Drinking in bed

I brought two of these for our Adria, they work very well just a tad dear, but have had them for eight years without a spill, so saved a fortune on laundry,



I have something similar, but in plastic. Best bit of kit I'VE had for the motorhome.
 
Got quite excited by this. As Lucky says- so simple. However- the "bedroom" walls on the van are sort of furry (!) and I dont thing adhesive hooks will work.

There you go again, throwing up problems. Is there anything else you haven't told us? 😆😙
 
You get these for cars to go between seat and central tunnel. I used on in my old rally car fastened permanently, you might be able to fasten to the fridge

This might be perfect. It looks like it might fit down the edge of mattress/wardrobe door on one side and mattress/rear door on the other. Having said that, the price on the WISH website changes everytime you click anything. Final price for a right/left pair was £20. Now found same item on ebay for £9.59 so have just ordered. Will update this when they arrive! Thanks.
 
No problem. Ended up paying £14 with postage. If they don't fit / look ok, seller happy to have them back.
Interesting have a similar dilemma with our fixed rear bed. Can you get a cuppa in there, that’s the deal breaker. Look forward to hearing how you get on.
 
One of mine with a pint glass and room to spare and a travel mug

We've got two of those. Very solid. :)
 
Two Command removable hooks and a cheap hanging shelf from eBay/Amazon. I remove shelf when travelling. It holds my book and glasses at night.

It may be too simple a solution but if you find one of holders doesn't hold your usual mug ... just by a mug that fits!

In the words of Julian Clary "I thank you ....". :LOL:

Why not put it on the washroom side panel?

Save yourself a fortune and get out of bed., sit at table . drink drink and go back to bed..............No charge! :LOL:
 
Make one! I am a DIY arse but I managed it!

We had exactly the same problem, because Mrs DDJC has a psychological condition whereby she says that she is incapable of getting up out of the moho bed, without at least two cups of tea.

You need some of that wood stuff, shelf holder-uppers and something that changes the wood colour. A small drilling gadget, a saw, and some screws. And voila!

I put in three shelves, but I've just noticed from the third pic that they need a wipe over following our recent trip and I missed a huge splodge of stain and am too embarrassed to post it up.

Shelf was plain finished pine 12mm. The edging was just a strip of plain round top beading. Brass wood screws and a double coat of dark pine woodstain.

The shelf brackets are these:

The shelf that you are needing doesn't need to support a huge weight. I'm guessing two full cups and a phone on charge? These brackets will easily be strong enough.

The bonus for these brackets is that you assemble and stain yourself, so that they are completely finished. Then simply slide them in and tighten the holding screws.

Total cost was about thirty quid and three hours or so.

Best of luck.



Oh all right. Don't laugh.
