Hi, can anyone advise on the correct size plug which keeps the hot water in the basin. Every Autosleeper we have ever owned has had the same problem! The plug protrudes from the plughole and is VERY easily knocked out of place while washing up, so the precious hot water escapes.
I have bought a huge variety of different sized rubber plugs but have yet to find a perfect fit which solves the problem.
Can anyone advise PLEASE? I would be SO grateful to get rid of this daily frustration.

Use a washing up bowl, saves water too.

I didn't even get a sink plug with my Symbol, bought new. Should I have? I bought a bowl, but rarely use the sink anyway as it turns out.

Definitely use a bowl. You can even empty the water into an external drain/service point to avoid filling your tank with yukky water.

I agree with tinwheeler, but we have bought a universal plug in case. Also useful for sites with missing plugs
