Piffle, without doubt the best accessory we have purchased is a set of Silverscreens, absolutely no need for a window vac, as condensation is a thing of the past. To complete the deal they keep your van cool in high temperatures as well.

I love an accessory, I have too many. One of my favourites has to be the raskelf memory foam topper.

But if I had to clear out everything and keep just one accessory/gadget then it would be my Northstar lantern.There is just something magical about drinking a beer with friends under its bright light and gentle hiss

Amazon product ASIN B0030BGA50

You need one of these Jim ,to go with the Coleman. I Just restored it, 1948 Vapalux/Bialaddin 300x Made in Halifax

attempt differentiate between 'essentials' (solar/aircon/growler/tracker/levelers) and 'accessories'. These make us feel we are not compromising.

I think it’s got to be a 10 litre watering can £5 @ B and Q. No I have changed my mind it’s joining Motorhome fun as it’s so very informative friendly mostly :) And a good place to be with so many like minded people who make it what it is .
10 litre plastic 'jerry' can. much easier to store than a 'watering' can.

Yes I have them as well but not good for filling tank need to use a funnel on this van :)
We do too but I found a short plastic pipe that fixes over one the end of the red pouring gizmo that came with the jerry can and all sorted - works for us anyhow.
An additional pipe to extend this pourer.

+1 for the Bialetti though ours (around 7 years old now and a daily driver) is a 6 cup... makes 3 mugs of great coffee when topped up with boiling H2O
I’ll have to stop reading “fun” late at night ?. Bialetti sounded like a great idea and had great reviews so dammit, I just had to get one in time for is going away .....?. Flippin Amazon ☕️ ?

We always used these until we ran out whilst away and found those very cheap and thin 2 ply serviettes which are available everywhere abroad and cheap shops here. They are brilliant as they line the bowl and don’t clog up the cassette. Considerably cheaper and easier to buy too.

Jerrycan with pouring spout: Amazon product ASIN B0030Y0GZ2
Ditto the Bialetti - we got the stainless steel 6 cup which does two British mugs when “lengthened” with help of the kettle: Amazon product ASIN B01N6PKY5Y
Kettle from Ikea - has folding handle. https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/metallisk-kettle-stainless-steel-40360222/

Our table - legs individually adjustable so stable on uneven ground, and we can have it low or high as needed. Amazon product ASIN B00TXDTVSM
Cup holders - I had arm chair trays made for the cushions each side of our bed, and these sit on them and hold our porcelaine mugs (Denby as the van is called Denby :) Amazon product ASIN B07BJ879XB
OXO good grips containers for tea and coffee - lid sucks down so keeps everything fresh and no spills. Amazon product ASIN B000UI0KA2

Do you line the toilet bowl at home?

We don't and use a toilet brush, so same in the MH.

10ltr watering can, rather that rectangle purely due to the spout making it easier to put the water into the MH's water tank.
