Hide-a-way Home Urinal Conserves Water

hidden-home-wall-urinal.jpgI confess that as a lady I don't get terribly excited about the idea of a urinal hanging from my bathroom wall, but if you've got more guys in the house than girls, it just might make sense from a water conservation standpoint.

By nature, urinals require less water per flush than toilets, and this hide-a-way unit (it folds up into the wall when not being used) uses less water than most at just 10 ounces per flush. And since it folds into the wall, it's definitely space efficient.

According to the Mister Miser web site, installation is inexpensive, and the unit weighs just 6.5 pounds, so one person could probably handle the job. The urinal is made from recyclable ABS-Structural Plastic. Operation is quiet and there's no "splash back."

The urinal can be ordered online and costs $295.

This is certainly different. I'm wondering who would use these? I think they woud need to put a sticker on the front saying urinal, or nobody woud know what it was.

Well I guess family members would know after using the urinal once or twice. :P You might have to warn guests though.

I can just imagine this sticker you're thinking of though...
