"Washlet" (Japanese Toilet)

Woshurett

I say an important thing about Japan. It is a toilet in Japan. The toilet in Japan feature very. Because the toilet washes the person with electricity and water. Do you understand? This toilet is called Washlet. The foreigner who visits Japan is surprised at the rest room in the Japan. This Washelet is widespread to the rest room from a public rest room to the home. The company that said TOTO started selling in 1980 as for Washlet. At first, the television commercial of TOTO was criticized as for sales. People said that the item for sale of TOTO was dirty. However, TOTO overcame the criticism and established the position in Japan. Latest Washlet has functions of washing, dryness, the massage, the deodorization, the automatic operation, and imitation sound, etc. Moreover, a famous manufacturer of Washlet in Japan is INAX, Panasonic, and Toshiba, etc. besides TOTO. The price class of Washlet is 20000 ~ 300000 yen. I introduce it including the rest room circumstances of Japan. I cannot live if there is no Washlet! hahaha *Some photographs on this page are photographs of the manufacturer. TOTO Official Site (English and other)

Rest Room in Japanese Style Do you know? The toilet in Japan is not in the bathroom. The toilet is away with the bathroom. This is a big difference of the lifestyle of Europe or America and Japan. Moreover, the toilet warms a room with heat of toilet. The rest room is warm in winter. Rest Room in Japanese Style In the rest room in Japan, there is a wash-basin to wash one's hand. Moreover, there is a bar of length next to the toilet. This bar is handrail for elderly person and physically handicapped person. Rest Room in Japanese Style My work is a design of the house. This photograph is a rest room in the house that I designed. The size of an average rest room in Japan is 1m x 2m. Rest Room in Japanese Style The right side is a men's toilet. The house with a men's toilet is few. However, the husband in this house hoped for it. Operation Panel A modern toilet uses electricity. The person pours water with this operation panel, washes, dries, etc. Oto Hime When the person uses the toilet, this produces a fresh sound. Moreover, this is the same as the operation panel. This is popular in Japan. First Floor Plan This is a drawing that I designed. The size of this house is an average of Japan. Do you understand where is the rest room in this house? Second Floor Plan The bathroom is on the second floor. However, the bathroom doesn't have the toilet. This is a standard of the lifestyle of Japan. The Japanese dislikes toilet in the bathroom. Because the Japanese is a people who values bathing. Bath Room The Japanese likes bathing very much. People spend a long time in the bathroom every day. There is a person who takes a bath for two hours though average bathing time is 30 minutes in Japan. Therefore, there is no toilet in the bathroom in Japan for a long time. This is from samurai's age. Bath Room There is a garden only for such a bathroom. This house is my design. The seeing of the garden is one of the enjoyments of the person who takes a bath. I think that Japanese rest room is interesting for foreigner. Unfortunately, the room at most hotels in Japan is rest rooms of the Europe and America style, excluding the tradition hotel in Japan. However, a public rest room is different from the foreign country. Please experience many when you come to Japan. If it is possible, you will enter the home in Japan. It will become an amazing experience for you.
