It's a time for decompression, both of your bowels and your mind, and for most people, one of those stalls becomes a home bowl. Every workplace has that person who spends way more time than probably necessary, and we make our jokes, but their way of life is at risk now.

The company will offer two models, one wall mounted, and one floor mounted. The intention is to help the health of those who are spending half an hour on the pot, putting them at risk of hemorrhoids, weakening of pelvic muscles and "Reduce musculoskeletal disorders," according to developer Mahabir Gill.
