What if I told you that you could wash your hands after every flush without using any water? The SinkPositive toilet tank sink works by diverting the water used to fill the toilet bowl through a faucet that turns on and off automatically every time you flush. And before you ask, the water used for washing is as clean as any in your house. The only difference you’ll notice is that the water in the toilet bowl might have a little soap in it. The SinkPositive is easy to install, adjusts to fit most toilets, and costs around $100.

To be honest, by the time I’d get my clothes “back in order” and could turn around and close the toilet lid, the water would probably already be shut off, so I’d have to use the lav sink anyway. Besides, the thought of having to lean across the length of a toilet seat so as to reach the faucet doesn’t appeal to me. Not to mention the loss of space for my tissue box and potpourri… Men might like the convenience, since they’re usually already standing facing the toilet tank. Not so sure how they might feel about it on those occasions when they simply must sit.
