That's why it used to be called a "water closet" !!!

Chester being a left hander has its advantages. Since we have to live in a world where everything is backwards we have to be adaptable to things being in the wrong place. Back in my college days I was excited when I first saw a left handed desk. Sat in it and quickly moved to a regular desk. It just didn't feel right.
And I always find it funny when a "right hander" has trouble doing something that is so much easier done with a left hand.

I may not have made my self clear on the "mid bath" it's not like the water closet and then the shower vanity in the bedroom.. This coach the toilet vanity and shower are all between the kitchen and the bedroom with separate air doors between bed room and bathroom and galley and bathroom..

Chappell and Marc, perhaps all three are different. My mid-coach toilet is also in a closet and with plenty of room which makes it very private when someone else is using the shower or vanity. A minor benefit is that when on the road, we do not have to extend the slide to have full access. The vanity and shower are located in the bedroom and there is one air door isolating all of them. The bath and a half also has an enclosed toilet, but I seem to need a lot of closet space and love the king size bed. Perhaps the point is that one buys what is available at a specific time and price, and falls in love with it. Kind of natural, I guess.
Forest, with a worn out right shoulder I am learning to use my left hand more often (like the TV remote), but I still need a right hand mouse. If I ultimately have to have the shoulder replaced, I will have to find a left handed mouse and then I may have to shop for a Newell like this one.

Chester, your coach is what most single bath Newell's are, large awesome master closet . Toilet in separate closet, and vanity shower in bedroom.. This one all 3 fixtures are in a separate room.

We had that configuration in our '93. Since the toilet is used more often than the shower we much prefer the separate toilet room we have now for the privacy. Some things just don't need to be shared!

We have a very similar bath arrangement in our '92 other than the toilet is opposite the shower. The floor plan has worked well for us although I do like the bath and a half.
