The Kohler Numi 2.0 Intelligent Toilet is a strange product that exists in a space somewhere between excess and luxury. It draws so heavily on trends in technology and buzzwords that it’s identical to parody. Kohler promised in a press release that customers would find all the practical features in the toilet like water efficiency checks, which makes sure that only necessary amount of water is used. In the dead of night, a convenient feature of smart lighting will make it easy to see your way around the bathroom. The lights are multicolored, dynamic, and interactive so they can adjust to the setting.
