Joining the sink and toilet together looks sleek, but it also creates a perfect slide right into the toilet bowl.

    Yeah. Another reason to keep it closed when not used.

      Right? Just close the toilet before you flush, that’s what the lid is there for.

      Otherwise the aerosolised germs are getting on your toothbrush anyway.

    That is disgusting. I know that’s not how it actually works but having the toilet physically connected to the sink looks afwul from a hygiene perspective

      In japan they put the handwashing sink on the back of the toilet. It’s smaller, smarter, and doesn’t look weird and gross like this.

      Then they brush their teeth in a different room so their toothbrush isn’t two feet from their shit.

        Funny enough that’s how most jail/prison toilets are in the US too.

      Using the water from handwashing to fill the cistern just makes sense.

    Combined toilet-sinks are a thing. It saves water by reusing the water you used to wash your hands to flush the toilet.

          It’s a useful skill to have. It’s a more useful skill to know when not to apply it.

          People pissing all over toilet seats annoy me to no end. Sit down you filthy heathens.

      That’s part of the challenge–like Poop Plinko. Can you roll 'em down the slide and land them in the small bowl?

        I get the design now. You sit with our feet in the sink and let 'em plink.

      at least if you aim at the vertical part, the piss should slide right into the bowl…

    Yes, but if you had small boys you would be praising not having to clean piss off the floor.

      Ok but, surely it would be too tempting to anyone witb a penis to pee up the side of that sink and watch it flow down to the toilet <_<… Right?

    First thought is that this is photoshopped, because the image shows one of the main problems right there with stuff slipping off the sink into the toilet. From a design position, it seems this might be desirable to keep pee from going between the toilet and sink? But then what about the other side? It doesn’t make sense. Then we get to the maintenance nightmare… sometimes they have to remove the toilet to get at the drain, and sometimes you want to upgrade or have to replace your toilet. A better idea would be a removable after-market item that provides the slope.

    Can’t wait to accidentally knock my phone into the toilet! At least it will be a fun ride
