This innovation will slow down the line in front of the sink. Not an improvement.

It'd be funny if somehow it malfunctions and the blower sprays water all over the user!

One of the museums I go to has something like this in their restrooms. When you put your hands under the sensor, it gives you some water, then some soap, then more water and finally air blows out to dry your hands. Its kind of cool, and it gives you enough time in between each step to properly wash your hands.

Agree with Bruin. You know how much water people tend to leave all over a public wash basin. It would spray all that water all over.
Kind of down on Dyson lately. Not impressed with the vacuums.

All these new air dryer technologies are kind of ridiculous. Ever try to staunch the flow from a paper cut with an Air Blade? After washing your face, can you dry it with this new Dyson system? How does one dry the countertops with these? Paper towels will always have a place in public restrooms, try as the ubiquitous "They" might to demonize them. The building I work in thought it would be clever and save a buck by pulling out the paper towel dispensers and replacing them with Air Blades. Three weeks later we had both and I rarely hear the noisy Air Blades in use. Lesson? If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
