Do you have an extra $6400? That's what one of these models will cost you. This is one of those things, like those super spas found in some Bed and Breakfasts that constitute a plumbing indulgence that might be too easy to get accustomed to.
I like the intriguing ads that Kohler uses for its product: they arouse interest in the viewer since the purpose of the ad is not screamingly obvious. The viewer must take the trouble to discern it, to seek closure, to fill in the incomplete information. What is going on in this somewhat romantic setting: is it to be a proposal, an assignation, a prelude to a sophisticated evening? Is it such an occasion to use this spectacular toilet that it is a social occasion in a room with a view? The viewer craves further information.
And I wish I had her dress and 'do.
I think this might be an example of the Zeigarnik effect in application: individuals are more likely to remember incomplete rather than complete information.
How Gestalt of them!

Kohler is the only company to turn adverts for bathroom fixtures into an art form.
There seems to be a hilarity in the whole setup: like the high-maintenance chick is going to go on the throne in front of that guy!
And in front of a window no less.
I bet Romney gets one..hope it short circuits on his tush too!
I saw it earlier, but couldn't immediately figure what it was about.
Really amazing!
Couldn't help but think of this SNL skit from the past:

There is a Japanese toilet that does all this one does, plus measures your blood pressure. I was ready to buy one just to see where the blood pressure cuff goes ...
we never seem to run out of ways to waste money
it looks a bit like a beer cooler, that would be an interesting accident
Maybe it could double as a beer cooler, like bidets can.
