7 Features
Here is a list of 7 features my Japanese home has that I think are nifty (and that I don’t have in America)
1. A Japanese Toilet
It has a heated seat, as well as many other features.
2. An in-toilet Sink
The water you use to wash your hands fills the tank and is used to flush the toilet for the next person. Not only is it economic, but also eco-friendly.
3. A rice Cooker
I love rice.
4. An…intercom thingy
I don’t quite remember what it’s called, but you can view who’s at your front door without having to open it as well as talk to the person who’s there.
5. A Japanese Style Entry Hall
While many homes around the world have entry halls, this one is special in that you must take your shoes off. It keeps the floors in the house very clean.
6. A Double-lock Door
While annoying to lock, it’s a very safe door as you cannot kick it down (You can quite easily kick down a one-lock door. ) Though it’s somewhat unnecessary considering Japan is so safe.
7. A Japanese Bathroom
Another economic feature of a Japanese home. You sit on the stool and wash yourself, and then soak in the tub that’s full of hot water. It’s economic in the sense that everyone in the household uses the same bathwater (The bathwater is clean, after all, considering you washed off beforehand)
