That bathroom is a nightmare.

From seeing other conversions, having a toilet in the shower is a common solution. Simple fact of the matter is: there has to be compromise.

My mom’s van has the toilet in the shower and it’s never been a big deal. I like the little toilet closet in this build as it let them reduce the overall footprint of the shower. Not a big fan of it being under the fridge though.

It’s not the toilet being in the shower that bothers me. I’m genuinely curious: in your mom’s van, can people take a dump with the door closed?

Yup. There's a retractable door on the shower that you can shut. It's typically just my mom and her dog, though, so I doubt she shuts the door that frequently.

Yeah, I’m cool with that. I just would have loathed having to poop with my legs sticking out the door in a small communal space with my family growing up, so the BR in this video makes me uncomfortable. I had bad digestive issues growing up. I need a separate closable room with a fan.

Correct, don’t forget it.
