Ovens in DP's, or lack thereof
I have made my last major repair to the Bounder. It's 26 years old and many things are dying especially the plastic ones. We have our condo of forty years for sale and the S&B remodel is almost done...

So far as I know, all the ones without a gas oven have a combination microwave/convection oven. We have drawers in the space where an oven would otherwise be, and we appreciate the extra kitchen storage it gives us.
We also have a 2-burner LP stove. Our only complaint with it is that the two burners are too close together, which makes it difficult to use 2 pans of any size concurrently. We solved that by buying a countertop induction cooker and a set of induction cookware.
I think a lot of Class A owners eat out frequently and don’t cook too much. We prefer to eat in most of the time due to special dietary needs.
Ours came with an icemaker. For us, a dishwasher would be handier, but that choice depends on your lifestyle. It seems that dishwashers are more common in fifth wheels and ice makers more common in coaches. You can often add what you want, or switch out something.
It is possible to find some very nice, well-kept, older DPs in the 35-36 foot range for a fair price. Take your time and do your homework while looking.
