Small things that make life more convenient

Oddly, they both come from Kohler.

One is the "quiet close" toilet seat. We alwasy close our toilet lids - first, because we don't want our dog drinking out of the toilet, and second, because they just look better that way. These quiet close seats mean you simply need to tilt the seat past the equilibrium point, and they gently close. This has a downside, however. At other people's house, we freuqently slam the toilet seats when we just tip them past the equilibrium point...

The second are bottom basin racks for sinks. We bought one of these when we decided to NOT buy a double sink. They are so nice to have, that we bought one for the other, exisiting sink in the house. It makes it much easier to wash and dry dishes, and it is simply convenient.

Odd, little things that make life easier.

  1. We also close the toilet lids in our apartment for the same reasons, but substitute the dog for a cat.

    I think the family above me has contests to see who can slam down the toilet seat / lid the loudest. Maybe they need the "quiet close."
