Hello. We are looking at 2010 171. We understand 2011 bathroom came with sink.
No sink: leaves extra room to shower & could use sanitary wipes.
Sink: do not have to wash hands or brush teeth in kitchen.
Question: As a compromise have any owners found best way & product to install a folding sink in the bathroom?
(Google shows pictures of "folding up" & "folding down" sinks).
Thank you. John. Js123Traveller@Gmail.com

Glad I don't have a sink in my 2010 171.  Many folks with newer pods are removing the sink for more room.  Put a bottle of hand sanitizer in the bathroom.

Your grey tank vent pipe will be in one of the bathroom walls there.  Can't say for sure which one, but you'd just want to tap into that if you can find it for draining.

I dunno, I'd think it's more trouble than it's worth, my Pod was one of the first to have a sink and I was the first to rip it out years ago.  But that's a personal choice for how we prefer to use our shower.

Ditto on the sink, I was glad mine didn't have it and would have ripped it out if it did.  Just not enough room in there, even if it does fold down, IMO.  Use the kitchen for hand washing, etc.
