Customer Story:

Nolan Ivie - Renegade Vans

“Since I had already been living and traveling in my campervan for three years prior to joining the RV Remodeling Industry, the idea of working on vans and conversion vehicles for a living was not as far fetched because it was just an extension of the life I had already been living. When you live on the road full time, issues always arise and you have to develop a knowledge base in various fields of building in order to diagnose issues and get back on the road. I have applied this knowledge base to each new build, learning something new from every experience and always building better and better. Another reason why I joined the industry is because I love the community of builders whom I work with. We are friends as well as coworkers and are constantly inspired by each others creativity.” – Nolan Ivie, Owner of Renegade Vans

For van builders, a good assembly of parts can help van builders to effectively utilize space and achieve a better travel experience.Furthermore, good parts can improve the comfort and convenience of drivers and passengers, which are key factors for living in a van.

Renegade Vans was looking for preciate the right size of the sinks and faucet with sprayer hose, which is suitable for RV and tiny home use. Additionally, the sinks are compact yet deep enough for practical use, and their aesthetic appeal allows them to be seamlessly integrated into the design of tiny homes and campers.

Why Choose TORVA RV Sink?

The reasons for choosing Torva sink vary from customer to customer. Nolan chose the sink primarily for its elegant look and its ability to integrate well into his overall design scheme. Aaron, on the other hand, initially purchased a Torva sink because the first one he bought from the company was too small and the second one was a better fit for his needs:TORVA 15-inch Undermount Black RV Sink and a faucet.

Key Features of TORVA RV Sink

The Torva undermount sink is designed for RV and Tiny Home customers and offers built-in accessories, such as a bottom rinse grid, 2pcs basket strainer drain, and a towel, that fit neatly into the sink. The sink is constructed of 16 gauge stainless steel and features soundproofing pads to minimize running water noise. An anti-condensation spray undercoating is also applied to prevent moisture accumulation.

Tips for Other Van Builds Considering TORVA RV Sink

  • Advises measuring the available space to ensure the sink will fit.
  • Recommends considering which built-inaccessories will best suit your needs.
  • Emphasizes the importance of proper installation, as Torva sinks are designed for installation.
  • Focuses on the importance of taking care of the sink to prevent scratches and maintain its appearance.

Question
What were you using before our sink?
Answer
Nolan: “I was using a Ruvati sink basin with a separate faucet from another company. It has a built in cutting board just like Torva, which is something that I like.”
Aaron: “I had a smaller Torva sink and upgraded to the bigger one that the company sent us.”
?
Question
What were the three major points of frustration you faced?
Answer
Nolan: about Ruvati 1:The sink is made out of very good material but it is not very easy to clean. Food residue sticks to the corners and is difficult to scrub out. 2: The faucet looks very nice but it breaks easily when the temperature gets too cold. 3: The sink has another attachment that fits in the basin which holds kitchen cleaning supplies but I find that it is unnecessary and simply gets in the way.”
Aaron: ”It was 12×10 and too small for my needs.”
?
Question
What other challenges were you experiencing prior to using our sink?
Answer
Nolan: The challenges I experienced prior to using Torva’s sink were not overwhelming, but I simply prefer using your product over other sinks because it’s elegant and functions very well. I don’t like using products that I constantly have to make adjustments for and replace parts. I believe that if it is good, it should remain good.”
?
Question
What were the top reasons you selected our product?
Answer
Nolan: “Because it looked elegant and I wanted to incorporate the sink into my build.”
Aaron: “Because my first sink I bought from Torva was too small and the second sink fit better.”
?
Question
What feature of our product was the most appealing?
Answer
Nolan: “I like the faucet because it’s a good size and works very well.”
Aaron: “The dimensions made sense for our camper because it wasn’t too big. They were compact enough but deep enough. The faucet is cool because it has a sprayer hose that’s a good size, whereas other companies have a sprayer hose that is too big.”
?
Question
How did you first hear about our product?
Answer
Nolan: “I heard about your product through Aaron because he had used your sink previously.”
