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?
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.
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.

Ah that’s what they use to keep it dry, just do a victory dance while sitting on it

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.
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!
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!
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 also kids. The urinals tend to be to tall for them to use and they don’t have great aim.
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.
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 genuinely read airfryer, I was proper confused
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*
Toto management: By replacing customer service with AI, we’ll save millions!
Also Toto management: How could this PR disaster have happened??
That sounds like some shitty material science, or corner cutting. Probably both.
Man these people always do the weirdest shit.
