    After seeing the $1700 price tag, I decided to build my own. Great ideal, but crazy expensive for what it is.

    Murphy shower, i have seen it before. Nice very nice. I saw a murphy shower with 7 inches of depth and 5 feet, five, of length as per the wife request....exMicrosoft employee.
    My prefer design, an inflatable tray with inflatable curtains , factory oem, comes down from the ceiling. Connectors for water in and out, and a bildge pumpo for recicling water...we might have to wait 10 years for this oem product...

    Hi Shaun
    Great video. I’m weighing up between a folding or fixed shower in a 144. The only thing that puts me off the folding, is folding away a wet shower curtain. Concerned it will encourage mould/damp smell. Have you found this to be an issue?

    • @shaunwilkens
      @shaunwilkens  8 місяців тому +3

      I find it’s a good idea to let it hang dry before folding it up. If that’s not an option then I would maybe use a towel to wipe it down before putting the curtain away

  • @seantyler7140

    Shaun, I have been waiting for VanLifeTech's Vertical Bath (aka Recirculating Shower). It may be a while before it ships. I love the fold-away nature of the Tetranvan Folding Shower... How is it?

    • @shaunwilkens
      @shaunwilkens  9 місяців тому

      The shower is awesome! Hands down the best option for a van in my opinion. The second best would be a floor pan and drop down curtain.

    Do you find it spacious enough inside? Like is the curtain constantly sticking to your body when you use it?

    • @shaunwilkens
      @shaunwilkens  9 місяців тому +1

      It’s fairly spacious inside since the curtain is bigger than the base of the shower. Since the base has magnets it also helps the walls to stay tight and not blow around so much.

      Magnetic hooks on outside of your van - hang shower curtain in the sun. Not so great in PNW unless if you have radiant floor heat. Wondering if it comes in other options to black?

    No one ever seems to cover the tech specs.
    Height it raises form the floor:
    Weight Limits?
    Weight of the Unit?
    What is the weight load allowed on the hinge?
    Sure there were more

    • @fernwehchronicles193
      @fernwehchronicles193 7 місяців тому

      The weight limit is up to 250 pounds (probably can hold more) and dimensions of the nested portion of the shower are 21.75” wide by 30.75” tall. The depth is 3.5” but an additional 3.5” behind the back needs to be kept clear for plumbing lines and shower head/hose storage. The dimensions of the outer flange are 23.25” wide by 32.5” tall.
      Also, they do offer a generous military discount and there is a new 2.1 version out.
      I hope this helps.
