Hi Folks

We have a Unicorn Barcelona and the is l personally think a bad design,and that is the bathroom tap. The spout will not move from side to side so as the subject title implies l keep banging my head on the tap. Today l have replaced the tap with a swivel spout 100% better.

Have any of you folks think the are any design faults that could be better in your van?

Just trying to envisage this, but assume the spout was in the way when head close to sink.
In a similar vane I found the bathroom tap in my Bailey (which did swivel) had too long a neck and invariably water would splutter and splash out of the sink. I replaced with a much neater short-neck monoblock mixer and this has improved use of the basin no end.

Hi gazza when our van went in for its first service few weeks back we ask service dept to replace the tap of course we would pay the extra. They said that no other tap would fit --my a**e. Took the diameter measurment of the hole in sink bought a tap and fitted it within the hour including resealing the sink.

Why is the not a overflow on the kitchen and washroom sinks?
