View description
This 32cm square washing up bowl fits perfectly into compact sinks found in caravans, motorhomes, campervans and boats. The plastic construction provides durability whilst the integrated handles make lifting and emptying straightforward, even when full. With a 7-litre capacity, there's enough room for a full meal's worth of dishes without taking up excessive space in your vehicle's kitchen area.

The square design maximises usable washing space compared to round bowls of similar external dimensions. At 32 x 28 x 13cm overall, it slots into standard caravan sink cutouts whilst the handles extend to the 32cm width, giving you something to grip without needing to reach into soapy water. This particular size has become something of an industry standard for leisure vehicle manufacturers, which means it should fit most older and newer models without modification.

One thing to note is that plastic bowls can scratch over time if you scrub them with abrasive pads, though this tends to be more of a cosmetic issue than a functional one. The lightweight construction means it won't add meaningful weight to your payload, and the neutral colour coordinates with most caravan interior schemes without clashing. For those who wash up at campsite facilities rather than in the vehicle, the handles make it easy to carry dirty dishes across the pitch.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size caravan sink does this 32cm washing up bowl fit?

This bowl fits standard caravan, motorhome, campervan and boat sinks with the 32cm external diameter measurement including the integrated handles. The square design at 32 x 28 x 13cm overall dimensions has become an industry standard size for leisure vehicles, making it compatible with most caravan manufacturers from 2010 onwards including Bailey, Swift, Lunar and Elddis models. The bowl sits inside the sink cutout whilst the handles rest on the sink edges for easy removal.

Why choose a square washing up bowl instead of a round one?

Square washing up bowls maximise the usable washing space within the same external footprint as round bowls. The 32cm square design provides more corner space for stacking plates and larger items like frying pans, which can be difficult to fit in circular bowls. The flat edges also make better use of the sink base area, and the square shape prevents items from rolling around whilst washing. For compact caravan kitchens where every centimetre counts, this translates to fewer wash cycles needed.

What is the capacity of this washing up bowl and is it enough for caravanning?

The bowl holds 7 litres of water, which provides sufficient capacity for a full meal's worth of dishes for 2-4 people without needing to change the water. This volume strikes a balance between usefulness and water conservation, which matters when caravanning with limited fresh water tank capacity. The 13cm depth allows you to submerge dinner plates and cereal bowls fully whilst the integrated handles make it manageable to lift and empty when full without spillage.

How do you clean and maintain a plastic caravan washing up bowl?

Clean the bowl with warm water and standard washing up liquid using a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive scourers or steel wool as these scratch the plastic surface which can harbour bacteria and make the bowl look cloudy over time. For hard water deposits or cloudiness, use a mixture of one part white vinegar to two parts water, let it sit for an hour, then rinse thoroughly. The bowl should not be placed in dishwashers or exposed to very hot water above 60 degrees celsius as this can warp the plastic and affect its shape.

Can this washing bowl be used outside the caravan at campsite facilities?

The integrated handles make this bowl practical for carrying dirty dishes to campsite washing facilities. Many caravanners prefer using communal washing areas to reduce water usage in the caravan's fresh tank and minimise waste water in the grey tank. The lightweight plastic construction means it will not be heavy to carry even when loaded with dishes, and the 7-litre capacity holds enough items for a single trip. Using campsite facilities also reduces moisture buildup and potential water damage on caravan worktops.
