Many cars today have the ability to "remember" seat preferences for multiple drivers. Now that same kind of customization can be used to avoid playing the guessing game with your shower's temperature controls.

This shower and control panel from Kohler lets users develop their own shower preferences and save custom profiles. With a panel outside the shower, one can control the temperature and which of the system's five showerheads (one overhead, one free-moving handheld and three lateral, wall-mounted) are used. A second panel is located on the inside of the shower for instant customization. Want one? Count on paying over $500 for one of these hot gizmos.

The shower is enclosed with streak-resistant, phase-change glass for instant privacy and less scrubbing.

Just outside the shower, a heated glass and metal rack using EGP Thermique HOT Glass keeps towels warm.
