Replacing Bathroom Sink

We have a 2018 30ft Classic. Has anyone replaced their bathroom sink? In ours, the drain is actually higher than the edges. It never drains completly. This has to be the worst design ever.

Ours is fine. We have the same model. Can you take a picture? Could be a number of different things, Airstream should be able to warranty out if it is a design issue

Have you tried clearing the waterless catch? Maybe construction debris or hair is backed up in there?

I think mine is in need of cleaning as the draining is incredibly slow.

Mine is the same. Poor quality control I think in the mold allowing the drain lip to be slightly higher than the basin. Really annoying to always have water there.

Hi

Simple answer is to pull the drain fitting and clean up either the fitting or the sink insert as required. It's also possible that somebody got a bit carried away with the sealer when they did the assembly.

Even with the drain edge below the sink insert, it still drains *very* slowly. It will drain if things are exactly level .... good luck with that adjustment

AS replaced sink on our 2019 in July. Regardless of level, it would not drain. Seems better, now. Was not just poorly installed drain.
