Hello. I'm working on an article about whether most RV owners use their bathrooms or not. If you do, feel free to chime in. If you don't why not and what do you use it for instead? Please give examples of what you do use it for. Thank you!Edit: the post is for the Do It Yourself RV website

We use almost everything, BUT my wife says "No Poopie".

Where will this article be published?

We use everything in our camper. That's what we got it for.If I'm the one dumping the tanks ... by golly! I'm going to use them too!But, we also use the shower to hold the cat in. We put a litter box in the shower, shut the glass door, and when he gets his round of car sickness, will barf in the cat litter. If we let him out of the shower, he barf's in some very unwanted places. If he's in the car, it's all over us! After 20 minutes of driving, we can bring him in the truck with us after he's all vomited and pooped out (literally).We use our shower to hang wet clothes and towels.We use our bathroom for ... well ... taking a shower, brushing our teeth, and combing our hair.We use our bathroom ... well... for the obvious ... the Royal Throne!We use our bathroom to set up a separate space heater, as it's position is just right for blowing the heat into the bedroom area (in cold weather).We use the cabinet under the sink to store our cleaning (chemicals) and tank deodorizers (which we haven't used in years).We use our bathroom to run the exhaust fan, as it's the only vent in the ceiling with a fan, to help circulate humidity and moisture condensation on the windows and such.Does this help?

Do you use your bathroom? If not, what do you use it for?

Of course I use it for all the purposes it was designed for.

we use the toilet for what it's made for. and the bathroom sink the same way.
the shower gets used for showers, but in between, we keep the dirty clothes hamper in it.
the sink floor area is also the dining hall for the dog.

we use ours for #1 only and the pit toilet for #2.we hang wet clothes and towels in there but we shower with the outside shower and a fold a privy.it's just easier and there's more room,plus we don't have to dry the shower.i only have to dump the cassette every 5 days.we never camp in conventional campgrounds so half the time i whizz behind a tree anyway.

Our Trailer is like our second home. We use the bathroom just as if we were at home. Why not ?

It's funny that people looking at houses consider the number of bathrooms as a plus (4BR 4-1/2 bath - Oh Boy!), but won't use a toilet in an RV. Pooping in the woods was ok when I was tent camping 50 years ago.

We use both the RV, and the bathhouse, it just depends. With a family of 4 our grey tank for the shower fills quickly, so if we don't have sewer hookups, and we are going to be there more than a couple of days, we use the bathhouse showers.

If we have full hookup, we still mix it up, If we are going somewhere we will split up and some go to the bathhouse, and some in the camper so we can get in and out quicker. If it's cold or raining, we tend to shower in the camper.

We all tend to poop in the bath house. Our bathroom is right in front of the table, and in the middle of the living area. We don't like to stink up, or make vile noises right in the middle of things. :)

Quite new so this question shocked me...why would you not use facilities that you have at your disposal?

Just doesn't make sense to me at all
