Don't forget to flush the washer


From GearCrave: This Washup Concept Toilet/Washing Machine is NOT an April Fool’s joke... it’s a concept design entry in the Greener Gadgets Competition ‘08. Sevin Coskun’s combination washing machine and toilet is built to save water by routing the wash water into the toilet tank. Instead of flushing plain water, you use the washing machine’s runoff to wash away your runoff. A strange concept with at least one major design flaw: there’s nothing to stop your Superman briefs from falling right into the toilet if you forget to close the lid. Personally, I can't imagine leaning over the crapper every time I want to bleach my whites. I like the idea of recycling the water, but I think a better implementation of this would be to put the laundry room next to the bathroom, and pipe the washer water to a regular toilet.
