[@marym9618]

Instead of a squeegee, just keep a smaller shammy style cloth for wiping down the bath. It can get all those corners that the squeegee can’t

[@IreneIronTravels]

That would work too! 😀

[@monacaensam9465]

Look into flax linen towels. Small form factor, wears like iron, gets better with age, naturally anti mildew, super absorbing, dries quickly. Not Cheap, but worth every penny!!

[@randypfannenstiel7057]

Thanks for being honest, open, and transparent about how you deal with the poop and pee when dry camping. You gave us some good ideas. Keep going where few dare to go. You’re awesome. randy

[@IreneIronTravels]

Thanks for watching!!

[@joycem2795]

The info about the plugs and separate TP for #1 was really useful. Thanks for posting.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching Joyce! 😀

[@seabliss22]

We aren't full time but I do the same thing with the TP. That thin stuff is for the birds. Also.. I use a hand towel to dry off with then a turkish towel to wrap up in to walk to the bedroom. The turkish towel is thin and dries super fast. The hand towels makes laundry day a breeze.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Great tip o the Turkish towels! It sure does take a bit of getting used to small spaces like this!😀

[@Jamminn555]

Seriously you guys are the best. Awesome and hilariously practical video about the often-criticized but very underrated wet bath! Thank you!

[@IreneIronTravels]

Hey Benjamin, long time no talk! Hope all is well and happy new year to ya!

[@SF-ce1qn]

I love my class B wet bath. Smaller bath = less to clean. Water is HOT and pressure is great. Need nothing more. Would rather be free in my RV than at home w my 3 bathrooms.

[@allentowngal4769]

Yup. Confirms why I got my B+ w/ a full dry bath. Just couldn't deal with wet bath or tearing bed up & down & storing bedding. Love the smaller coach but ya gotta trade off something or other.

[@IreneIronTravels]

So true! Lot's of trade offs for either direction!

[@beverlyomalley6994]

What B+ do you have? That’s what I’m talking about wanting. A dry shower and maybe a Murphy bed with a couch or seating of some sort when it’s up. Not about wanting to take apart lounge area and make up a bed every night.

[@richardmchale12345]

Great topic to cover for Class B RV's. You guys look like you are enjoying yourselves...keep the videos coming!

[@IreneIronTravels]

Thanks! We are having a blast!😃

[@daviscrt]

I have I 32ft class A, but I also been looking at van builds. Forsure I would need a ban with a shower, toilet and one I can stand up. Great video. Don

[@IreneIronTravels]

Hey Don, thanks for watching! Van's are certainly fun to check out and I can see why the custom builds are so popular.

[@pattyk8594]

Your videos are incredibly helpful and informative - thank you! You are making it hard for us to decide if we want a Class C or Class B. We love the Class C outdoor/indoor storage, but you make Class B look do-able :o)

[@IreneIronTravels]

Hello! It is a tough decision for sure! I will say the main reason we "put up with" the lack of storage and space is because we really like to travel free and fast. The B is truly a easy and simple RV that allows us to go anywhere and do anything with little planning. Sure we miss the extra space when we are at a campsite, but we love to keep moving and traveling! Good luck, you can't go wrong with either as long as it makes you guys happy!

[@outlawbadge1]

Looks good, better to have a tiny bathroom than none at all. Thanks for sharing

[@billsheehy1]

Great review. Convinced me to get the 911 instead of a class B. Thanks

[@Oldsalt68]

People have been using wet baths in boats for decades, nothing wrong with them at all! Sure beats NOT having one!

[@IreneIronTravels]

So true, we are so happy to have a fully functional bathroom with us at all times! 😀

[@dennisrivers9300]

I got one It's about the induction cook top How do you find cooking on it in relation to using the propane Cause i can see a benefit to using it to conserve and extend boondocking Just dont know how it functions and how quick the temp changes/heats up the pan It would be intresting to see all the boondocking hacks you guys have come up with all in one video Maybe also include things youve tried but it didn't work out

[@IreneIronTravels]

Great topics Dennis! Chris will love doing one on induction vs propane and the boondocking hack is a great idea!😀

[@thomasgarrison3949]

Great video. Thanks for the info.

[@teresah.6696]

I have never understood why people complain so much about a wet bath. Be happy that you have it to be able to do your no.2 business and can't make it to a public gym or the weather sucks like raining hard or heavy snow. You're in a Class B so of course its going to be small.

[@RemyRAD]

Well Vince would be really happy that you are using a Sham Now! Wow! Or did I get that backwards? As he says hey Mr. cameraman. It's just a Sham towel. That licks the water right off of your body! And your dog! As every camper also needs a Sham oriented dog. When they played in the gray water and black water leaking from your tanks. And then want to jump into bed with you! And doggy smells like sewage! Yum! Such a fragrance to sleep by comfortably! LMAO! And so there are obvious disadvantages to, Class--B stealth campers. And that's called space. It's a great big place! Outside of the van! And sleeping for most guys, that are 6 feet tall. That can't really sleep,, perpendicularly. In the, width of the van. Or diagonally on a full or queen sized bed. (Full as in double because a twin is single. Go figure? What moron called a single bed a twin? And why cannot not be changed for the 21st century? Because it's just flat out, confusing that a twin is a single. And so I guess twin babies are also a single baby? Yeah no! It's a pair. And they both get separate little beds of their own! Two single baby beds for twins. Not a single bed for an adult twin. Even though that is exactly the case! And destroys the use of our English language. Into a ball of whack a doodle, confusion. Because a single bed is called a twin bed for a single person. Um… No! That does not compute! And the federal government has rules and laws. Of labeling for our products. And a Twin bed is not a double bed! And a double bed is called a full-size. Full-size of what? Men or women? Both? How does that work when one is shorter than the other? Oh right! Women get more wiggle room! So the guy can still get on top of her. With room to spare. I understand now. And precisely why girls need full sized beds. Not a twin for two people! Ugh! English-speaking we do? I speak full English not twin English. From America. Why don't we call our language, American? We don't sound like the British! They don't even spell some things the same way! Like Center, they get backwards at the end. And they drive on the wrong side of the street! We would get arrested for that! Or kill somebody? Before we get arrested. And then they get the letters mixed up in their words as a result. And who speaks, Shakespearean English? For the man that had the greatest command of the English language. And created plenty of the words himself. Then Ben Franklin moved to America. Changed the English language. Created Philadelphia and a university. Wrote his autobiography and stated. He didn't believe much in the fairytale stories of his presbyterian Bible.. And then changed the spelling of Center. And Specter. And a few others. To make more sense out of English that didn't. Only to have southern Americans turn into millions of, retards! Add a sloppy twang. And forget most of the words in the English language. To give us that Appalachian twang of, inbred,, incestuous peoples. And the total mind FUCK conspiracy theories we hear today. By southern fried peoples. With an IQ far below that of any child. With only a,, third grade education. Of how babies are made. Daddy kisses mommy and you get baby brother! Then daddy has sex with your little sister! And gives you your stupid youngest brother! Who goes on to serve in the, US government. Being all retarded from, inbreeding with daddy! And that's the way of the US's, southern fried states. All their brains are fried from Jesus and inbreeding. With the likes of Marjorie Taylor Greene. Amy Coney Island Barrett, Kari Lake and all other horrid, bigots, like them. With brain-dead Greg Abbott, murderer Dan Patrick, Canadian Ted Cruz, Jean Cornyn, Ted Paxton, Gary Cutler and other extreme lowlifes of Texas. That are not close to even being, Americans! They are enemy combatants of the United States federal Constitution. They are enemies of the United States! And Greg Abbott passes un-American laws against the LGBTQ community! Dan Patrick said he wants everybody over 65 in Texas to die! Because after retirement. You don't infuse any more money into the Texas economy. That's the most deranged,, demented and depraved thing! I've ever heard! Out of an elected official! That critter, IS NOT A HUMAN BEING! And he said he was 73 a couple of years ago and he wasn't afraid to die. I want him very much to die! And his entire lousy family. So they do not procreate and create more of him! I hope they all die! A horrible painful lingering death! For getting married to that lowlife! And providing him with more lowlife children! Hatched and programmed to hate all those who are not like themselves! And that's insane! And that's Republicunt's! And they are not human. They are cruel and inhumane, protoplasmic critters. Obviously from another planet! Yes! Scientists have stated. We don't know, how planet Earth and humans. Will know… If we have been contacted? By an extraterrestrial, civilization and beings. And how they may contact us? I think we now know. They have infested other, Homo sapien, critters. Your neighbors. Your boss. Your political officials. CEOs of major corporations that cannot fail! To keep handsomely lining the pockets of the, company executives! By taking from the poor and giving to the rich. And so that they can exhaust our planet of all of its important and necessary, natural resources. For their own ill-gotten gains! As any corrupt huuman would do here on earth! Of which we have plenty! As of the extraterrestrials may in fact, be far worse than, human beings? And they are here now! Many recently, reelected. For no good reasons! Such as Marjorie Taylor Greene. That's not a human being. That's something else entirely different.. It just looks like a Homo sapiens. But sure doesn't act or speak like one. She's from somewhere else. Not of this world. Because this is not how American humans, act. We get to agree to disagree. And allow our neighbors. To do what they please. As long as it does not directly affect us. And whatever they do in their private lives with their private bodies! And since we don't belong to the same religion. There should be no problems. As Americans get to do their independent thing. Though it's still not allowed. To kill people. Who have already come out from between some woman's legs. Called their mother. Just because you don't like their types. Which is how the KKK and American Nazi party came into being. In the USA. Filled with low IQ, low educational ladder, incestuous dysfunction. And want to call, sane Americans, crazy. Because they are certifiably, insane, themselves. And all other insane Americans like them. Like them. And think nothing's wrong. Because they have no capacity to actually, think. And then create conspiracy theories they call truths. If that is not certifiably insane? I don't know what is other than Hitler? They are all little Hitler's! They all want to, Have, control.. Of other people's lives in the USA! What the FUCK is wrong with that picture? It some other lowlife moron. That wants to control other people's lives in the USA. And so in the end. While our democracy has not been totally destroyed yet in the USA. It is on the way. By, bipedal critters. Who at times appear to be human but aren't. You've seen it in the science fiction movies. And most science fiction movies have come true! Our current crop of smart phones. Goes well beyond anything depicted in, Star Trek, back in 1966-69! With the only exceptions being,, faster than light speed travel and beam me up, Scotty.. The only two things! That and meeting other aliens. A lot more human than us! Like Mr. Spock & Data. But that's not who has visited us, already! It's a, nefarious, culture and civilization. That aims to destroy our planet and civilization. For their own ill-gotten gains. Just like Republicunt's here on earth. And dictators! Lots and lots of world dictators. We all know their ugly faces. They are the world's heretics. Always looking to attack and conquer! Of those who are, vulnerable and innocuous. As it makes their hell raising so much easier! To destroy those that can't destroy them. As in a business.. Too important to fail. But they need to fail! And fail big! In other words. These crazed dictators. They all want World War III. Because as boys. They like to blow things up and hassle others they don't like much. They are good little innocent boys that haven't done anything wrong! They just wanted to take back. That, they felt was rightfully theirs. Like, Taiwan and Ukraine and Crimea. Like South Korea for the North. And like, Finland into Russia. and maybe teaming up with a guy named She? To take back everything for total world domination! And… Well… Isn't that what Hitler also tried 100 years ago? Yes. It was. (Continued in next post)

Yeah, the van lifers that say they don't want a bath, that it's, "gross," to have a bathroom in your living area, I say, "where do you go to use the bathroom? Oh, the public toilet? And the shower? Where? How often?" We see which is more gross!

[@IreneIronTravels]

Yup, that about sums it up! 😂

[@carlyndolphin]

Great video .... what does single ply mean for number to? I’m guessing it’s the toilet roll which is less soft?

[@IreneIronTravels]

Thanks! Yes, the flushable single ply for number 2 for us and combo non flushable wet wipe. We have heard of some rv'ers not flushing any tp at all to extend boondocking, but we're not taking it to the extreme.

[@IreneIronTravels]

1 ply toilet paper is made of a single layer of paper, while 2 ply has two layers. So the 1 ply disintegrates faster in the black tank, while the 2 ply is softer and more comfortable and we put that in the trash only.

[@BoleiaDaVida]

Living or travelling in a Class-B is great. Easy to move, easy to park etc. A wet bath is just a small drawback. Keep in mind that you will stay no more than a few minutes in the bath during the day. Not a big deal. You will get used to this. IMHO the "pros" by far excedes this drawback.

Thank you for all the informations … I am new to your Chanel and the concept of living out of an RVVan … I like small spaces and am a minimalist , hence organizing a small space is not an issue at all . My questions are : Since I would like to live out of my Van , what are the parking options for such a Vehicle ? I live in Canada , however will travel soon post Covid . How do you maintain phone and internet services ? What price range is reasonable for the class B , new or used? Forgive me if my questions come across as haphazard , this is a huge switch for me and I am stepping in to uncharted waters :) … your help is greatly appreciated .❤️🇨🇦

How did you guys got rid of old fabric curtain on your bathroom, I've tried to take out without any succes.

[@IreneIronTravels]

If you bend the track open at the end the plastic tabs on the curtain can slide through. We then sewed those plastic tabs onto a new more water proof curtain!

[@casketbier151]

Well, that did it. What a giant pain in the ass!!!! From the no head room to no room for your ass to the ass wipe in the trash to the squeegee requirement after use. Forget the camping bullshit. Stay home do you can pee/ poop and wash your ass in comfort. Oh yeah the shower curtain smelling like B.O. right next to the stove- sign me up for that.

[@ImVGodsgift]

Great video. What van do y'all have? How do you like converting the couch into a bed every night?

[@IreneIronTravels]

Thanks! Our van is a 2014 Airstream Interstate. We really do like it! Great question on the bed and that is a video coming up next week! We really don't mind it (been doing it twice a day for two years😂), but on our next RV that would be a prereq for us to have a fixed bed, just to change it up!

[@ImVGodsgift]

@@IreneIronTravels ok. Thank you. I'll be looking for your video. I like a lot of class b vans however I don't know how I would feel about having to convert a couch multiple times per day.

[@IreneIronTravels]

The biggest reason we "put up" with it, is because we prefer to have two working/living spaces. I feel a permanent bed just takes up too much space...... unless one doesn't mind lounging on the bed during the day, is a solo traveler, or just using the van for shorter trips/camping.

[@ImVGodsgift]

@@IreneIronTravels very true on the permanent beds.

[@eh5318]

What is the brand of your towels? And where do you buy them? Also a portable shower tent is a great way to utilize the outside shower, or a swimsuit..

[@sew_gal7340]

Honestly though i would just use the shower head and spray my puzzy after i am done peeing...is there a problem with that? It all goes into the grey tank anyway right? At home i have a built in bidet on my toilet so i almost never use tp.

[@carlosavila9918]

How many times can you shower before it goes empty and for how long would be a good amount of time to have as many showers so it won't be to much hassle?

[@IreneIronTravels]

We could go about a week drying camping in our van with two people. We would shower every 2-3 days and you had to keep the showers to a couple minutes. We also brought extra water on board for drinking, so our 26 gallon fresh water tank was for showers, bathroom, washing dishes..etc.

How often when BoonDocking can you use your outdoor shower for a little more space?

[@IreneIronTravels]

Honestly, we don't use our outside shower at all. I've, never actually seen anyone using one while out boondocking, besides for pets. I think between the weather, wind, dirt, privacy, and convenience it's just not a practical option.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Hey there. The squeegee helps keep the shower clean in between deep cleans. I use "Comet no scratch cream cleanser" as a deep cleaner with a no scratch scrub sponge to scrub the walls and floor as needed, every month or so. I also use this product for our stainless steel kitchen sink and to deep clean the toilet. I only deep clean while we have full hook ups so I can rinse it really well. I use disinfecting wipes every few days on our toilet to keep that tidy on a regular basis. - Chris

@@IreneIronTravels I use about 2 oz of Jet Dry Finish Rinse for the dishwasher and water in a 16oz spray bottle for my home glass shower door. Spray the door and walls along with the fixtures and it rinses spot free just like the dishwasher. I don't see why it won't help for the RV shower.

[@FINELINEVAN]

I always wondered 😮how you all deal with these bathrooms. Good video showing so. I been trying to understand the benefits of a van camper and this bathroom besides the overall cost of a B which are starting in the 130 k and higher for a much tighter living space. We own a gulf stream B plus 28 ft 1 slide. It’s smaller a C but we have separate bedroom queen and a small bathroom with a decent sized shower it’s small but functional. These van B campers seem to be a constant pain to organize daily. I get the better MPG but your paying way more over a E450 which we get 11-12 mpg towing a Ford Ranger behind us. So what you save in gas you’ll never see that saving over the years of owning B And the extra room. I know you guys have s trailer now. I watch you guys all the time love the channel. Do you find the inconsistencies owning a B worth it. My wife likes the bedroom to separate or ready to lay down anytime. We see a lot of them in campgrounds and people seem to be squeezed tight lot of RAMs with Fiat engine too. 😢 I would like to hear you thoughts on cost effectiveness and convince owning one.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Yes, lots of variables with owning a true class b RV or converted van. Chris is the same way as your wife and always hated the fact she couldn’t lie in bed early if she felt like it. We had to make that conscious decision to turn the van into night mode and make the bed. And with the big bed made the van felt tiny! Ultimately it comes down to the person(s) and what their priorities, needs, and wants are and also what they are willing to give up. With a van there is only a small amount of space to deal with! For full time Rving with 2 people it only worked for us for a couple years. But they were some of the best years of our lives!

[@IreneIronTravels]

Hey Paul, thanks for checking out the channel! Congrats on your retirement and it sounds like your going to have a fun time in your truck camper! We saw some vintage rigs out in Q and it was fun to see!

[@WubiWatkins]

Rare baths are better bigger and they can double as a wet room for your added gear

[@MarySears]

Thanks for being so real when it come to TP! I’m ordering those towels too! Great video and love your longer hair!🥰

[@IreneIronTravels]

Thanks, Mary. We will keep the tips coming. I like my hair longer too, lucky for me it grows quickly :) - Chris

[@2glampers]

Have you found a soap (or body wash for the dispenser) that rinses well with minimum water in the shower? We have an Interstate 19 on order. Our experience is limited to our Airstream travel trailer and, although we do navy showers in it, the tanks in the Interstate 19 have considerably less capacity so any suggestion you have would be appreciated.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Hey guys! I(Aaron) use a natural brand off of Amazon called Puracy for hand, body and hair. Works really well I think for minimum water. Chris uses her standard body bar and shampoo conditioner that she also used in the house. I would check out the Puracy brand.

[@vanananag7736]

Hi, my husband and I use Dr. Bronners liquid , pure Castile soap, for showering and washing dishes in our travel trailer. We like that it comes in many scents, doesn’t create a heavy lather, and easily rinses off with minimal water. Be aware that the peppermint scent will make certain body parts tingle! I wash my hair with another product which is a shampoo/cream rinse combo. I find that if we have full hookups, water, sewer, electric, I can wash my hair without concern about fresh water usage and grey water levels. If boon docking, I tend not to wash my hair and I will take a quick, Navy shower with Dr Bronners.

[@abseconPC]

I would just buy a $20 a month Planet Fitness black card where you can go anywhere in the country and just use them to shower and just use that bathroom for absolute emergencies

[@IreneIronTravels]

We have that too and have been to almost 90 different locations! Mainly for the gym.....but the showers and bathroom are a bonus!

[@fitter70]

Awesome video. Thanks 😊

[@stevestrong458]

Kinda like a small house on wheels…

WhereDo you purchase a blower vacuum drill combination or use on RV like yours 2020 Mercedes the van RV

[@IreneIronTravels]

This is the blower we have amzn.to/3jUu3so and this is the drill amzn.to/383Y3PY

[@edwardtheodore1427]

Every time I watch you guys in that van I'm always happy as you were the first people to inspire my Van lIfe Love. But no matter how much you talk about your wet room I can't get it. I wouldn't buy that van as they could of given that wet bath at least 10 more inches for such a luxurious van it's unacceptable. I think you guys defend it because it's whats you have. If you're living somewhere permanent, you definitely will need a place to shit, shave, shampoo, and shower, and more often than not. In any case, you guys seem to have convinced yourself that it's awesome and workable.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Thanks, appreciate your comment and point of view! I think our excitement comes from just having a fully functional bathroom and shower on a 22 ft van. Many of these 100k plus new van builds people are doing have a toilet that slides out from a kitchen cabinet or a shower that you have to unfold and set up! Yes, the wetbath is too small to do anything but the two functions of necessity, but we're just glad to have one! Thanks for watching!!

[@RRW359]

I'm thinking of getting something similar to a class B (Truck Camper) but I also may want a full-time job when I live in it. Would there be any problems with having a short shower almost every day, and what's the worst that could happen if you don't regularly wipe it down?

[@IreneIronTravels]

Yes, you could totally take a short shower every day and the more you do it the better you'd get at saving water. If you didn't wipe it down, it would just stay wet longer and would probably hard water stain. You would atleast need to keep it aired out to dry because it can stay damp for a long time is closed off.

[@lauriecave3760]

Who is Irene?? I thought I was going to hear about where your name came from. I do have a question....do you ever get scared when you’re boondocking?

[@IreneIronTravels]

It's Chris's middle name, Christine Irene!😂 Great question about boondocking, we will do that topic shortly! Thanks Laurie!

[@michaelconchscooter8940]

After years of boat living we wanted a shower compartment with no running water. Our toilet is a porta potty for simplicity because it doesn’t bother me to deal with it. For showering we can shower by using a solar shower which we normally use outside. Post pandemic we will return to gyms and truck stop showers are amazingly clean and easy. We also put all toilet paper in the garbage which makes dumping easy. We have no humidity in our custom built van. A rather less middle class solution I know.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Hey Michael! Thanks for sharing your setup and tips!

[@earthstar2493]

I want one how do I do this???

[@gwrace]

Why would you opt for this over say a Leisure Travel Van Class B+ with a dry bath and lots of storage. Never liked the sliding door, lack of external storage or wet bath in a class b.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Many would choose a true b over a b+ for the smaller overall size for parking and driving. The width is a big deal for some. Could be their HOA doesn’t allow RV’s or they even just prefer the look of a regular van body. Like you said, some would choose the inside space and storage as a priority for them. Lots of options and scenarios for different needs and preferences.😊

[@justinbumrungkittikul1042]

Could you demonstrate the shower water pressure?

[@regularolpoet1462]

A wet bath is standard in Asia.

[@vanventure4985]

Nice Video! Just subscribed, I am not full time in my B but I do try and spend a third of my time on the road.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Awesome! Thank you!😃

[@BuckleBunny]

When you replace your hair tile, I would suggest you getting a Turkish towel. The hand towel size is the same as the hair towel tell you have now. They actually absorb more water out of your hair than those hair twisty towels.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Oh, great tip! I'll let her know. Someone else mentioned they use Turkish towels and I had to look them up!

[@jim-uu2db]

Great info and demo

[@aubreyj.tennant1123]

Nicely done!

[@MsJaye7]

Thanks you so much for this video. Super helpful.

[@IreneIronTravels]

You're very welcome!

[@pathfinder9759]

This video helped a lot, thank you. I'm on the fence whether to buy a class B or go with a truck & camper. But the wet bath concerns I had were answered, (Squeegee & wipes).

[@IreneIronTravels]

Awesome! Thanks for watching! 😁

[@dbl6613]

I took the mirror out and put the soap dispenser in it's place, gives more room in shower to move and you do know that the side pushes out in your bathroom.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Nice mod! Forget to mention it but, we don't ever bump out the bathroom just because its one more step for setup. But we should have mentioned it!

[@philipmartin4341]

Great guys

[@alexcolima7894]

Do you have to be plugged to a water source to shower or is there a water source in the van

[@IreneIronTravels]

There is a 26 gallon fresh water tank in the van. 27 gallon gray and 15 gallon black tank.

[@jefflenard4060]

new to your channel, we are looking at a class b or b+ thanks for all the great information. its really helpful in making our decision.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks a lot for watching!!😃

[@lvcowboy53]

what kind of towels do you use? I would like to get some of those as well because they are so nice and big! What is the brand name?

[@IreneIronTravels]

We got them off Amazon, but sure of the brand name. No name probably, but cheap, big, and works great! Thanks for watching! www.amazon.com/shop/ireneironfitness?listId=17NT6IQSIO6HX

[@madwitch58]

I have a fairly good-sized dog and a cat. With I be able to have them in a Class B.

[@IreneIronTravels]

We know a few people with B's and pets...its tight but doable!😊

Excellent video. Thanks.

[@ihogenhuis960]

Hi guys! What are the dimensions of this wetbath? Length and width?

[@IreneIronTravels]

Hello! Its kinda an odd shape but it is 71 inches high, by about 45 inches long and then 20inches to 25 inches at its widest!

[@rayvalerio2854]

Ok curious question...how is sex like in van?

[@IreneIronTravels]

We probably won't do a video on that topic 😳 but we'll say it's not much different than in a home!

[@craig8403]

Chris, your hair looks especially nice in this video. Aaron, so does your hair. :)

[@IreneIronTravels]

Oh, thank you so much! My hair is usually hiding up in a ponytail :) I do cut Aarons hair myself, every week or two. I love cutting Aaron's hair.

[@davesnelting2886]

We are interested in the chamois type towels you mentioned in the "What Is It REALLY Like to Use a Wet Bath In a Class B RV" video. Where can we find them to purchase? Thanks so much. We enjoy your channel.

Did you add the shower soap dispenser or did it come with your Class B. Also, what brand is it?

[@IreneIronTravels]

It does come with the Airstream Class B's, but if you search "rv wall soap dispenser" in Amazon there are similar options. Thanks for watching!

[@MonacoMike]

@@IreneIronTravels Thanks. Our Class A came with one but I need to replace one of the bottles and I can't find a replacement. I think ours is called a CONAIR.
