If only this had been around for Howard Hughes.
Germaphobes — and yes, that includes us — will be positively giddy over the Foot Flush.
The plastic doodad allows you to flush without ever having to touch the toilet handle (no more contorting to get that foot up there). It's easy to install, and no tools are needed, but there's an installation video at www. footflush.com, if you need an extra visual aid.
Each plastic Foot Flush is designed to support nearly 1 million flushes, enough flushing for a family of five for 10 years, according to the company.
Foot Flush costs $29.95 and is available by phone at 1-866-237-2882 and online at www. footflush.com.
