bowl?
There is a little duct about 1/2"tall x 2" wide with a hinged flap door on it which is placed next to the wand.
It is pointed in the general direction, but not angled upwards.

3) Did you jump the first time you tried it?
Yes, I did jump the first time I used it which was about 14 years ago.
A Management Co. had called me to install a Washlet in a vacant condo unit in Waikiki. I picked up the keys from them and went to install it.

During the installation my stomach was acting up, so I figured hey, I'll give this baby a try. So I did my #2 and went to press the button, Yowwww!
Back then, the Washlets didn't have the "soft spray" setting, only the "solid stream" style setting. When that stream hits the exact center of uranus with high pressure, look out. It makes you wanna pee, again.

4) Are you now converted? Never going back to paper at home again?
I'm definitely converted, still need a little paper though. We cut back about 2/3 of our usage.

Once again, great job on the vid!
Thanks Josh.

Finally!!

Something in this Forum that my wife was interested in...

Thanks, Tracy

I can buy a lifetime supply of TP for what that thing costs.

Please, not another reason for her to stay in there 5 more mins.

[MrsSeatDown]

Tracy,

I can't believe of all the jokesters and pranksters here that I am the one to explain this to you, but what Josh was referring to is putting saran wrap over a toilet seat (stretched tightly). So when someone goes pee pee it splashes all over.:smack-head:

It's really not about the cost of the TP PC.

It's more about having a comfortable day after you use it.

You know how you eat something spicy the night before?
Do a #2 the next day? Then go to work and walk around with that uncomfortable slightly burning sensation?
After using the Washlet, I don't get any of that.

The stream can be adjusted really strong to the point where you are flushing out the first inch inside of uranus, thus reducing seepage through out the day. (I apologize for the graphic nature)

Washlet = Less Skid Marks

And this is only from a male point of view. Imagine the benefits for a female.
It's all about improving the quality of life.

I edited my first post and put a Warning on there.

You're pretty strange Tracy...but I like that about you

The only thing I get after eating spicy Indian food is acid reflux...can the Washlet help with that? :confused:

I'm no expert but if you are expierencing "seepage" try adding some ruffage to your diet ;)

Skid Mark free since the 9th grade :D

That's called Hemorrhoids :D

[saysflushable]

Keep up the good work Tracy. If I didn't see all the baby wipes in all the bathrooms of all the homes I go into I might not be such a big spokesperson for these units. I'm telling you guys and girls they are great. Everything tracy said is true. I'm suprised he went into such detail but he is right about everything he said, embarrasing or not! For me going with out one would be like clearing a sewer bare handed ,wiping my hands off with a paper towel and waiting until evening to wash them.
