Need Help! 179 or 180

IMHO with respect to all Pod models, none are perfect but all are great. 

First off, thanks everyone, I cannot believe all the responses. My only concern is that John was not sure IF we use the bathroom. Won't even touch the HOW we use it.......😜

Next, I hate to say it but I am the one who probably likes the idea of the nicer toilet/shower more than my wife. FYI-neither height or width is an issue.

At this point, leaning slightly to the 180.

So keep the comments coming. I really appreciate the input.

For the two of us, the dry bath was the clincher. Love the galley and closet in the 179, but the bathroom space won over the galley space and bigger dinette. Plus the storage in bathroom for chemicals, toilet paper, etc is a huge feature. Do wish a window was in there though. So the 180 tipped the scale albeit not by much, but enough.

Originally posted by NickLPod We (the boss & I) had the same discussion & bought the 180 over the 179 this summer. The 180 dry bathroom just beat the nice wide kitchen counter space in the 180. We do use the bathroom features: toilet at night, the shower to wash feet & ankles, and as a change room. (This latter is important for my wife, who believes I should not change in full view of others). Storage for short trips is fine and we eat at the dinette or outside in the dome when possible. As suggested & implemented by many others in this forum (cool!), I made a Costco tray into a cover for the 2 burners to extend cutting board space (is also the location for the drying rack after washing up).

We added a spring-tension shower rod and a set of curtains by the bed. If need be, we can move those. If the bathroom door is open, it also acts as a visual block for the other end of the R-Pod so if the dinette window cover is closed, one has a significant amount of space in which to change that is not visible to someone at the kitchen end.

We use our bathroom in our 179 at night also and have showered in there, not just washed our feet and ankles.

In the end, each of us will choose the one he/she feels is the right one for him/her. In this case, the rule, "If mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy!" applies.
