And the toilet comes with two flush options - heavy and light. Remember, it's all about the conservation here so there is very little water used. Cool on conservation, but very very different!https://barbersabroad.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/img_9176.jpgIMG_9176The "interesting" bathroom, with the shower smack in the middle.
