Test report 6: The hygiene champion can definitely be recommended to others.

Ralf Tzscheutschler

We can draw a very positive conclusion from the product test. We particularly like the harmonious appearance of the hygiene champ and the way it blends into the rest of the bathroom. Furthermore, the Quick Release function and much greater ease of cleaning are praiseworthy – thanks to the CeramicPlus coating and the rimless design with DirectFlush. Due to the open rim, hardly any deposits can accumulate there. This is the case with our other WC.

We shall definitely recommend the product to others and I shall include it in my customer advisory service if the topic comes up. Testing the product was great fun. I think our hygiene champ is still going to give us a lot of pleasure.

Test report 5: Our wellness party.

Ralf Tzscheutschler

Our wellness party was a great success! Of course everyone was very curious what it was all about when I told them that I am converting my second bathroom into a wellness temple. I think some of my friends really thought: Now he's really exaggerating! But in the end everyone was quite impressed with what can be made out of a simple basement bathroom. But most of all: They really took a shine to the hygiene champ. That surprised me most of all. No matter whether it was the design, seating comfort or the removable WC seat. The men and women were equally impressed. And when I presented the advantages with regard to cleaning thanks to DirectFlush, AntiBac and CeramicPlus, everyone realised: "He didn't take any short cuts".

The result was very positive. The women praised the ease of cleaning due to the removable WC seat and that the WC is rimless. The men paid particular attention to the design, the sloping sides and the seating comfort. This is an important criterion if it takes a little longer and you are sitting comfortably on the WC seat with a newspaper.

A friend who has a sauna landscape was particularly impressed that hardly anything sticks to the CeramicPlus surface. He is thinking about converting his WCs to this great product as some guests still don't appear to know what a toilet brush is for.

All in all, there were only positive statements about our new hygiene champ.

Test report 4: No deposits and no odours

Ralf Tzscheutschler

Our sense of hygiene has changed. Even if you forget to use the WC brush – no deposits are visible. That's reassuring because we now know that spontaneous visitors will not experience any surprises, even if someone should have forgotten to clean up afterwards. The Hygiene Champion is almost always perfectly clean.

With our old WC, which is also still in use, you often have to look whether anything has been left behind, so to speak, to avoid getting any embarrassing comments. Moreover, you already have to clean the old WC after a week to avoid unpleasant odours. We have not been able to detect any odours from the Hygiene Champion up to now.

Plus good for the environment

This is because cleaning detergents are practically not used – just a little soapy water and that’s it. We are very sceptical about many cleaning detergents and have only been using biodegradable detergents for the past few years very sparingly. Nature has enough to do coping with what we humans leave behind. The last thing that’s needed is to pour all these chemical cleaners down the WC.

One thing’s sure, going to the WC is now always combined with a good feeling.


Test report 3: The Quick Release and Soft Closing features are just great!

Ralf Tzscheutschler

The Hygiene Champion has now been installed in its new place in our newly refurbished bathroom and I think it fits in very harmoniously into the bathroom as a whole. Besides its appearance, our new WC also has some very practical functions. For example, the cover of our old WC often slammed down if you did not hold onto it properly. Everyone in the family knew then that someone was in the bathroom. This is no longer the case thanks to the Soft Closing feature.

Furthermore, the WC seat can also be removed and reattached very easily. This Quick Release feature is a real blessing. On our old WC we used to clean around the seat attachments which was always very awkward and dirt still collected there after some time.

In summary, two thumbs up for the features of the WC seat: Quick Release and Soft Closing.

Test report 2: A cloth is all you need to clean it!

Ralf Tzscheutschler

The new hygiene champ is very easy to clean. Even though small deposits can now be seen in the lower section, cleaning is definitely much quicker. And there are hardly any deposits under the rim after three weeks. A cloth is all you need to remove any, what I would call, slight staining. I have noticed that cleaning the new DirectFlush WC is three times quicker. We shall also ask our cleaning lady what she has to say about cleaning the WC very shortly.

Stubborn staining in the old WC

We can definitely say that cleaning the old WC took much longer. A lot of dirt was discovered when giving the old WC a thorough clean. We tried to remove the deposits with a hard sponge and a cleaner, but that was only partially successful. This is probably because the coating was damaged by cleaning it with acidic cleaners. My wife always used such cleaners, for example, with citric acid at the beginning. One should therefore make sure that only neutral cleaners are used. The problem zones in the old WC are under the rim, the seat fastening and in the area where the flushing water flows into the bowl. Limescale is the main problem in these areas and removing it is difficult with neutral cleaners. The hygiene champ is still free of deposits there.


Test report 1: A beautiful design and pleasant material

Ralf Tzscheutschler

The installation went smoothly and the simple and linear shape of the Hygiene Champion creates a very harmonious impression. We particularly like the fully closed design and the slightly rounded edges of the Subway 2.0. The Hygiene Champion fits in perfectly with the rest of the bathroom furniture as the other sanitary fittings also have a slightly rounded shape.

The seat: stable and comfortable

Most of all we are looking forward to the reduced cleaning requirement and the Soft Close function of the WC cover. The seat has a very solid impression and the surface feels comfortable because of the materials used. The sitting feeling is inclined slightly forward compared to our old WC as the seat is raised slightly at the back. However, it is not unpleasant. You sit very comfortably.
