I went shopping yesterday and saw a store selling smart toilets, so I went in. The salesperson was so noisy and kept introducing it, which made my eardrums hurt. The key points introduced are not important, and there is an obvious IQ tax.
Fortunately, I have known about smart toilets for a long time, otherwise I would have been fooled by her!
Smart toilet selection is not that complicated, and the toilet itself will not have too many problems. All the key points of purchasing are focused on functions - three functions are recommended to avoid, and three functions are recommended to choose. Buy this way, you can take into account both easy-to-use and cheap.
[1 not selected] Water tank model
All smart toilets have no water tank from the appearance. Most toilets really don’t have a water tank: use the water pressure in the tap water pipe to flush the water more vigorously and flush it cleaner.
But a few toilets will design a water storage tank under the seat, which is completely extravagant. If you have a water tank, you must have water parts. The water parts have a short life and will break down every few minutes. The water tank of the smart toilet is hidden deep in it and cannot be opened by itself, so it has to be called after-sales service.
Some people buy water tank models because they want to "use after shutting down the water." But if the water is really out of water, it is just a toilet that is filled once more than the tankless model, and it doesn’t make much sense. On the contrary, when purchasing, you need to spend a few hundred yuan more (if you have these few hundred yuan, can you buy a bucket of water to flush the toilet?).
[2 not selected] Foam Shield
"Fubble Shield", I feel it is amazing when I hear this name. Its function is to spray foam: sit on the toilet, and the toilet starts to spray foam towards the inner wall. In this way, the stool will not stick to the toilet and will not splash.
But after actually buying it home, few people use this function:
On the one hand, because the cost is too high, spraying foam requires injection of special foam liquid. If you use it every time you go to the toilet, you will have to add it in half a month. The second is that it is too small for a good toilet to be used, and it will splash if it is used in a bad toilet.
Instead of using the foam shield function, it is better to choose a better toilet. The inner wall of the good toilet is smooth enough, the water seal is in a reasonable position, and it will not splash or stick to the toilet.
[3 not selected] Deodorizing
deodorizing and fragrance enhancement, these two functions are integrated. Its principle is: install an exhaust fan inside the toilet, and the exhaust fan works when using the toilet. Suck the air inside into the toilet, filter it and then blow it outside the toilet.
says it is deodorizing, but it is actually filtering the air. But the odor doesn't just exist in the toilet. If your butt doesn't block the entire seat ring, it will float out of it. Every time you use the deodorizing function, it will make the room smell good and smelly - it smells like cheap and inferior air freshener.
deodorization function will also produce consumables. Every once in a while, new spices and filter elements need to be replaced. Not only the effect is bad, but the cost is not low.
[1 Select] Remote Control
Select the remote control model, not the panel model. The panel model is a panel installed next to the toilet. Every time I use it, I need to turn my head and look at the small words on it. Young people still feel uncomfortable, and the elderly people can't even see clearly.
remote control model is equipped with a remote control. With a magnetic base that can be hung on the wall. When using it, you can hold the remote control in your hand and study it slowly, and it can be operated by the elderly and children.
remote control smart toilet, not only one remote control. There will also be a knob on the rear right side of the race. Turn the knob to activate preset functions—such as turning forward and spraying water, and turning backward to drying. The panel model can only be operated through the panel.
Tip: It is not recommended to buy remote control models in public places, so that no one will take the remote control away.
[2 Select] Extra water outlet
Please see what is the difference in the water outlets in the two photos below ▽
The one on the left is the most common single water outlet; the one on the right is the relatively novel extra water outlet. Now buy a smart toilet, and it is recommended to choose the one on the right.
more water outlet, the water sprayed out is like a shower. Each water column is more delicate and has a wider coverage.The single water outlet is more like a sharp sword spurting out, pointing directly at the chrysanthemum. Poor design can be very painful. The material of the
nozzle does not need to rely too much on the word "metal". Plastic material is as durable and even less likely to accumulate scale.
[3 Select] Front Water Softener
Some smart toilets will come with a front water softener , which is the following ▽
front water softener, which can soften water. In other words, it can reduce the scale in the water. A smart toilet requires heating of water, which will produce scale. Scale blocks the pipe and causes all kinds of problems.
The failure of smart toilet is probably caused by scale. With this small front water softener, some scale problems can be solved.
front water softener is disposable. When the salt inside is used up, the water softening effect will be lost and it cannot be opened and added. So every three or five years, one needs to be replaced.
