Since we first entered the world of tech toilets and bidets in 2016, many additional bidet seats have hit the market since then. And now, Japanese-style bathroom hygiene is becoming more accessible and acceptable in the United States. Here’s a roundup of the latest options for turning your regular toilet into a robot that flushes, warms, dries, and cleans itself.
Note: Our list consists of both electric and non-electric models, depending on the location of the toilet outlet. The main difference between the two options is the heating: non-electric seats are washed with cold water directly from the pipes, while electric ones have the possibility of using warm water and seat heating.
