- Lift call buttons should not be obstructed
- High counter tops are unfriendly to children and the wheelchair bound
- Heavy push and pull doors are unfriendly to the infirm, wheelchair users and families with children
- Depth of vanity top does not allow parents to use the diaper change facility in an ergonomically comfortable position
- Close proximity of child fitting obstructs the movement of wheelchairs
- Height of the mirror above the lowered wash basin could have been mounted lower
- LCD panels and control buttons should be mounted at a height comfortable for use by wheelchair users and the average user
