    It's only a matter of time before someone reverse-engineers it into an Easy-Cheez dispenser. #ceilingmountedfaucet

    I have one of these. It's in a small room with waterproof walls and a drain in the floor. I find it incredibly useful. #ceilingmountedfaucet

    @USB_Humping_Dog: None. Besides keeping their nails well trimmed, I've had them since they were 1 day old, so they let me get away with a lot. Especially the orange dummy above. Here is the after shot an hour or so later.

    @USB_Humping_Dog: Mine were born outside, so it took us a day to find them, as Mom was careful not to let anyone know where she was running to. We found them in a hole in our manure pile, where it was toasty and warm. And yeah, they look good, but that's only because Mom is a cutie herself. #ceilingmountedfaucet

    Think too hard about this stuff?

    You guys make it sound like you're able to get a perfect shower spray out each time, every time.


    Cognitive scientists, at least those in design engineering like myself, worry about this crap all the time so that you don't have to think about using them. Ever notice your phone keypad has '1' at the top left, and on a calculator it's at the bottom right? No? We do. And we know why it works that way too.

    @Sushiwriter: Why do you call yourselves "cognitive scientists". A cognitive scientist studies how and why people thing, not how they respond to design concepts.


    If you're in the field of "design engineering" why not just friggin call yourselves "Design engineers".

    @Texas, Texas yee haw_Nick:


    Okay, go to some grocery or gas store and buy bottled water.


    Pour it into a glass.


    Fill another glass with sink water.


    Drink both and you will notice how nasty sink water tastes compared to bottled water. New Zealand's water is as clean as bottled water.

    @Theimbellis: The quality and taste of the tap water really depends on what state or city you are in. Generally speaking though, it doesn't matter which state you are in, bottled water is a waste of money. Tap water tastes just fine.

    @y2julio: "Also, NYC has the best tap water in the United States." Really? In what way?


    [www.sustainlane.com]

    Ranks Kansas City, MO as #1 in terms of pollutants in the water.


    [www.forbes.com]

    Des Moines, Iowa; Austin, Texas; and Sioux Falls, S.D.


    As far as taste goes, it's all relative I suppose.

    You can also duct tape your bumper to your car, or have it secured with bolts. They both do the same thing, but one is certainly less attractive than the other.

    As someone who literally just spent $100 on a plumber, let me just say "DO NOT WANT".


    Give me a solid, traditional faucet that can be used with ease and repaired simply and cheaply.
