When most people think of luxurious items, a high-end toilet probably isn’t one of the first things to come to mind. However, there are actually some very expensive toilets on the market today. If you’re in the market for an upgrade and have some extra cash to spare, these ummm, thrones might be worth a look and will impress your guests. Keep reading to learn more about some of the craziest and most expensive toilets available, according to Money Inc.
1. “Dagobert” Wooden Toilet Throne by Herbeau – $14,123
Named after an actual king, this wooden throne was named after the last ruler of the Merovingian dynasty in France, King Dagobert. Standing at an impressive five feet tall, it literally looks like a king’s throne and has features such as an elegant pull chain flush on the upper left corner. If you’re feeling like relaxing and spending some serious time on your new investment it has a candleholder, armrests, and even plays a song every time the lid is lifted.
2. Swarovski-Studded Toilet – $75,000
They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend, so does that make crystal-studded toilets a homeowner’s best friend? Priced more expensive than a luxury car, this toilet seriously sparkles like no other. This chrome-plated toilet was designed by Jemal Wright and if you can afford it, every square inch is covered in crystals. In fact, the only thing not studded in shiny-sparkly show-stopping crystals is the toilet seat itself and the inside. Unfortunately it doesn’t clean itself but you would think at that price tag it should.
3. Moon River Art Park Toilet – $750,000
Imagine waiting 2-hours to see a toilet. A public toilet that is considered to be a local tourist attraction and has been featured in many magazines, newspapers, movies- this must be one of China’s most famous toilets! Located inside the Moon River Art Park near downtown Shanghai with views for miles around that might be worth the wait. Many visitors take cameras to photograph themselves near the famous toilet.
4. Hang Fung Golden Toilet – $5 million
You could probably afford this golden toilet…that is, if you won the lottery. The Hang Fung Gold Technology Group owns this golden toilet, and it currently sits in a demonstration washroom called “The Hall of Gold.” This toilet can be viewed and visited by the public to get their photo taken with it or just come visit because they find its beauty fascinating.
5. International Space Station Toilet – $19 million
Doing your business in space is expensive! The International Space Station Toilet is the most expensive toilet on earth (well, the world). The most advanced space toilet ever made, this model is the only one of its kind. It has special features that keep astronauts in their proper position while they use a lavatory during missions and also sucks up every last bit of waste deposited by said astronaut into an on-board septic tank for disposal off world!
It’s not a surprise that people will pay for luxury. And, the most expensive toilets in the world are no exception to this general rule of life. In fact, some might argue these luxuries can be even more necessary than others.

I wanted to thank the staff and plumber that showed up at an older ladies home and did a great job while working hard so she didn't have to pay overtime. The 85 year old woman was so pleased with their kindness and work I wanted you to know. Thanks, again and you should be very proud of your company.

Late yesterday afternoon, my 92-year-old parents called me in a panic, that their faucet in the bathtub "broke" and they couldn't stop the water. They couldn't turn off the main water supply in the basem*nt because the turn valve was rusted shut! We remembered seeing the "Gene Wagner Plumbing" trucks Read More
