TOTO Neorest AS Review 2024

So, in June 2023, TOTO decided to mix things up a bit. They're moving on from some of their well-liked Neorest toilets and bringing in some updated ones. 

One big change? The TOTO Neorest AS is stepping in for the TOTO Neorest AH. But don't worry, if you've got your heart set on the Neorest AH, we've still got some on hand. 

The Neorest AH holds its place as the medium range option, with the Neorest AS set to maintain a similar price point. 

After a thorough analysis of the TOTO Neorest AS specifications, we're convinced that this latest model brings to the table improved features and design elements, making it a worthy upgrade. 

Now, if you're looking for a TOTO Neorest AS review, we've got you covered! Let's jump right into everything you need to know about the Neorest AS bidet toilet.

TOTO Neorest AS Review 

A TOTO Neorest toilet is one of the biggest upgrades you can make to your overall bathroom experience, as they are arguably the most technologically advanced toilets on the planet. 

Dive into any TOTO Neorest toilet review, and the consensus is clear: these high-end bidets are consistently seen as a worthy investment.

Since the TOTO AS is replacing the TOTO Neorest AH, we’ll break down some of the main differences between these two models. 

The four main differences are:

1. Refreshed design with one color choice
2. Integrated, seamless seat
3. Capability for four user presets
4. Additional self cleaning

Let's delve deeper into each of these features to understand their significance for you.

One Color Option

One main difference between the Neorest AH and Neorest AS is that there is now only one color to choose from (cotton/white) whereas the Neorest AH also comes in sedona beige.

If your bathroom requires a smart toilet in a different color than white, we’d recommend purchasing a Neorest AH or TOTO Neorest RH before they’re all gone!

Cleaner Design

You’ll notice a smoother, more refined aesthetic at play here with the Neorest AS. Its contours and angles are more graceful and overall we feel it has a more refined, elegant look over the more stocky Neorest AH.

Seamless Seat

TOTO's revamped seat design ensures there's no space between the seat's underside and the toilet itself. This effectively minimizes the chances of dirt and bathroom residue accumulating in those challenging-to-clean spots. 

Though it may not revolutionize the bathroom experience, this considerate design refinement showcases TOTO's dedication to harmonizing aesthetics and practicality.

Four User Presets

TOTO has elevated user personalization with their latest offering. The Neorest AS remote control now has the capability to store preferences for up to four users, a notable enhancement from the TOTO AH's two-user memory.

Just choose your custom setting on the remote, and the Neorest AS will tailor the experience to your preference. Interacting with the TOTO AS remote remains as intuitive as ever, mirroring the ease of the AH's controller.

So, whether your household boasts several Neorest bidet toilet enthusiasts, or you desire different settings for various seasons (or even times of day), the expanded memory offers heightened adaptability.

Extra EWATER+ Rinse

Every TOTO Neorest model incorporates EWATER+ technology for automatic cleaning of the wand and bowl after each use. But what exactly is EWATER? 

EWATER is essentially electrolyzed water, a prevalent cleaning technology in the food service and hospitality sectors. As far as we're aware, TOTO stands out as the sole company employing it in bathroom products.

EWATER+ is highly regarded as a natural cleaner because it's:

• Mildly acidic (with a higher pH level)
• Eco-friendly
• Free from chemicals
• Safe for humans

A distinctive feature of the Neorest AS is its additional rinse beneath the bidet toilet seat, complementing the wand and bowl cleaning. This enhances the hygiene factor.

It should be noted that the new Neorest RS does not have this extra EWATER feature.

TOTO Neorest Toilet Reviews

While this TOTO Neorest review has been solely focused on the Neorest AS, there are a variety of other Neorest toilets being discontinued and replaced with new models. 

Among those being discontinued and replaced is the fan favorite TOTO Neorest 700H. In its place is the Neorest LS. 

You can read our official review of the TOTO Neorest LS right here.  

For a full comparison of all the differences between the Neorest LS and the TOTO 700H, you can read our comparison guide here. 

Also, as mentioned earlier, the TOTO Neorest RH is being discontinued and replaced with the Neorest RS. 

While we don’t currently have a TOTO Neorest RH review or a TOTO Neorest AH review, we feel that our official review of the TOTO Neorest RS (and the one you’re reading right now) will be more up to date and helpful in choosing the right Neorest smart toilet. 

Also announced as getting an upgrade is the TOTO Neorest NX1. This top-of-the-line smart toilet from TOTO will retain its name, but feature a few new delightful changes.
