It has eight highly pressurized jets which clean the interior of the bowl. This means no one will have to worry about leaving those horrid stains after flushing anymore. Best of all, there is a built-in air freshener which will allow users to pretend that they are made by Mattel and don’t have smelly excretion odours. Read more
