Shower

I have a 2018 Thor 24FE. The shower kinda sucks. I am 6' tall and my head sticks in the dome above the shower. Would have been nice if they centered that over the shower for us tall people. The shower head feels like needles and is way too low. I have a sliding door and water leaks out the bottom of it. I also have no where in the shower to hang a washcloth and no way to keep soap and shampoo in the shower when traveling.

Any ideas of upgrade people have done for any of these, or any other shower upgrades?

Just for those that want to gripe at me for complaining, this shower is 1000% better than the one in my last RV. These are just things I noticed that would make the shower even better. Thanks.

Post 293 in my signature thread.
I'm considerably taller and this fixed the shower curtain and shower head thing.

Isn't your shower head on a bit of flexible hose?
We stuck a heavy duty curtain rod in ours along the back wall, and hang all sorts or stuff from it.
(Our shower is just 24"x32")

Command shower storage caddie

We use a Command shower storage caddie that is made for use in the shower so the command strips are waterproof. We stick on the glass sidewall and it has held all our shower stuff for 5 years as we rock and rolled across the US several times.
We also added a dryer rack that mounts on the wall and telescopes outwards in our shower so bathing suits etc could drip while they dry.

The Tuscany has a very large shower so down the road if it works look at models with residential sized showers
Standard in the build was this shower head which you would like as well
Available at Lowes, or most anywhere on the web

That looks like an Oxygenics shower head.
If you like the option of different spray patterns: take a look at the Fury.

We actually changed to a larger Oxygenics that had more choices and a longer hose to wash the puppy, the hand flow valve is great to keep from wasting water on any you choose

Brother has the Fury and they like it

Going from the straight flow to the pulsating does make a difference

I am 6'5" and am thankful at least they thought of the skylight to stick my head up into. But I am agreement that they could have centered it. Love my 2020 elite 24HE

I know the feeling ...

Same problem here. Corner shower, 6'5 tall, head almost hits the top of the dome. Found this a few months ago and it really helped. I placed the suction as high as I could and the neck of this extends up and in to the dome where I can put my shower handle. Not "perfect" but is 90% better.

Can't send an actual photo - our rig is in the shop.
