Genius!

That lady's got a smart man. She just doesn't appreciate it yet. You could say she hasn't figured it out yet :)

Depends on how you look at it. The imagination is rich, but other than that there's something wrong... Each basin has a hole for installing a faucet and it is located in the centre. In order to install two taps as in the picture, you have to drill two new holes and either seal the old one with something or let the splashing water run down there. No matter how hard you try, it will get there...

It's different in the '60s. A school friend of mine lived in a house with hot and cold water, and it was the same kind of thing. But there were no such taps and faucets back then, the sink was enamelled. They had bronze taps screwed into a threaded corner. So his father attached a semblance of a mixer to those taps with thin hoses and a soldered T-piece. It was relevant and profitable then. Then everything was replaced by a modern sink and faucet.

In this case, there's not even any economic benefit. The difference in the cost of a mixer tap and such a tap is so insignificant... All in all, apart from an ambiguous smile, no emotion at all.

It depends on which way you look at it. The imagination is rich, but otherwise something is off... Each sink has a hole to fit a faucet and it is centrally located.

You haven't been to the UK, then )). There are no faucets there: separate cold water and separate hot water. Most likely, the photo is from there. Well, it's ours that use it. Because: The "faucet" is made, the drain is not corked.

Are they so poor that they can't afford this luxury?

Oh, yeah. True, they say about us there: they're so poor that they can't buy a bathtub (sink) cork. )))

 
Ihor Herasko:

Otozh. True, they say about us there: they're so poor they can't buy a bathtub (sink) cork. )))

And some are so poor that they drive cars with no roof, they didn't have enough money for a roof and they even eat cheese with mould.

The budget version of the mixer
