The Toilet Topic

If they spend the money on getting Hex and Skyride open over giving us triple quilted toilet tissue then that's fine with me

What more modern features are needed? As long as the toilet works, has a seat and a door round it.

My main pet hate with most public toilets now is dryer provision, who thinks they need six sinks but only one dryer? Should always be one dryer for every sink, unless paper towels are provided.

Which is the issue with most of Towers toilets, not enough hand dryers! The new ones at Thorpe have one hand dryer per sink. Those automatic flushes in some of the Towers toilets are awful as well, not been a problem so much for me but I am sure @Sazzle will be table to testify.

The toilets at Thorpe even smell nice, well, most of the time!

Legoland used to have a bubblegum scent pumped out in their toilets, do they still do that?

The AT toilets are functional clean and usable. The lack of hand driers and them being dated is the only issue.

I would argue you want less modern features then!
I agree that automatic flushes aren't the best though, handles are more reliable.

The toilets are towers are scent themed using aroma pods to make them smell like toilets. Honestly, what do people want? Them smelling like freshly cut grass or roses?

On a similar note, I remember the ones at the top of Towers Street did used to have funny sound effects.

I noticed today that there are new hand dryers and soap dispensers in all the loos I used which was most of them.

Although only 1 soap dispenser for 6 sinks is a bit daft and doesn’t exactly encourage hygienic behaviour.

Same at my work, 3 sinks and 1 dryer. Do you think since we have these dryers that blow 2000mph air at your hands that the makers sold them as you need less machines due to less time using them? Most rest rooms had equal dryers before they became Dyson ones became a thing

I’ve found toilets not having enough driers an issue for ever. The old World Dryers that vaguely blow warm air took forever so one per set of toilets was just weird. At least the Dyson ones can get them dry in 30 seconds!

Just don’t go too far and make them like the cringelets in the dome at Thorpe. Those quotes on the walls make me want to die every time I go in.

Thing is, in a theme park, for every 3 sinks probably only 1 person washes their hands afterwards!
