There has always been one universal problem when it comes to toilets: the toilet seat cover. Men leave the toilet seat up, women hate it when men forget to put the seat down, and children find the seat too big for them to use. Solution? The Beetles Wing Toilet.
The Beetles Wing Toilet seat opens when pressure is applied to the pedal in front of the seat. The pedal also causes the seat to shrink, which makes it easier for children to sit. With this kind of design, many women are likely to invest in the Beetles Wing toilet to prevent any future cases of "forgetting to put the toilet seat down."
