Need help with adding a sink to 19.5 BH travel trailer

Hi. I'm in need of some help...Had our first trip with our new Forest River Wildwood x-lite 19.5 BH trailer. For some reason I didn't think much about not having a sink in the bathroom when buying the trailer. After watching everyone wash their faces, brush their teeth and spit flying everywhere and into the kitchen sink over and over I'm desperate for some way to install a sink in the bathroom.

I'm thinking about buying a stand alone stylist sink with a drain hose and stand it freestyle in the tub. They can use the shower handle to add water to the sink and it will drain into the tub. The bathroom has a wall to wall tub with shower on the left side and a flush toilet center. Very small. Maybe a swingout arm that nestles to the shower head wall side? Husband is not impressed with my solutions

Does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks in advance.

  • Thanks! I have been looking into the caravan fold down sinks...mostly in Europe. I have an email in to one company to see if they would ship to US...most of them do not.
  • How about using a small tub / tote and having everyone brush their teeth outside ?

    Or, using a ice cream pail for fresh water in the bathroom and having them brush their teeth in the bathroom while standing in the shower?
  • From a loooong time lurker, I am forced out of the woodwork to offer this, google "fold down sinks for caravans". I think you will find something there that would work.
  • thank you both so much!!!! I can't wait to share some good suggestions with the husband...he's skeptical of my fixes.

    Thanks!!!

    wall mount where it fits and run a line to show drain then its not in the shower. can tap in to water above the toilet fill.
  • I would talk to Forest River, see if you can somehow install the sink from the 230BHXL. It looks like the same bathroom size.
