If you’re lucky enough to have a retractable sprayer attached to your kitchen faucet, you’ve probably noticed that its circular blast often isn’t powerful enough to really scrape dishes clean. To fix that, Kohler is introducing what it calls Sweep spray technology that blasts stuck-on food with a wide blade of water that works like a liquid scraper.
You know that you are living in a Jetsons world when the porcelain throne that you sit upon each morning comes with a wireless remote control – and even so, that hails back all the way to the year 2010, now how about that? Well, the folks over at Kohler have come up with yet another item for your home’s bathrooms which will offer sheer technological luxury, where it will be known as the Numi Comfort Height. Well, what can one expect from a toilet bowl that costs a whopping $6,000?
The Numi Comfort Height will now be equipped with a USB port (!), which will come in handy when the Kohler technician needs to introduce quicker and newer software updates. Not only that, there is also an integrated Bluetooth receiver that will be ideal to stream tunes while you are busy offloading last night’s chicken wings, and the presence of an SD memory card reader is useful for importing playlists and personalized welcome greetings. Heck, Kohler even threw in an accessible battery pack that allows you to flush in the dark, and ambient lighting is there to ensure you have the coolest toilet bowl in the neighborhood.

We know what you’re thinking: The only thing missing from my ridiculously expensive, excessively tricked-out toilet is a USB port. Well it’s time you welcomed your posh posterior to the 21st century, because Kohler’s just released the second edition of its now $6,000 throne: the aptly named Numi Comfort Height. In addition to the aforementioned port, which will enable quicker software updates, the outfit has enhanced the commode with a Bluetooth receiver for streaming tunes to your tush; SD card reader for importing playlists and personalized welcome greetings; an accessible battery pack for flushing in the dark; and ambient lighting so you can keep the party going when it’s time to take care of business. If that wasn’t enough to elevate your toilet time, Kohler’s lifted the seat to a more comfortable 18 inches, which it says “makes sitting down and standing up easier for most adults.” So it still doesn’t come in gold and you can’t pay for it in Bitcoins, but those precious currencies have hit the skids anyway, right?

Some people love to sing while taking a shower. Not to brag, but I’m one of the world’s greatest listeners, so I prefer my bathtime music to come from another source. If you have the same preference, first of all high five! Second, here’s a shower head who prefer to leave our music to the professionals.
Made by Kohler, the Moxie shower head comes with a waterproof Bluetooth speaker. It can be paired and stream audio from any Bluetooth-capable device from up to 32ft. away. You can also detach it from the shower head and use it as a normal Bluetooth speaker or for when you need to recharge its Li-ion battery via USB.
It’s also great for covering up your number 2 hits. The Moxie shower head is available from Amazon for $199 (USD).

Like to sing in the shower? Take a seat on your grandma’s old bathing stool — your own shower head is about to show you up. Kohler’s latest water dispersal nozzle, Moxie, features a detachable Bluetooth speaker secured in the shower head’s center with a magnet. It sounds like a bad Yakov Smirnoff gag: in Soviet Russia, shower sings to you! The speaker pops off the sprayer when it’s time to towel off, and promises to provide up to seven hours of sudsy tunes before needing a recharge. The only thing it seems to be missing is a water powered micro-turbine. Read on for Kohler’s official press release.
