Toilet risers
Due to a back injury, I find I need extra height for my toilet in order to stand up from it. I don't want to buy another commode as this condition should resolve so in the meantime I would purchase a seat riser. Have any of you bought one that fits well with the AquaMagic toilets? I bought one by AquaSense but the part that funnels into the bowl is an inch too wide. There is absolutely no way in this bathroom to attach a useful grab bar as the wall is way too close to me. The riser that fits is my only way. I am presently camping in my 1995 Sunline 1950..ty in advance for your suggestions! Janalee646Views0likes2CommentsRe: towing
Thanks guys for all responses..bars are out because physically unable to lift/carry them...no strength or grip in my hands/arms.Also my age,77, is a big factor. I may have to be content to have my brother tow me somewhere local and then sit there..:-( he tows it with his '02 Dakota no problem,no bars.. I have 35 years of travel memories, 14 TT and 6 mohos, and hate to give up--I will take your suggestions and give it more thought..Ty again..Janalee438Views0likes0Commentstowing
Been towing various combinations for 35 years,but I now have rheumatoid arthritis and can't lift the distributing bars. Can anyone suggest a vehicle that can handle my 20' TT,dry wt 3400#,with 425# of that being tongue weight ( that is accounting for the propane and battery) without using wt dist bars..I would like an SUV type vehicle not a pickup as a truck is too difficult for me to get in and out..Not looking for something new, just serviceable.My husband has passed and I am not ready to give up camping!.Ty in advance for your help..Janalee2.1KViews0likes16Commentstv mount suggestions please....
I want to mount a 19" lcd tv under a dinette cabinet in my Coachmen C (can´t use wall mount!) and it will be a corner install. Tv only weighs 5#...looking for a lt weight,low profile,inexpensive mount..hopefully one that has a disconnect. I will have to reinforce the floor of the cabinet,but not a problem..just need to find a mount that doesnt seem to weigh more than the tv itself!! Janalee1.2KViews0likes3CommentsRe: Extra entry step
You may want to check out a two step with a different size drop..had to install one on a previous rv. Right now I have two plastic 2liter soda bottle cases just ziptied side by side,turned upside down, with a piece of grass carpet wrapped around it. Gives me a sturdy, tip proof, wide platform that is 6" high. Very lightweight.569Views0likes0CommentsRe: Planning on Using the Cab Overhead Bed? We cannot use it!
First I have to mention I am 74 with spine problems, and DH is 83 with advanced dementia. After 28 yrs. of rving with 19 different types campers,I realized hitching and towing was now out of the question--I recently bought a '98 Coachmen Catalina Sport C with a very different floorplan. It is a 240WB,25' total,and actually has a separate bedroom w double bed against rear wall,tons of cabinets,bathroom and shower separate,dinette and swivel chair.Using the cabover bunk for sleeping was not in my plan. I have DH in the rear bedroom,(the hallway has a door) and I leave the dinette down dressed as a daybed/lounge.We each have plenty of sleeping area!We use a nice folding table between my "bed" and the chair when eating inside and just slide it forward between the front captain chairs when not in use.I keep my clothes in a basket under the dinette or on the bunk.I really searched hard for this unit and it is absolutely worth the search! No way will I risk a broken leg or hip on that bunk! By the way,to simplify,I don't use sheets on my "bed"--took the advice of another and I sleep on top of a colorful quilt with a blanket I just roll up and stow away,so if we need the dinette for company it is an easy setup. P.S.Our spoiled cat sleeps wherever she chooses! Hope this helps..Janalee747Views0likes0Comments
