American Standard is one of the earliest international bathroom brands to enter the Chinese market, and is also the leading manufacturer of bathroom products in North America, founded in 1861. In the early days of its entry into the Chinese market, it performed well in product operation, and the sanitary ware produced by it was adopted by many high-end places, and was selected as an Olympic venue in 2008 and a World Expo venue in 2010. However, due to the slow product update and the solidification of the style positioning, the market performance has gradually been unsatisfactory. In 2013, American Standard was acquired by Japan's LIXIL Group, which also owns first-tier bathroom brands such as Grohe and INAX, and the market performance of American Standard has also begun to pick up. In 2017, American Standard accounted for 5.3% of China's bathroom market, ranking fourth.
On the official website of American Standard, a total of six squatting toilets are listed, but only one product is listed on its official online flagship store. This model of CCAS8009 squatting toilet corresponds to the CP-8009.000 on the official website, which is the lowest overall height of the American Standard squatting toilet without water storage bend, which is 230mm, which is easy to construct and install, and adopts a rear-mounted sewage outlet. However, the height of another American standard squatting toilet without a water trap is only 235mm, and other brands have squatting toilets with a height as low as 170mm, so its main competitiveness is not strong. In addition, the CCAS8009 flush holes are of the same size, and the flushing strength is slightly weaker than that of squatting toilets with different sizes and reasonable arrangement of flush holes.
The American Standard CCAS8000 squatting toilet also features an ultra-thin design, with its own front baffle and trap, with an overall height of 288mm, which is the thinnest of the squatting toilets with a trap, and it is also competitive with other brands. It adopts the sewage discharge method of front discharge, and the flush hole is the same size, and the scouring force is still difficult to be called the best. But fortunately, the overall glaze process of the American Standard squatting toilet is excellent, the surface is smooth and smooth, and it is not easy to hang dirt, which will not cause trouble for rinsing.
