The line was a dozen deep to get into the shower at Kohler's exhibit booth Tuesday at the NAHB International Builders' Show in Las Vegas.
Nobody was smelling particularly stale. It was only the first day of the world's largest home-building trade show that runs through Thursday at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
They wanted to experience the Moxie showerhead and wireless speaker that plays up to seven hours of music, news and programs through Bluetooth technology. And they had a chance to win the $199 product that just came out in December in a scratch-off game.
The speaker magnetically snaps in and out of the showerhead, which has 60 angled nozzles and a silicone sprayface that makes it easy to wipe away mineral buildup.
"I take my shower and I take it out with me to go get my coffee," said Leslie Bronson, product specialist for Kohler. "It's great for remodels. You can do it yourself. You don't need a plumber."
It's exactly the kind of thing Lisa and Chip Iuliano of ABT Custom Homes in Suffolk, Va., were looking for at the show. They usually go to IBS in Orlando, Fla., but hadn't been in three years.
"We're just going to educational seminars and looking at new products," Chip Iuliano said. "Vegas has a little more to offer than Orlando."
From tools to toilets, the IBS exhibit floor is filled with the latest innovations in home-building materials and products that make homes comfortable, energy efficient and cutting-edge in design.
Sam Dotson of Custom Service Hardware in Cedarburg, Wis., was showing a $1,480 kitchen cabinetry remodel with solid oak doors and drawer fronts, soft-close undermount drawer slides and dovetailed wood drawer boxes.
