Toilet in 2022 Broadway EL Empty Toilet in 2022 Broadway EL

Post by Lavender1 Mon Dec 02, 2024 3:20 pm

Just took delivery of 2022 Broadway EL.  Hate bathroom already😡.  Lighting awful but worse is the toilet.  Sooo high my feet don’t even touch the floor.  Why on earth not a standard toilet fitted?  Are they all like this?
Another gripe is the unsuitable place for tv.  On a narrow top,  by door and at end of where I sleep.  Accident waiting to happen - well it already has been knocked of its perch once but luckily didn’t break and this is the first time away!
Has anyone had it moved to side of fridge on a wall mount?

Yes I agree ref the TV position but maybe its a cheap option to put it there, and TV takes up a whole cupboard when stowed for travel below.

I had my local Approved Workshop fit a bracket on fridge wall, not easy as fridge has to come out and as wood is so thin and fridge so tight a reinforcing plate made. But a much better place. 
Dont know why A S do not do it that way in manufacture as it would be easy to do and not have to run in ariel wires etc across van, the ariel is in cupboard over fridge.

They provide one socket so you  can only run one of kettle or toaster or TV or charger anyway.

Another feature I think daft is the popup double socket and USB by sink worktop which is about 1 ft square and no room for kettle and or Toaster anyway and its usually obscured by washed up crockery etc. And wet.

Being an electrician I have made an extension lead plugged in under sink to retracted said pop up and double socket up to the over cab, great for chargers etc.   

And as with most other AS models the hinged flap at Hab door has two hinges that keep falling apart.

Otherwise i quite like the Van!

Perhaps the dreadful toilet was put in for the previous owner who might have been disabled?  I will have to ask AS and see if it could be changed.

You appear to have Auto-Sleepers' swing wall bathroom which many of us have and like.  If you post a photo of your toilet it will become apparent if it is different.  The two ceiling lights are self-dimming.  It's possible yours are dimmed.  Press and hold down their buttons to see if they slowly become brighter.  Mine are fine.

The photo looks the same as mine except the colour of your lower tray is grey whereas mine is white.  I am tall so have no problem with dangling feet.  But I understand that shorter folk can have this problem.  I don't think this problem is unique to Auto-Sleeper vans.  I have in the past watched Bob Earnshaw's Youtube channel when he often reviews vans with his wife Jenny who is short.  She often complains that the toilets are too high for her.

It looks to me s if the height issue may not be with the toilet itself but with the high moulded plinth on which AS have mounted it.
