Do not wipe toilet seat with toilet paper: Japanese maker
Social media users have complained that their seats were scratched after being wiped with toilet paper.
Do these designers not have children? Wiping pee off the seat is like an every time thing; seems silly not to just use a bit of toilet paper.
Even I have to clean up when I miss; which happens max, max, 95% of the time.
And if paper that immediately dissolves when wet scratches the seat; maybe use better materials.
You don't clean plastic lens spectacles with paper as paper will scratch the lenses, though glass lenses can be wiped with paper. Wood is harder than plastic.
Toilet paper is wood, while the seats are plastic. Wood is a 2.5-ish on the mohs scale, and plastics tend to be too. So they scratch at a 2.5
with deeper grooves at a level 3, even on a micro scale. The alternative is to use ceramics for the seat, but the fragility means one rough drop of the seat and it could shatter. Metals are generally no better.

Their children are furry and meow. But in all seriousness, I would consider it an engineering oversight for not considering how their product is being used in real households.

You miss a max of 95% of the time? 🙃 On a related note, most people are bad with percentages.
Pee sit down, like when you shit, give it a try, not reason to not do it and saves a loooooooooot of burden, including time.
Joke's on you, the geometry of my toilet means that sit-and-pissers splash into the bottom of the seat so I have to clean the rim way more often than I used to!
People equipped with a penis standing to pee should really have the toilet seat raised out of the way
WoW! Judging the current net negative downvotes I assume that the voters were not ready for my proposal, but I swear that I enjoy several orders of magnitude less mess and higiene in my toilet seat since I did it without any drawback… good luck!
the only thing I've ever had to wipe off the seat is condensation. I've no doubt children find a way to get pee on it but anyone with two braincells to rub together knows the seat moves out of the way
I work in an extremely high level professional environment for a multi trillion dollar company.
I gotta wipe piss off the seat every damn time I go into the bathrooms here.
It doesn't matter how smart or dumb people are, piss will end up in, on, and around the places where people piss.
You should instead use Toto brand toilet wipes. 39.99 for a value pack of 15!
(un)expected factorial? 1,30767e12 wipes seems like a lot. I guess you never specified currency, but at an average cost of 3,0581e-11 per wipe, I’ll assume that that’s a pretty decent deal.
Everything gets cheaper when you buy in bulk.
Now you run into the problems of minimum order quanitities that make it impractical for an end user to acquire the product. The costs of transporting, warehousing, and eventually disposing the vast majority of 1,30767e12 wipes will far exceed the initial purchase price.
Every public bathroom I've used has pee all over the toilet seat. I don't understand why guys don't either use the urinal or sit on the toilet, why piss on the seat?
It isn't necessarily intentional.
A lot of dudes have no idea how to actually aim their junk. Other times, you might get an unexpected spray. They might be in a hurry and just not aim beyond facing the toilet. And you've got splashes from usually forceful urination. There's probably people that do it intentionally.
The real question is why the fuck they don't clean up after themselves.
It’s not always pee. One of the public restrooms I’ve had the displeasure of using repeatedly (it’s on campus in a building I frequent) has toilets and urinals with extremely high pressure flush action. Every time you flush the pressure is so violent that they spray water all over the place, including on the seat and all over the floor. They’ve been like that for years and never fixed.
What’s especially rich is that there’s sign above the urinals which says “your aim is appreciated” which makes me laugh every time. I’m so careful using the urinal not to spill even a single drop on the floor, then I flush the damn thing and it makes a huge mess!
Probably because the last guy pissed all over the seat, and they didn't want to sit in piss
Probably also kids. The urinals tend to be to tall for them to use and they don't have great aim.
Or at the very least lift the seat.
Guessing they also don't close the lid so they get to spray themselves with whatever's in the bowl when they flush. And then don't wash their hands before leaving.
I've seen evidence of people doing long range pee with the seat down in the UK when I went to visit.
Or just, you know, sit to pee like a civilized person.
Urine is sterile.Andby washing the seat with piss, you’re performing anantibacterialfavor for the next guy.Urine is sterile.
Because men are disgusting horrible creatures who should be shot into the sun without trial. In the men's room, that is.
At home they're probably fine. Maybe. It depends.
Wait, what are they using to wipe their asses that can damage a toilet seat?
Pre laminated or compressed OSB apparently.
Probably 200, 201 - whatever it takes. *snif*
Paper from the lowest bidder.
The Washlet, Toto's flagship bidet toilet, includes features like an automatic lid, an air dryer and pressure controls for the bidet's water stream.
For some reason I read "Hair dryer" and started picturing people putting their head in the toilet to dry their hairs
My bald uncle once said he had to go dry his hair.
He had just recently gotten a bidet.
I read airfryer, I was proper confused
I genuinely read airfryer, I was proper confused
Toto management: By replacing customer service with AI, we'll save millions!
Also Toto management: How could this PR disaster have happened??
I personally love the sensation of sitting in cooled yellow liquid when I crap. Its the only reason I eat at McDonald's.
Doesn’t anybody else lick their seats?
Taste buds might cause scratches. They are raised bumps, after all.
If toilet paper can cause scratches on that hard material, it must also be causing damage to the skin. Does it really need to be that tough a material to do its job?
That sounds like some shitty material science, or corner cutting. Probably both.
Man these people always do the weirdest shit.
