It’s easy to overlook the one space in your home you use every single day: the bathroom. But think about it. While nearly every part of modern life has evolved, most toilets haven’t changed much since the 1950s. For families prioritizing cleanliness, comfort, or accessibility, that’s a problem.
And that’s precisely why smart shower toilets are taking off across Colorado and the country.
These high-tech upgrades offer more than just a sleek design. They deliver a hygienic, hands-free, spa-like experience every time you go. So whether you're renovating your primary bath or planning an age-in-place upgrade, here’s what you need to know—and which three models truly stand out in 2025.
Let’s face it: toilets aren’t as clean as we like to think. According to an article published by Initial Washroom Hygiene, the average toilet contains 3.2 million colony-forming units (CFUs) of bacteria per square inch, including the toilet water. Other potential concerns with traditional toilets may include:
In short, many view them as outdated, inefficient, and often unhygienic. And for those with arthritis or balance issues? Flushing or twisting on a cold seat can pose a real health hazard.
Meanwhile, cleaning these old units is a chore, requiring frequent scrubbing and disinfectants to keep up.
Now imagine this:
A toilet that senses your presence, opens automatically, gently cleans you with warm water, dries you with warm air, and even sanitizes itself.
That’s the promise of the modern smart shower toilet—and it’s not just a luxury anymore. These units are making everyday life cleaner, more comfortable, and surprisingly sustainable.
Whether you choose to partner with HomePride for your bathroom project—or want to explore your options—we believe every homeowner deserves clear, helpful information to make the best decision possible. If smart toilets have piqued your curiosity, you're in the right place.

Best for: Premium design lovers who want reliability and elegance
For over 150 years, Kohler has been a trusted name in American bathrooms. Known for lasting quality and reliability, its products have topped third-party lists for decades, and its Veil and Karing models are no exception.
Highlights:
Front and rear cleansing wands with adjustable temp and pressure
Heated seat with warm air dryer
Hands-free auto open/close lid
Built-in deodorizer and night light
Self-cleaning and intuitive remote control
Drawbacks:
This model offers a single flush only
Its elongated egg-shaped design may not appeal to all users
Why It Wins:
It’s sleek, reliable, and deeply comfortable. The Veil and Karing offer everything you'd expect from a luxury smart toilet, backed by Kohler's U.S.-based customer support.
Modern and space-saving, this smart toilet from Kohler brings a minimalist aesthetic that fits seamlessly into any bathroom design. It’s packed with thoughtful features, including a self-cleaning wand, a warm-air dryer, adjustable temperature controls, and hands-free seat operation.
An LED light softly illuminates the bowl at night for added convenience. And with a WaterSense-certified single flush that uses just 1.28 gallons per flush, it strikes a smart balance between performance and efficiency, right in line with the best models on our list.
Best for: Families, seniors, and energy-conscious households
Don’t let the mid-range price fool you. This model is packed with thoughtful features for everyday ease.
Highlights:
Auto lid, seat, and flush
5 bidet spray temps and customizable modes
Warm air dryer and deodorizer
WaterSense certified for efficiency
Soft-close seat and night light
Drawbacks:
Why It Wins:
This is the most approachable, all-around model we’ve seen. It is excellent for families, aging homeowners, or anyone who values comfort without excess complexity. With five seat temperatures, customizable water settings, a warm-air dryer, and automatic flushing, this model offers a highly personalized and comfortable experience.
Multiple nozzles provide targeted cleansing options, making it feel more like a spa than a standard toilet. One standout convenience? The seat lifts and closes on its own—no reminders needed. Plus, a built-in night light provides just the right amount of glow for late-night visits, without blinding brightness.
Best for: Streamlined, feature-rich performance at a still-refined price
This sleek model delivers many of the advanced features found in premium options. In fact, Good Housekeeping praised the B-0960S for its high-end capabilities and seamless, one-piece design.
Highlights:
Dual front/rear cleansing with adjustable pressure and temperature
Heated seat with automatic opening/closing lid
Warm air dryer and LED night light
Self-cleaning nozzle system
Drawbacks:
Materials lack durability when compared to other smart toilet models
Larger tank may make seating awkward
Why It Wins:
What sets this model apart is its versatile bidet system. You’ll find multiple wash modes (like posterior and feminine wash), along with adjustable water temperature and pressure. It even includes a touchscreen remote that can be handheld or wall-mounted depending on your setup—an especially helpful detail for users with limited mobility.
The sleek, one-piece design gives it a modern look, and the integrated tank keeps the profile clean. However, it’s worth noting that the larger tank does create a bit of extra bulk at the back, which might feel a little forward-pitched at first. And while it looks refined, the material build may not match the durability of premium-tier brands.
HomePride Tip: Before choosing this or any model, double-check your bathroom layout—especially the location of your water valve and nearby electrical outlet. Smart toilets like this one require both for proper installation.
Best for: Those wanting elegance and Kohler reliability in an all-in-one unit
This is the second Kohler product to make our list. And not just ours. Other respected third parties including Good Housekeeping, Giving Tree Home, Wayfair, and various owner ratings and reviews place this model at the top of their lists as well.
Kohler’s Innate updates the one-piece smart toilet category with luxury touches. According to a tester from Good Housekeeping, “I really appreciate the bidet features … The auto flush is amazing, it’s nice to look at, and it’s much easier to clean than a regular toilet.”
Highlights include:
Discreet dual nozzles for front/rear washing
Automatic lid and flush
Warm air dryer and heated seat
Minimalist aesthetic with easy-to-clean surfaces
Drawbacks:
This model sits higher in price than other models
Its larger design may not be suitable for smaller spaces
Why It Wins:
The Innate combines refined styling with advanced features, meeting expectations for luxury and low maintenance. It also checks all the boxes our pros look for in a high-performance toilet—starting with a water-efficient 1.28 gallons per flush, earning it EPA WaterSense certification. The dual-flush option adds even more control. Its comfort-height seat makes sitting and standing easier, especially for those planning to age in place.
Paired with hands-free, hygienic cleaning, it’s a smart upgrade that supports both independence and daily comfort.
Best for: Budget-conscious buyers who want luxury features
EPLO is newer to the market, but it’s making a splash—pun intended—and turning heads fast. It’s rapidly climbed the ranks on trusted review platforms like Good Housekeeping, Trustpilot, and popular YouTube channels, thanks to its impressive lineup of user-friendly features and everyday conveniences paired with a budget-friendly price tag.
Highlights:
Foot-sensor flush and hands-free operation
LED display showing temps for seat and water
Instant warm water and deodorizer
Heated seat and self-cleaning nozzle
IAPMO-certified for performance and safety
Drawbacks:
Why It Wins:
You get high-end functionality at a fraction of the price. The EPLO is a standout option for first-time smart toilet buyers or rental property upgrades.
Where the EPLO really stands out is in its innovation. It’s one of the only models we’ve seen with foot-sensor flushing and an LED screen that displays both air and water temperature—a thoughtful touch that enhances usability and accessibility.
One tradeoff? Unlike comfort-height toilets (typically around 17 inches), the EPLO’s standard 15.6-inch seat height may be less ideal for older adults or those with mobility issues.
Still, when it comes to reliability, it doesn’t fall short. The EPLO is certified by reputable industry organizations, including the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO). It’s also earned strong reviews from homeowners on Amazon, many of whom say it’s the best value they’ve found in a space dominated by four-figure models.
