Really? Because I have 15 people who burned to death because it isn't. That's not where people look for door handles. It's not marked. It doesn't stand out in any way. It's obvious only if you already know it's there. Otherwise it's a death trap. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world -1 points 8 months ago* (1 child) I agree and yet someone downvoted many of my comments in this thread. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Typhoon@lemmy.ca 3 points 8 months ago (1 child) I only see 1 of your comments with a downvote.

It blend in with the window buttons and looks like it is just a plastic panel. A design flourish or convenience, not a functional lever. permalink fedilink source parent [–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago* Yeah...
