 Have just removed a cracked shower tray from the toilet compartment in our Swift Charisma 550 2003 model. The problem is the support under the tray or lack of it which allows it to flex too much when standing on it. Have now replaced the tray with a fibreglass copy. This was made using the original has a mould. The chap who did the job has provided trays for a number of caravanners here and abroad. Whilst it was not cheap at £185  this is a far more rugged piece of kit than the original.

This post has run for about six years now.Why oh why dont caravan manufactures read these kind of sites. Then they might just realise that we dont mind the little bit of extra weight, and have a shower tray that the average person can stand in without the fear of it collapsing or cracking. For gods sake make it out of fibreglass.........

stands to reason the trays are poorly produced and poorly fitted.as said this has gone on for more than 6 years.just possible they are replacing a cracked tray with another inferior tray.my friend had a swift and all the shower unit required replacing including the tray.

the only silly question is the one you do not ask.
