According to the National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) Living Impacts Design Report for 2020, easy cleaning is hugely desired in both the bathroom and the kitchen. 59% of NKBA survey respondents say they want self-cleaning toilets in their bathrooms. While 62% say they want a giant sink in their kitchen for easy washing and cleaning. Now why would people want these things specifically? We can thank technology and social platforms for that.
