Hands-free toilet business!

I wonder if talking about this design makes me veritable potty-mouth, but tech in the bathroom hasn’t seen much advancement since bathroom-selfies. The Magic is a toilet frame with some true magic in it. It embeds a wide variety of controls that allow you to work the lids and even UV purify the commode without having to touch it anywhere. Everything can be operated from a control panel on the side of the toilet frame. Just don’t forget to make sure you’ve washed your hands before running the controls. Especially if you’re a leftie!

The Magic toilet frame is a winner of the Red Dot design award for the year 2016.
