I find it interesting how our "needs" evolve to suit our changing tastes. I grew up in an 800 sq ft house with one bathroom and an "emergency" toilet downstairs in an unfinished basement. There were three people in the household and the number of times anyone used the downstairs facility was quite small. So "needing" a bath and a half in a MH with two people is perception not reality.
As a slightly off-topic note, I was struck by the fact that in two of the previous posts people noted that their bathrooms were not usable (or at least easy to access) with the slides in. When my DW and I wrestled with the MH vs 5er decision one of the deciding factors was that in our MH we have access to 100% of its cabinetry and other amenities with the slides closed. In extremely bad weather we have lived with them in for ~ a week without serious inconvenience. I had always assumed that this was a common MH characteristic, maybe it's not, or isn't with today's designs?
