Step Up Toilet

I'm new to this site and I've looked around and haven't seen much on toilets here or I didn’t look very well or maybe it’s because not many have the problem I have w/ our RV Toilet. Not so much a problem as much as it is an inconvenience for me. And I'm probably the only one it inconveniences in my family because I'm the shortest and the only gal.:o

I have a 2007 Majestic 28A by Four Winds, and the toilet is a step up or a step above floor level, not sure how to describe and I don't know how to post pictures on here. The toilet is a step higher than the floor level and if you try to step up to use the toilet there's not enough floor space for your feet to do so. Since I'm the only one complaining about it and before I ask the hubby to look and see what's under it or to see if there is anything that can be done to remove the step and put in a regular size RV toilet, I wanted to ask for some input/advice. Does anyone else have this in their RV, if so did you change anything about it, and how did you do it? :h :@

    My friends used to have a motorhome (not a Majestic) with the same issue. They did what Old-Biscuit suggested...built a step in front of the toilet, same height as the pedestal, basically just extending the pedestal. But they had a separate toilet room. If the layout I found online is correct, your toilet is in a room with your sink. So maybe a removable step, like an aerobic exercise step. Or just build a lightweight wooden one, attach a piece of carpet to the top of it.
    That is exactly what I did but it blocks the door under the sink but it works.

  • Oh wow, I was really hoping to be able to do something about it. Thanks Old-Biscuit :)
  • Old Biscuit Is right,most likely it has something under it.

    Being it is a Former Rental there may someone on This Thread that may be of help with your problem and how to remedy it,there are a lot of members there that have the Majestic 28A.:B
  • The 'pedestal'/'box' that toilet sits on is a 'raceway' area for furnace ducting, water line etc

    Toilet is on that pedestal/box for a reason..........clearance issues

    Sounds like you need a 'step up' in front of toilet
