New from German-based company Henkel Wasch-und Reinigungsmittel GmbH comes this cool little toilet bowl cleaner and deodorizer in the shape of a wind surfer.
It hangs onto the rim of the toilet and surfs the porcelain waters keeping it clean and odor free. The cleaning agent is held inside the surfer, while the deodorant is inside the sail.
The surfer was designed by the famed Italian design firm, Alessi. Henkel made no secret of that on its packaging.
It comes in both lemon and grapefruit varieties.

I got a similar item for Christmas by the same company called "Mr. Suicide" which is a dead guy with little'x's for eyes that floats from the bath stop. You can see it here: http://www.retromodern.com/item_detail.asp?1760.
So funny: Here in Austria, we have the same thing and it is not mentioned in the article, but this thing is designed by Alessi. Since we have a lot of different toilet-systems in Europe, it can happen, if you have the "wrong" one, that the top of the "sail" stings in your butt...
As both a marketing bod, and an expat in Germany ... this latest Henkel trash invention is typical German too-muchness.
And the Alessi branding - typical. If it has a label on it the Germans will buy anything.
Be interesting to see if this one works. The advtg is crap, but that's no great surpise either!
