Why don't Americans use smart toilets?

Why Americans don't accept smart toilets;

1, the traditional toilet can be cleaned after going to the toilet, but the smart toilet needs to be cleaned and dried, which takes at least four minutes.

2. After the traditional toilet is flushed once, it takes two to three minutes to flush again, while the smart toilet can flush continuously.

3, smart toilets cost electricity.

Smart toilets are also used in the United States, but they are not popular. 1964, Arnold Cohen, an American, spent two years developing an intelligent toilet lid with washing and drying functions. The motive is to facilitate his sick father. After obtaining the invention patent, he was ambitious and wanted to do a big job, taking his smart toilet seat to participate in exhibitions all over North America and trying to put in advertisements. However, the actual sales volume is not ideal. In the past 45 years, he has only sold 200,000 smart toilet seats. At that time, many advertisers refused to advertise the smart toilet seat, which was considered vulgar and indecent.

Cohen himself said helplessly, "advertising is a very difficult thing, and no one will listen to you about how to clean your hips." Users don't think there is anything unsanitary about using the existing traditional toilets and paper towels, so they don't want to bother to update them.
