In the previous two articles, we made a corresponding introduction to the products and brands participating in Hengping this time. "
1 Performance test [full score 35 points]
In our daily lives, the most commonly used functions of smart toilet seats are seat heating, cleaning, and drying. What consumers are most concerned about are power consumption, comfort, etc. . In this Hengping review, we started from these most concerned points and conducted actual measurements on the seat temperature, cleaning, drying, power consumption and other aspects of the smart toilet seat.
Cleaning Test [2.5 points]
The most important function of the smart toilet seat is the cleaning effect, so how well these products perform requires actual testing.
Next, we start the cleaning test, use a balloon to simulate a butt, tie a knot inside the balloon (so that it looks more like the wrinkles of a chrysanthemum from the outside), and finally use soybean paste to simulate a daddy, apply it and rinse it. The cleaner it is after rinsing within 5 seconds. It proves that the smart toilet seat is more effective.
passed the balloon cleaning test. It can be seen that except for Kohler , the soybean paste on the twelve balloons can be completely washed away. However, this test does not rule out the interference of subjective factors. Since the position of the balloon cannot be fixed, there is no guarantee that the water column will hit the center every time, nor can it be guaranteed that the distance between the water outlet and the balloon is the same. Therefore, there will be a certain error in the test results. .
Water temperature stability test [5 points]
The stability of water temperature affects the user's cleaning experience. In order to compare the water temperature gap between twelve products, we use a temperature recorder to test the mid-range water temperature. Judging from the test results, the difference in water temperature between the mid-range models is not very big, or the water temperature of the Wrigley model is too low. Since the water flow cannot completely wrap the probe, the author believes that the test temperature is lower than the real temperature of the water flow, and the actual temperature in use is higher than the body temperature.
Due to different heating methods, the water temperature changes also differently. The instantaneous type continuously produces hot water, while the thermal storage type will cause the water temperature to fluctuate from cold to hot. On the other hand, due to the limited water tank capacity of the thermal storage smart toilet seat, for example, the Panasonic 1330 became cold after about 1 minute of testing, and it takes about 3-5 minutes to reheat, which greatly reduces the user experience, so the heating method is still the best choice. The smart toilet seat is a very critical point. In this test, the instant-heating products have good water temperature stability and are awarded 5 points; the thermal storage products are limited by the water tank and cannot continuously produce hot water, so they are awarded 2.5 points.
Seat temperature test [5 points]
In order to prevent users from tightening their anus and being unable to pull out the pancake when they sit down on the toilet in the winter, these twelve smart toilet seats are all designed with seat heating functions.
Low temperature gear:
Medium temperature gear:
High temperature gear:
For this function, we use an infrared thermal imaging camera to record the temperature of the seat ring for a week. We first test the low-grade seat ring temperature, then change to the medium-temperature grade and heat for 20 minutes before measuring the medium-temperature grade. temperature, and then measure the temperature at the high temperature range after heating for another 20 minutes to obtain the temperature balance of the seat ring.
Judging from the photos taken by the infrared thermal imaging camera, TOTO TCF6631CS and Haier V6 have the best balance, and the most unbalanced is Wrigley AK1011. In addition, the high-temperature areas of Smartmi ZNMTG01ZM and Jomoo Z1D20B1S are concentrated in the upper left corner, while Panasonic 1330 is the worst.
Drying test [5 points]
Choosing the right smart toilet seat can allow our butts to enjoy the gentle care of warm air. In this section, we will consider three products that do not have this function: Panasonic 5210, Zhimi ZNMTG01ZM, and Toshiba AA1 Pass, only test Haier V6 and Haier V168 Plus, American Standard CEAS7601, BWA437G, Wrigley AK1011, Panasonic 1330, TOTO TCF6631CS, Kohler C3-149, Jomoo Z1D20B1S.
Wet wipes weighing test process: Weigh the weight of a wet wipe, dry it with warm air at a medium temperature for 1 minute, then weigh the wet wipe, calculate the reduced moisture, and use this to see who has a better drying effect. .
From the test results, it can be seen that American Standard has the best drying effect, followed by Haier, TOTO, and Jiumu, and the worst is Panasonic and Wrigley.
Air temperature test [2.5 points]
Since the air temperature affects the drying effect, we tested the high and low air temperatures of the air outlet respectively.
Low-end air temperature
High-end air temperature
As can be seen from the above figure, the American standard CEAS7601 with the highest air temperature reaches 58.1℃, and the Haier V168 Plus with the highest low-end air temperature reaches 49.2℃. Since it is not accurate enough to use the highest temperature or the lowest temperature as the standard, here we take the average wind temperature of the high and low grades, and then compare the average wind temperature with the wind temperatures of the 9 models, and finally get the above results.
Wind speed test [2.5 points]
As we all know, the speed of warm air drying is also related to the wind speed. The wind speed of 9 toilet seat models cannot be adjusted. We used an anemometer to test the wind speed of warm air drying for 9 toilet seat models.
Generally speaking, the greater the wind speed, the faster the drying speed. The results show that Haier V6 has the highest wind speed, followed by Panasonic 1330, and American standard CEAS7601 has the smallest wind speed.
Bacteria test [2.5 points]
Everyone believes that thermal storage products are easy to breed bacteria and water saving, especially the bacteria that breed after long-term use, can easily cause harm to women and sensitive people. Therefore, in this Hengping review, we specially selected three representative products: instant heating, rapid heating, and heat storage to be tested by professional testing institutions. However, since the tap water itself has undergone purification steps such as disinfection and filtration, two months is never enough to show a significant difference. According to feedback from users, thermal storage products generally begin to develop scaling and high bacterial content after one or two years of use. Therefore, we will not be able to obtain accurate test results in the short term. This bacteria test is temporarily scored according to the heating method, with full points for instant heating products, 1 point for instant heating products, and 0 points for thermal storage types.
Power consumption test [5 points]
In order to observe the power consumption level of twelve products, we adjusted the machine gear to the maximum and used a power consumption meter to test the water potential, water temperature, air temperature drying, and no-operation standby for each model for 1 minute. The power consumption of the product.
According to the test results, the power consumption of Panasonic 5210, Haier V6, Zhimi ZNMTG01ZM, American Standard CEAS7601, BWA437G, Wrigley AK1011, Haier V168 Plus and other instant heating products is about 0.01 degrees, while Panasonic 1330, TOTO The power consumption of fast heating and thermal storage products such as TCF6631CS, Kohler C3-149, Jomoo Z1D20B1S, and Toshiba AA1 is about 0.03 degrees.
Since the thermal storage smart toilet seat will be heated repeatedly to maintain the temperature of the cleaning water in the water tank and ensure that users have hot water when using it, heating will consume more power from time to time, while the instantaneous type will heat it immediately. , the energy consumption will be smaller, which is one of the reasons why the instantaneous toilet seat saves electricity during this test. In this test, the instant heating type was given 5 points, while the thermal storage type was given 2.5 points.
Safety test [5 points]
In terms of safety, we conduct a simple comparison of twelve smart toilet seats. On the one hand, in terms of waterproof performance, the waterproof level of the twelve smart toilet seats all reaches the national standard IPX4, which can prevent various Water splashing from the direction may intrude and cause damage, but here is an additional reminder that you still need to pay attention to waterproofing in daily use and do not spray water directly.
In addition, in terms of leakage protection, since the wet and dry parts of Chinese-style bathrooms are not separated, there is a certain risk in the test. However, except for TOTO, Kohler, and JOMOO, the rest of the twelve products are equipped with leakage protection devices, such as smart meters and toilets. Jiebao installs a 10A leakage protector, and Haier uses patented anti-electricity wall technology. In an emergency, the leakage protection plug will immediately cut off the power supply to ensure family safety.
Performance test score
2 User experience [full score 20 points]
Regardless of the performance parameters of the product, it is just data after all. Whether it is comfortable and convenient to use, consumers cannot tell from the data. Therefore, we selected a total of 12 editors for this evaluation, including men, women, old and young, to achieve coverage of different genders and ages. Based on their feedback after actual experience, we obtained the final user experience score. If the product is convenient to use and the experience is comfortable, the score will be higher, and vice versa.
