Blow out the candle and ditch the aerosol can.
Kohler Co. has introduced a deodorizing toilet seat that it says eliminates embarrassing bathroom odors and the need for candles and sprays to cover them up.
A fan hidden in the battery-operated seat sucks in air and pushes it through an odor-eating carbon filter, followed by an optional scent pack. Product manager Jerry Bougher said the idea is to attack smells where the action is.
The $90 seat is one of many high-tech gadgets that Wisconsin-based Kohler and its competitors have introduced in recent years to make time spent in the bathroom more pleasant.

what else will it eat??
will it bite?
Good ole Kohler, beautiful to buy but they spit in the face of the plumbing repair industry that begs for them to give a thought to their products in the repair world.
This stuff is freaking amazing.
More power! Crank up the fan, get a couple PSIs of vacuum and you'll never get off that toilet and have a extra large butt hickey.
One of the many pleasures of living in a climate where we have all windows open all year. No need for this sort of “crap”, though we do remember living in houses where it would have helped.
You know what is scary . . . compounds like indole and skatole give off the fecal smell in higher concentrations, but at lower concentrations smell like flowers.
A friend of mine’s father made one in the late 1940s but it was wired to 110v and had a sensor switch that turned it on when it was sat on.
Programmable toilet seat: if female, it always is down, if male, default is up.
As men we don’t really have to worry about toilet seats, we just pee, other people can fret over whether they want it out of the way or not.
i eat, i do more than just that!
I don't buy the notion that we learn such a thing. It seems more primal than that, more like an ingrained trait.
My guess is that it’s toxic to humans at the concentrations that it smells like feces. They do use skatole and indole in perfumes after all.
That’s fine, but I want a pressure switch on the lid that activates a resonant voice recording, with a non-Negro accent, from a little speaker that assures me: “I am deeply honored to receive your waste.”
i think a’few japanese ones say that.
you seriously take the fun out of being here. you never have a moment that you can’t try to antagonize someone.
