We decided to install wall mounted toilets and wall mounted cabinets in our house renovation. We wanted everything off the floor for easy cleaning and to give the bathrooms a larger feel. We installed Duravit toilets with Geberit carriers in the wall. We hired a plumber to rough in the plumbing ie install the Geberit. He had never done one before but I went over the instructions in the box with him as he was installing it and he had no problems. After we drywalled and painted ourselves I installed the Duravit toilets myself. It is really easy because the Geberit connections to the toilet are all done by rubber seals and bolts. No gluing required. I just had to measure and cut the connecting pipes to the correct length for the wall thickness and then tighten the nuts and blots that attach the toilet to the Geberit. In terms of the toilet itself, it works great. No problems with low flushing. In fact, these toilets seem to work better than the floor mounted. All our previous toilets in several different homes seemed to block easily, but these wall mounted have never blocked on us.

I've only seen those here in older and lower-cost homes and thought they didn't look nice. Maybe because I'm lucky enough to be the only one to use the bathroom off the MB it's never even occurred to me to use the toilet top for placing anything there. There are four built-in cabinets to the left of the sink in a recess where a lot of my items go and drawers under double drawers under the sink on each size that house my make-up, hair brushes, shaver etc. There's even enough room for two people's things with the large cabinets. There's very little on the sink counter top except a little make-up bag with items for touch-up during the day, a little ceramic bird, a water glass and a small faux bouquet of flowers in an antique toothpick holder. I hate clutter and was totally amazed when a friend came to stay for some months and the counter in her bathroom was literally covered from one end to the other. Different strokes, I guess.

O. M. G. I just went to the rev-a-shelf website. Now I know it is true that this whole business is peopled with completely obsessive folks; it is dawning on me very slowly how utterly outclassed I am. As an inveterate mess-retainer, married to a hopeless slob, I really didn't know how much effort was devoted to de-stuffage-ing. Zelmar, when I first read about your compost setup I couldn't picture it and really was unclear of its utility. I just might become a convert. Someone, plllog perhaps, noted wanting a lid for their compost. It may depend on local conditions, but I've found that lids on compost are more trouble than they're worth. You'll be dumping the goods before it starts to smell and the lid just interferes with acquisition as well as de-acquisition, plus it gets dirty and needs cleaning (before such time as it just breaks of course). I had a beautiful ceramic vase-shaped compost bucket with an iris painted on it by an artist in Monmouth, ME -- it kept breaking and I even bought a new one. But I've given up on that; compost bins need bonking on the compost walls. Now I use a square 2-quart food service plastic bucket; perfect size, shape, etc. I've never mounted it on a door but I bet it could be gerry-rigged as zelmar has above. But again, I don't even see the need of a top. Just install a wire cage for the bucket so it will lift out and be done with it. Even if there are dogs or skunks around, a kid-latch on the cabinet door should help.
