Sink toilet!
I feel like we talked about this idea a while back, but seeing it, its not as strange as it sounded!
I kinda like it!
The Caroma Toilet
In drought-striken Australia, where wasting water is unforgivable, Caroma's Profile toilet features a faucet situated on top of the tank. After each flush, water pours out the faucet and into a recessed drain until the tank is refilled, giving you the chance to wash your hands and save water from going down the drain, just yet.
Re: Sink toilet!
lol MsEmily, I think you could stand beside it!
Jpeazy, its not the flush timing, its the water refill. It takes a decent amount of time to refill the tank, plenty of hand-washing time.
Somehow, I wasn't shocked by a sink-toilet, and I think it's because ST was considering putting one in at one point. I think the sink part was a lot bigger on the one she posted a picture of - more like normal toilet tank width. I wonder if she ever put one in?
I think they're a fabulous idea, especially in very small bathrooms.
Aha!! That's where we discussed it before!! We'll have to see if she still has the info on the one she was considering.
I like it.
OOOOOH! Lol. Well, that makes much more sense! This would be great for a half bath or guest bath. Smack a mirror behind it, and you've got all-in-one gold!
Someone posted that on d&r, and some people were grossed out by it. I thought it was kind of cool.
I just got back from Japan, and I never saw anything like that. Fwiw, I thought their toilets used an obscene amount of water. The public bathrooms often had bidets and seat warmers, and many (including our hotel) reminded us of RV bathrooms.
