    If toilet paper can cause scratches on that hard material, it must also be causing damage to the skin. Does it really need to be that tough a material to do its job?

    I personally love the sensation of sitting in cooled yellow liquid when I crap. Its the only reason I eat at McDonald’s.

    You should instead use Toto brand toilet wipes. 39.99 for a value pack of 15!

      (un)expected factorial? 1,30767e12 wipes seems like a lot. I guess you never specified currency, but at an average cost of 3,0581e-11 per wipe, I’ll assume that that’s a pretty decent deal.

    Do these designers not have children? Wiping pee off the seat is like an every time thing; seems silly not to just use a bit of toilet paper.

    Even I have to clean up when I miss; which happens max, max, 95% of the time.

      And if paper that immediately dissolves when wet scratches the seat; maybe use better materials.

        Toilet paper is wood, while the seats are plastic. Wood is a 2.5-ish on the mohs scale, and plastics tend to be too. So they scratch at a 2.5 with deeper grooves at a level 3, even on a micro scale. The alternative is to use ceramics for the seat, but the fragility means one rough drop of the seat and it could shatter. Metals are generally no better.

      Pee sit down, like when you shit, give it a try, not reason to not do it and saves a loooooooooot of burden, including time.

        WoW! Judging the current net negative downvotes I assume that the voters were not ready for my proposal, but I swear that I enjoy several orders of magnitude less mess and higiene in my toilet seat since I did it without any drawback… good luck!

      Their children are furry and meow. But in all seriousness, I would consider it an engineering oversight for not considering how their product is being used in real households.

      Even I have to clean up when I miss; which happens max, max, 95% of the time.

      You miss a max of 95% of the time? 🙃 On a related note, most people are bad with percentages.

        Cat claws are infinitely sharper than toilet paper, and cats like to explore. Checkmate against Toto?

    Every public bathroom I’ve used has pee all over the toilet seat. I don’t understand why guys don’t either use the urinal or sit on the toilet, why piss on the seat?
