Talking Toilet To Invade The UK


It’s coming to a bathroom (restroom) near you; if you are in the UK, that is.

The Clean Seat Matic comes from Holland and is a 'talking toilet' which tells users when to press the flush. It contains a three-minute speech chip with a recorded set of instructions. Check out the video below

The system automatically places a paper cover seat and on flushing washes away everything including the paper seat. According to Hans van Reenen of manufacturer Clean Seat Holland said: 'The Clean Seat Matic is the first profit-making toilet that also provides a better experience for the customer. Customers appreciate this service and pay full attention to the messages.'
