Product preview: This seat does the dirty work

Kohler’s C3 series toilet seats turn using the “loo” into an interactive adventure. Along with a heated seat, you get a helping hand in the form of two separate water nozzles that squirt warm water (from the regular supply line) at your back or front end—you tell it which—before blowing warm air for drying. You can even adjust the water temperature; decide whether you want the spray to be gentle, oscillating, or pulsating; and aim the spray where it will do the most good. The C3 also features a deodorizer and a glowing blue nightlight. As you might expect, all this extra help doesn’t come cheap: The C3-100, with its seat-mounted touchpad, costs $750, while the remote-control C3-200 (insert your own squirt-the-dog or soak-your-spouse joke here) runs $1,300. Both require a ground-fault circuit interrupter outlet and come in white or biscuit.  They’re available at plumbing showrooms or by special order at home centers.

This sound really great, but would really be worth the extra expense. Plus, wouldn't all the germs end up on the remote anyways. I don't know, but it sounds like it would be really cool to have if money was not a problem.
