It's been years since I have been in a public restroom,I always had a phobia about them. Audio sinks? They work by voice command now?

Yeah, I do not like the automatic sinks either, they are so annoying trying to move my hands so they can read my hands so the water can come out to wash my hands

The automatic paper towels, I do not mind though since they read my hands easier than the sinks

Yep! It's with all this new "technology" it has more problems than it does advantages.

God forbid anyone have to push a button or turn a crank in this new space age world.


It's hilarious, used the space age was all about pushing buttons, but in THIS space age we think we can't even push buttons lol

But where I worked in the restroom they installed one of those motion censored hand towel thing, and it stayed jammed 90 % of the time.

I don't like those new super power hand blowers/dryers , they are just really loud and don't seem to do much

They kind of sound like a heavy duty leaf blower but it takes them forever to dry your hands. I'd rather use those throw away paper towels, they dry your hands much quicker.

I don't understand the point of them if they don't dry your hands right away, they look really expensive. The brown paper towels are the best, they do what they are suppose to do.

They CLAIM it saves trees from having to be cut down and it reduces trash and clutter.

You are funny. Seeing old tv shows and movies they would show a wrap around cloth that would come out of wall container and you would wipe your hands. Eventually they went when users were told they weren't hygienic.
As for faucetts in Restrooms, some I can't figure out. Here you are about to wash your hands and you can't figure out how the water comes out. Other faucetts you push on and within seconds the water stops and you need one hand to keep the water coming. Hard to do with two hands full of soap. Some days I say the heck with and walk out. Awful I know. What happened to turn the faucet and leave the water on as much as you need.

I hate those toilets that flush before you're done. BIG pet peeve.

I guess, I'm in the minority here, but with all the germs in public restrooms, the less things I have to touch, the better. Now, if only they'd make an automatic door so I wouldn't have to touch the door handle on the way out.

Really? I find they dry your hands much faster than even paper towels. LOL, the first time I used it it looked like it was going to rip my skin off.
