RaceTrac has launched a major rollout of Washie smart toilet seats in RaceTrac Travel Center locations across seven states, including Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Alabama, Texas, South Carolina, and Kentucky.
The initiative follows a three-month pilot program at RaceTrac’s busiest travel center in Atlanta. According to the companies, the pilot garnered overwhelmingly positive feedback with customer surveys, with 95% of respondents indicating they felt significantly more comfortable using the restroom with Washie seats, and 96% of customers saying they would return to RaceTrac because of the new innovation in the restroom. There have been over 600 five-star reviews from RaceTrac customers since the rollout.
Washie’s smart toilet seats eliminate the need for toilet seat covers by allowing users to clean it with an alcohol-based solution, “ensuring a hygienic and pleasant experience every time.” The solution not only cleans the seat but leaves it with a refreshing scent, the company said.
"We are thrilled that RaceTrac has chosen to expand the use of our smart toilet seats across multiple states," said Rob Poleki, CEO of Washie. "The feedback we’ve received has been incredibly positive, and this rollout is a testament to the value our product brings. We look forward to continuing our partnership with RaceTrac to provide their customers with the best possible restroom experience."
