We have a new 2020 302rik camper, have used it twice so far since purchasing it new in June of this year. The neo-angle shower has a very 'soft' flexible bottom that feels like you will fall thru. Opened up the oval access port to discover that the shower base is perched on top of a 7/16" thick OSB support held up by 4 short 2x4 pieces. There is a 1/4" gap between the shower base foam and the OSB and around the drain there is a 8" wide cutout with no support The shower base moves down a lot, expecially around the drain area....over 1/2". Does not feel safe. I installed another 6 support blocks under the shower base, but wanted to know what others have done with their showers, or if ours is an anomaly ? Thanks, Brad

I think this came up a couple years back and was fixed the same way. Try searching in the forums, I see this is your first post, I'll see if I can find the prior. |

I think Edd is 100% right, and that is how it was fixed- added more supports.

Nice! Pics for things like this are always welcome, too! Some will say that "without pics, it didn't happen", though.  Lyle |

The link in a post above will show photos of my fix. They have been building them like this for years, keep looking and you will find plenty to do. |

I had same issue in my Coachmen. Used some scrap pressure treated lumber, 2x4 and 2x6. Cut small blocks and inserted them thru access panel. It worked very well.
