Vicki McCaw of Aiken, S.C., recently bought one as an anniversary gift for her husband. It sits directly across from the fireplace and a pair of fish tanks under construction in the couple's bathroom. Mrs. McCaw says she first ordered the J-Allure without a TV, thinking it too small, but later changed her mind. He promises more high-tech products for the bathroom, although he won't get specific. Architects predict the urge to multitask in the bathroom will spread.
People say they read in bed and work in bed.
The toilet will be behind a closed door. Putting the toilet in its own room opens up the rest of the space for other activities. All of this can be humbling to people with smaller bathrooms, as the Koenigs can attest. After the engagement celebration at the Paulson home, they surveyed their own bathroom for party potential and found it wanting. We just don't have the space.
