Go Tankless


The Purist Hatbox Toilet from Kohler
Toilets haven't changed too much since they evolved from the outhouse... the shape and parts are fairly standard and predictable. But this is different from anything we've seen.
Conventional cues of the traditional toilet are removed as the minimalist inspired electric toilet offers a clean aesthetic both visually and physically with its innovative tankless design. The result is a utilitarian product which provides tremendous performance yet offers unexpected beauty by turning common perceptions of what the traditional American toilet should look like upside down.
The form is nice and simple... hopefully the technology is simple enough that it won't be a maintenance nightmare. But then again, if you can afford the $2890 price tag...

The real wonder of it all is that the same company that can produce a toilet as sleek and straightforward as the Purist Hatbox also made this.

I'm on the fence with this design. I like it in concept, but think I'd feel as if I were doing my business in a giant bucket.

...they were inspired by the toilet on top of Mt. Whitney?
