Freshen up your bathroom: If you're looking to control bathroom odors with a little high-tech ingenuity, new toilet seats with built-in air fresheners are now available.

First, they fit most existing toilets. Just make sure to order an elongated or round front seat, depending on the type of toilet you have. These battery-operated deodorizing seats use tiny intake fans and carbon filters to help trap odors. Plus, an integrated air freshener with replaceable aroma pack cartridges adds a pleasant scent to the area. These special toilet seats can even include extra features like programmable night lights, anti-slip options and slow-closing lids.
