I cannot say I have a big problem with urinal design, but I do take significant issue with standard installation practices. I am an average height dude, yet many urinals seem to be installed as if the intended audience are all basketball players. Far too high such that I can imagine a decent chunk of users might have to aim up and or stand on their toes.

I was expecting you to say the opposite thing! In North Carolina they are so low that the stream angle ends up much steeper than intended, like trying to use a boy's urinal. I'm tall, but still fit normally in cars etc. There should really be more variation in mounting height, or bring back those tall ones that work universally. I guess it's cheaper to make them small but mounting the flush handle below penis height is asking for trouble.

		That’s the real solution -bring back full height urinals.

I just don't understand why there is no middle option. Either on the ground for a 6 year old or set up for a 2m+ man.

		This is perplexing because I've been all over the country, coast to coast and north to south and to Canada, and never encountered this despite being shorter than the person you're responding to (who is actually well above-average height..)

How tall are you and where do you live? I'm dead-on average US male height (5'9") and I've never experienced this.

		5”11. Not everywhere, but it has happened enough that I have noted my annoyance.
