We always hear two very different voices about the feeling of using a smart toilet seat: 

some people find it very practical, 

while others think it is not very useful, 

so is it really good to use a smart toilet seat? 

It actually has to do with the user's needs.

Before buying a smart toilet cover, 

make sure you ask yourself four questions and determine whether to buy it 

and what kind of smart toilet cover to buy based on the results of the questions.

First: Why do you want to install a smart toilet seat?

There are two uses for a smart toilet seat.

The first is comfort, by which I mean the seat heating function.

Especially in winter, sitting on a warm toilet seat is a feeling of well-being that you have never experienced before.

However, this function uses one unit of electricity per day, 

which may not be acceptable to the elderly (you can turn it off if you don't like it).

Wealwell's smart toilet seat only 0.003 USD of electricity is consumed for each work. 

It only costs 0.015 USD (0.105/kWh) per day to keep the seat constant temperature under energy-saving mode.

Secondly, hygiene. Flushing the buttocks with water is definitely the future of cleaning.

Perhaps just by imagination, you still find water flushing unclean or unacceptable.

But few people who have actually used it have said so. 

Even if they can't accept it for a while, they will come around after a few uses.

The only thing that makes it difficult is actually mixing the smart toilet seat with strangers.

It's always strange to flush yourself after someone else with the same nozzle.

Therefore, if you have a lot of guests at home or in public places (offices), you should be careful when choosing one.

Secondly, can I fit a smart toilet seat in my house?

The smart toilet cover requires water and electricity to operate, water is a better solution, 

there is usually an angle valve next to the smart toilet that supplies water to the toilet.

A tee is included in the fittings for the smart toilet cover, just fit it behind the angle valve and share it with the toilet.

The key is power. 

In the last two years of renovation, an outlet is usually reserved next to the toilet. 

However, in previous renovations, there was usually none. 

This time, it is necessary to connect an additional socket to energise the smart toilet seat.

A few toilets have a special shape, being square or exceptionally large or small.

“O”shape，“V”shape or "D"shape.

Smart toilet lids are all similar in shape and size and will fit on most toilets. 

In the case of special toilets, 

the problem of not being able to buy a suitable Smart Toilet Cover may arise, 

a situation that cannot be resolved at present.

Thirdly, what do I need to look out for when buying a smart toilet seat?

1. Go for the instant heated type, not the storage type.

This kind of smart toilet cover does not have a water tank, will not accumulate bacteria and limescale, 

use more hygienic, of course, now can not buy water storage type, almost all are instant hot type.

2. Choose one with a remote control, or one with a control panel next to the toilet seat. 

The remote control is much easier to operate, especially when sitting on the toilet,

 so you don't have to crane your head to look. 

A smart toilet seat with a control panel next to the toilet seat is more convenient 

when you can't find the remote control or when it runs out of power.

Fourth, buy a smart toilet seat or a smart toilet?

This issue has been mentioned in other articles on our website.

If you don't have a toilet now, we recommend going straight for the smart toilet. 

If you already have a toilet, go for the smart toilet cover.

There are 3 reasons for giving preference to a smart toilet.

1. Smart toilets have a better overall appearance and are generally tankless in design. 

With a smart toilet in the bathroom, the bathroom will instantly be more upscale.

2. Smart toilets have more functions, such as automatic sensor flushing, 

automatic flip open toilet lid and ultraviolet sterilisation. 

The practicality of these functions is very strong, which is not provided by the general smart toilet cover.

3.The price of a smart toilet is similar to the price of a smart toilet cover + a normal toilet, or even a little cheaper.
