and a hand held wand too, but honestly we never use any of that. it's a steam cabinet shower minus the steam generator. it saved us $400 to have them keep the steam unit.

my thinking was, once i close the door and turn on hot water, i'll have steam anyway.

we do have a tub in the guest bath, but i've only used it to bathe the dogs

as for the size of the bathroom, it's really a waste of space, i'd much rather have a larger closet and a pantry !! we didn't change the floorplan of the trailer though, but i wish now we would have

edit to add, that space with the new tile is about 9x7
