Here is a project for someone - I'm sure it can be done for less than Kohler's $6,400 price tag...

Not for TV / VCR / anything remote challenged folks like me.
Have to agree wholeheartedly with OBC's comment. Also am underwhelmed by Kohlers creativity and marketing acumen. Another product for those with more money than brains.
And when looking at toilets, I came across not one, but several "electric toilets / seats"!
So I added a dedicated outlet for the toilet.
I have no plans to add an electric toilet, but my house is now "electric toilet ready"!
If Kohler wants to modernize toilets, how about one that shuts off automatically if it is about to flood the bathroom or continues to run if the fiil valve is stuck!
Took me about 3 minutes to decipher what exactly the 'front' and 'rear' buttons do... I missed that day in etiquette class.
If anyone from the Kohler design team is reading, I am willing to offer my design skills (for a large amount of cash) to produce better graphics for those functions....
(I know, I know, if you don't get it, you probably will not be using a $6000 WC.....)
