Does anyone use their shower area as a wardrobe?

[Spade]

Hi
Looking for suggestions for a wardrobe rail that we could fit in the seperate shower, in a camper that we are currently looking at.
Maybe someone has an unusual set up that I haven't thought of.
Thanks

i didnt realise our spare cupboard/wardrobe was a shower .....

 

[Spade]

As far as my missus is concerned,a full length wardrobe is a deal breaker.
The camper in question has a small wardrobe under one of the twin singles at the back so not long enough.

 

[Cush]

We hang the occasional bits and wet coats in there, also stores laundry bags but i would be reluctant to bear too much weight on the moulded plastic that mine is.

Yes, we use an extending shower curtain rail from Dunelm, stays up most of time as its a curved surface.

The autotrail imala i had, had a removable rail already fitted for this purpose. I used to dry clothes in there all the time

 

[Brains]

Only for drying wet jackets.
And only when it's not in use as a shower.

We stay on as many CL's as Campsites, so it gets a fair amount of use.
I check the quality of the campsite showers before I use them, and decide which is best/most convenient each time.

Take a shower with all your clothes on and it becomes a laundry too

A lot of Motorhomers and caravanners use showers as wardrobes

It drives me mad!!! The wardrobe (aka shower) takes five mins to empty of dresses, coats and associated paraphernalia which seems to never get worn!

The only upside is, apparently I don’t place the ‘paraphernalia’ carefully enough on the bed or transfer said ‘paraphernalia’ back when the wardrobe is sufficiently dry! This means it’s a pink job to load and unload, especially when I want to use the wardrobe to original design specification!

Mop and bucket .
Cool box with veggies.
Wet swimming costume hanging from the shower head!

Problem is all the clothes get wet.

Our shower/wet room is also an aviary for Bod. With mirror shelf, ladder perch then window perches and seed and water pots
I made a fan for the window too if it gets hot for her

Our Frankia shower has a built in clothes rail pain in the arse

i should have added that i installed an external shower point 18 months ago, its actually been quite useful for a few reasons ....

Are they the ones that never wash? dirty bugxxxx
I suspect this is a polarising question

The shower is for showering and would be a PITA having to remove everything each day to be able to shower. Unless of course you are 'the unclean'

It's the broom/hoover cuboard in mine.

Using the shower as a wardrobe must be the modern version of keeping coal in the bath.

We had the same in our Frankia but used the big garage as a hanging wardrobe

Our Hymer housed the fruit basket as it was cooler than rest of van also walking shoes/sandals-I made a liner to protect the shower floor & wet coats got hung on the bi-fold door whilst dripping!
Yes it was a pain to remove everything to use the shower but we had it down to a fine art.
Frank is different no need to clog up the shower as we have a garage now and loads of lockers.

You built a bar in the garage? Legend!

We have a removable rail on our cramped AT Scout shower. It is showing signs of distress at either end, as the railointing bracket area is quite small. On my list is to shorten the rail by 6mm and stick larger pads of 3mm perspex at either end to spread the load. Bit of CT1 adhesive to stick it to shower walls
We keep our springy twisty net fold away laundry basket in there unless we want to use it as a shower, like tonight.

Good man

 

[gus-lopez]

don't go anywhere clothes that are needed to hang up are worn.Nor anywhere it rains.

 

[Pausim]

I would rather be clean than well dressed, anyway our clothes hang nicely in the wardrobe under the bed.

Now why didn’t we think of that I kept my microwave in that locker but drinks cabinet is a much better idea.

I rarely hang stuff up, mostly rolled up in travel cubes. John has the majority of the wardrobe, and rarely wears anything hung up there. Do hang my winter coat up. Also have a ready made hanging rail in the shower, used to dry wet clothes/coats.
