      We purchased the kitchen faucet from Costco and it works like the one in the video. It uses a single handle to mix hot and cold, as well as the speed of the water. You set the temperature and speed with the handle manually, then toggle the faucet on and off by waving your hand.

    Tubs like that don't need to be so expensive. There's actually a video here on CZcams, about day to day life of a family in Japan in the 70's and it features a scene of a man taking a bath with his son in a tub like the one in this video, but it's an old looking avocado colored 70's looking tub. The water goes up to his chest. The bath scene is the thumbnail image and I'm sure the reason that video has so many views is because people want to see that weird tub. I'm sure it didn't cost anywhere close to $16,000, and it wouldn't today either, if you could find one from Japan. I also don't like the Kohler kitchen faucets that have the hose right in it. They're to big and clunky and annoying. I'd rather have the hose as a separate thing on the side, like it is on older sinks. I think they're making some stuff to over engineered and to needlessly complicated.
