Would you put a urinal in your house?

[SuperDuck]

My future home has 2.5 baths. The basement is already finished, and we're going to use it as our entertainment room - TV, video games, etc. There's a bar and everything.

There is MORE than enough space in the basement half bath to put a urinal in. My wife, for some reason that's beyond me, doesn't want to do that. We would keep the toilet there, I explain to her, but she doesn't want to get the urinal.

I've read up and a few places cite resale value. I can see it working either very FOR me or very AGAINST me. If the right football-watching prospective house buyer ten years from now comes in and sees it, it will probably get the "OMG I need this house" reaction. At the same time, up-and-coming laywer lady might frown upon that.

I'm thinking more along the lines of "How awesome would it be to have a urinal in the house?".

Vote!

I wonder where I could fit a urinal.

I'm all for it, and now I know where next years taxes are going.

Urinals whip ass.

It would depend on how much my wife was against it. I don't do well sleeping on the couch.

We have one outside by the pool shower. It's really handy for parties. I don't know if I would put one inside. If you do, paint a target in the middle of it

 

[Figjam]

Thatd be really awesome actually.

 

[Fli]

it would be awesome. I would explain to her the amount of $ you'll save by flushing the urinal instead of the toilet.

 

[Croox]

hell yeah!!!! If/when I can afford to move out, that is something I'd have to have in my house

 

[FL Knifemaker]

I've seen waterless urinals. I have no idea how that works

What you really need is the urinal trough like they have in old stadiums and clubs.

 

[Tony In Philly]

Better than you and your friends letting loose in the washing machine basin.

Maybe that would make for a good selling point?

 

[BassChuck]

Do it. Having a urinal may be the last socially acceptable sexist statement.

 

[Lorenzini]

What a great idea! Do it!

Here's a compromise for the wifey:

 

[The Burrigible]

A URINAL IN EVERY ROOM!

Here's a compromise for the wifey:

That looks like a happy ending attachment for the guys.

 

[Quadruple Jay]

Most definitely!

I planned on putting one in when I re-do our downstairs bathroom and take an old unused tub out. My wife has no problem with it at all.

Hell, damn' a$$ yes I would!
