Auto-flush sit down toilets make no sense

[wuushew]

They don't save any water and don't save any time.

Every other hands free bathroom application such as a urinals, faucets and hand dryers serve their conservation and sanitary design purpose.

Discuss.

1. If they flush every time you lean forward to wipe your ass, they are NOT saving water!!!

4. Now see

I didn't necessarily go into all the details like you did. :blush:

[Deja Q]

20. Hell, just put a piece (of TP) over the sensor. Better yet,

clog the toilet.

Also, if you prefer, to also leave a message saying how much water is being wasted...

2. The toilets that flush after you take a shit?

I love those I wish I had one at home.

3. I find

that they flush before I'm ready for them to about half the time.

[kiva]

5. Yup, and that refreshing spray is such

a pleasant surprise...not.

[geardaddy]

16. LMAO

:rofl:

My thoughts exactly.

[no name no slogan]

6. They're not auto-flush toilets. They're auto-bidets

nt

7. I remember when they intalled those where I worked.

First time that flush went off by itself I bout had a heart attack!

19. First one I ran across was at a rest stop.

I about had a heart attack too.

8. I think it is so the toilet doesn't have waste in it for the next person

[Bucky]

9. They are a physical hazard to very small people

10. Hate, hate, hate them.

They don't allow for the courtesy flush. I think the courtesy flush is what keeps society functioning.

[Richardo]

15. There's a manual over-ride button on ours.

The courtesy flush lives in our office.

11. Especially when the sensors are so fickle that just leaning forward will cause it to flush.

... which is even more annoying when its one of those that has such a powerful flush that it SPRAYS WATER EVERYWHERE.

[applegrove]

12. They are more sanitary. You can now get through the whole bathroom routine without

touching anything anyone else has touched. And that is a good thing no?

[NMDemDist2]

13. well....

except for the whole door handle thing

when they come up with an auto stall door locker I'm onboard

:hide:

[applegrove]

14. That true.

[ashling]

17. You mean the ones that when you get up

go "wuushew"?

:rofl:

[ashling]

18. It resolves the problem of having to flush

before you sit down because the asshole (pardon the pun) before you did not think it was necessary to flush their shit.
:shrug:
