Chinese going crazy for robo-toilet, but Luke just wants more bidets

“You hear these ads for the mattress stores and they’re always telling you that you spend a third of your life sleeping, but how much of that time is spent on the john?” wondered Luke as he pondered investing over $6,000 in an American-made robotic toilet that’s all the craze with newly well to do Chinese buyers.

The Numi features motion detectors, a remote control to open and close the seat and even flush and leg-warming porcelain. And even though it retails for a whopping $6,400, the Wall Street Journal reports customers have to get on a waiting list.

You’ll never be bored again thanks to the built in stereo system.

“I hope there’s a voice control on there so you’re not actually touching the dial and all that,” laughed guest co-host David Boze.

But forget all the technological advances in the toilet. Luke is most excited about the the three bidet settings.

“It’s the one area that America consistently lags the rest of the world, at least let’s talk about Europe and apparently now China,” Luke said.

“If you spill peanut butter in a shag rug, would you try to clean it up with a paper towel? No, you’d hit that with some water. A lot of water,” Luke laughed. “Which is why we should all spend the $6,000 and get a bidet.”
