奇妙的日本卫浴产品 简介 日本人把自己的技术秘诀都用在了不起眼的洗手间里。 日本的洗手间有两种风格：一是传统日本风格的浴室；还有些日本人使用着西方风格的厕所，用一些按钮、灯光和高科技的元素装点洗手间。大多数高档宾馆和饭店都会给客人提供选择，大家当然要看一眼西方风格的温水洗净便座。 这不仅仅是只简单配备了加热座位的坐便器，有些最好的马桶还有MP3播放器，闪烁的灯光和各种各样的喷水装置和加热器。 这种坐便器首先能吸引你的就是它能自动启动，因为它的表面装有红外感应器。然后它会触发自动程序，开始自己加热，有时甚至会欢迎你来到浴室。 马桶右边的墙上通常有一个遥控面板，上面装饰着复杂的日本文字。如果你不认识日语，那么这个面板就是你如厕体验中最有意思的部分——每按一个按钮，就能看到一个洗手间的新功能。但有句话要提醒你：不要同时按下所有的按钮，否则通常情况下洗手间会喷出许多水，而且无法关闭。 有了日本人的奇思妙想，近年来卫浴科技水平达到了前所未有的高度。比如，按下某个按钮就会出现冲水的声音，从而掩盖浴室里的其它杂音；还有可以播放SD卡存储的MP3文件的播放器，让你如厕时也能听喜欢的音乐。一旦方便结束，马桶通常会自己冲水，放低座位，自我清洁。如果你决定使用集成的坐浴盆或急流喷水技术，许多马桶甚至还设计了烘干器。 Toto是一家来自日本的主流卫浴产品公司，近几年在美国推出了几款类似的产品，纽约许多新潮的公寓居民都来赶这股潮流，英国的灵通人士享受温水洗净便座也只是时间问题。 The weird and wonderful world of the Japanese Washlet Lavatories in Japan come in two forms: a traditional Japanese bathroom; and a uniquely Japanese take on a Western-style loo, adorned with buttons, lights and hi-tech features. Most upmarket hotels and restaurant will offer their guests a choice, and its certainly taking a peek at the Western-style Washlet. Its so much more than simply a lavatory with a heated seat; some of the very best Washlets have MP3 players, flashing lights and all manners of jets and heaters. The first thing that strikes you on a visit to a Washlet is that the seat usually raises itself, thanks to an infrared sensor mounted on the bowl. It will then spring into life, heating itself and in some cases even welcoming you to the bathroom. To the right of the Washlet there is usually a remote control mounted on the wall which is decorated in complex Japanese characters. If you can`t read Japanese this can often be the most entertaining part of the lavatory experience, with each button press leading to some new, unknown function of the lavatory. However, a word of warning: dont press every button as all too often you will find the lavatory squirting water all over yourself and the bathroom unable to turn it off. Recent years have seen washlet technology reaching unprecedented levels of Japanese quirkiness. Some include
