Stuff for the B

I got a bunch of stuff for my new B that I think you might find handy (all of which I got on Amazon):

Collapsible stuff - you can get most anything in a collapsible form these days. They are made out of silicone.

Before:

After:

Stored:


I also got a towel bar, knife holder and bag storage:



Paper towel holder, magnetic spice rack and soap dispenser:


Hanging clothes hamper:


And stuff for the bath - toilet paper holder, magnetic brush, suction cup towel bar and a soap dispenser:

    The shower in the travato is amazing.. I am 5'6" so i don't need much room, but it is the roomiest shower i've had and this is my third RV (92 falcon clf, 07 augusta sport and now this). My shakedown trip was a 3 day weekend and i took to showers and used all the other "facilities" and came home with over a third tank of fresh water

    Love the spice rack.. Is the soap dispenser in the kitchen held on by suction? I'd hate to mess up the nice new paneling.
    No problem opening the top of the sink?..


    It came with 3m tape already stuck to the back of it. Same with the one on the bathroom. You could pry it off if needed I suppose.

    I place it so the sink lid clears.

    Some clever ideas there. This spice rack, however, being placed over the range top might expose the herbs and spices to too much heat and moisture. JMHO. All of these items look nice. I could certainly use a towel bar like that. Thank you for sharing these ideas. :)


    That's the neat thing about being magnetic or stuff with suction cups - you can move it if you like another location better. The thing that is bothering me about the spice rack is I can't see the labels with it like this - so I may have to make some to stick on the sides. If it doesn't work out above the range, I might move it to the metal surround around the microwave. If all else fails, there's always my trusty 3M double side tape!

    I also got a new grill (Grill 2 Go) and folding table. Here is a pic of my new "minimum setup" stored in the back. This is the least I'll carry on any given trip.

    Just search on "collapsable" or "silicone" and you'll get a bunch of choices on containers, bowls, basins, etc.

    I have a collapsible 2 gallon bucket coming that should be a nice thing to carry in my van.

    The shower works great. Since there is nothing needing to be protected from the water, I took out the shower curtain and just close the aluminum door. I do want to find some kind of non-slip mat for the floor of the shower though.

    You are a clever chap. Never thought about collapsable containers. I guess I search under "collapsable containers". Your rv looks really nice and fitted out neatly. How is the shower working. They ALL take getting used to in B's.
