I like that look. I wish we had our done the same. Our tiny sink never gets used, too much of a bother.

We asked that the sink be deleted. They do install the shower valve in it's place. The sink is a horrible idea in such a small space.

Although we don't use ours, many do and like them. I would not say it is a horrible idea, just not suited to all.

I like the sink. Didn't think I would, but I do. When I take my shower, I put the shower head in the sink, rather than hang it on the wall.

I agree, the bathroom sink allows one to finish their business inside the bathroom, not bring it out of the bath into the kitchen area......

We use the toilet for disposal, nothing gets brought out. [emoji6]

I deleted my sink, also the toilet roll holder.

We like our sink for the same reasons as others have pointed out. We really like the sink for navy showers.

Enjoy,

Perry

We concur, Donna. We have found it to be a handy place not only for the shower head but shampoo bottles, etc.

We have also discovered that it helps to conserve water in the grey tank when taking military showers via the ' John in Santa Cruz Shower Method': Put a little water in the sink, lather a washcloth with soap and start to wash. Use shower head as needed and finish with a final rinse down. John, if you are reading this, thank you for this tip! Conserving water in our grey tank is a priority right now.

I also notice that I tend to grab the sink, in the middle of the dark night for balance, when I'm half asleep so I also see it as a grab bar...bonus!

The 21C has a larger bath so I do understand the desire to delete it in the other models with smaller baths, but we have plenty of room for it and find it quite useful. So nice we can all personalize with Escape - it's all in the little things! -Bea

So going beyond sink "delete" which is clearly a personal choice.
Has anyone removed the existing sink after getting their rig?
And if so, problems encountered and resolutions would be appreciated.
Photos even better.
