hello all, My lovely bride and I are thinking of purchasing a 179. I'm concerned with the small size of the bathroom and the large size of myself!! I'm 6'2" and roughly 300lbs, built like a football player I've been told.
for folks my size, what's your experience using the toilet for "reading"? |

We are similarly sized. The first few times I left the door ajar. Now it is no problem for either showers or reading. While I like the size of our bath at home better for camping it is great. I got used to it.

I don't think the Pod bathroom is condusive to a reading scenario. I'm of a plumber stature, I have no issue using it, showering in there, etc. I can't imagine getting comfy on that seat though for any longer than required. ------------- https://calendar.google.com/calendar?cid=cnBvZC5zcG90dGVyQGdtYWlsLmNvbQ - RPod Rallies https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1W1foQXGtrjf8aYly1uh0b-bHPfI&hl=en_US - RPod Owner Map |

I like to poop in private. We basically have a no pooping in the trailer rule. Can't understand the opening above the door, I would want the odors to not drift... I have not showered in there. Not quite as big, but to me, it is just a tad too small. I would gladly give up 6" in both directions for a little more room. ------------- 2012 181G |

Turning on the fan mostly takes care of the odor issue. Just don't pack pork-n-beans for dinner like my wife used to do, until we all told her to STOP PLEASE! ------------- Doug ~ '10 171 (2009-2015) ~ 2008 Salem ~ http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1723 - Pod instruction manual

The Pod bathroom is a little small. I'm not the biggest guy--a little rotund and a lot clumsy. Our Pod's shower wand did not have an on/off control. I replaced it with one that did, and wrapped the hot/cold knobs with a velcro strap. I did this after twice bumping the knobs and taking a shower with my clothes on! ------------- '10 RP 175-Replaced by 2014 Kodiak 173 QBSL '12 Toyota Tundra '05 Sportster (half a Harley) Retired-We're on Beach Time! |
