In the States, the only time you would normally see a moist towelette is if you are eating a plate of Buffalo wings or ribs. Everyone knows those napkins are a life saver when it comes to getting that sticky sauce off your fingers. But then there are those other times when you think, “WHY AREN’T THERE ANY WET NAPS?!?” Chips, Cheetos, fresh juicy fruit, spilled ice cream, baby messes, the list goes on and you need a wet nap NOW!
Wet napkins are much more common in Japan, and the CCP Co. Ltd. (a subsidiary of the Bandai Namco Group) has made it so you may never be more than an arm’s length away from a wet tissue!
Anyone who has spent some time in Japan knows that getting wet tissues is as simple as a trip to the local convenience store. If you buy any sort of food there, you will surely be given an abundance of them. Eventually though, you run out. You could always run to the store and buy some more, but at 3 yen ($0.03) per wet nap, this seems like an extravagance you can do without. But what if getting a wet tissue was as convenient as using the tissues you already have on hand?
Behold! The Wizumoa ZQ-WT3! It turns an ordinary tissue into a wet tissue! An internal water tank sprays a nice mist over any tissue you place over the sensor. Firing up to three sprays of mist, you can get various degrees of wetness for all your needs! Powered by battery, you can put this tissue box anywhere you like. It can go in the kitchen, living room, office; it goes wherever, because it’s a tissue box! The water reservoir holds about 60ml, which means it can be used about 500 times before you need to refill it. The battery life is expected to last up to six months as well.
If you are wondering when and where you can get your hands on this fantastic new item, we have all the details for you, right here! From the beginning of July, you can find the Wizumoa ZQ-WT3 at daily necessity stores, home stores and baby stores, for only 4,880 yen (about US$48, tax not included). July can’t come soon enough!
With this product, you won’t have to worry about those tricky food stains, disgusting keyboards, or random stickiness ever again! Look forward to the days where you can eat your Cheetos and use a computer at the same time! The best part is, people with allergies or hay fever won’t have to deal with dry, crusted noses! The Wizumoa ZQ-WT3 will be in a store near you soon!
▼The four selling points! 1. It’s so easy to use! 2. It’s good for your wallet! 3. You can have a dry tissue OR a wet tissue. 4. It can go anywhere!!!!
Be honest in the comments folks, would you ever really use this? And is the name in English the “with more” or the “whizz more”?
