Hello RVers.I'm looking for help from any vertically challenged RVer like myself. We have a beautiful new 5th wheel but alas most of the cupboards are out of my reach. I didn't think about this when making our choice cause everything else about our new home (yep we are going to be full timers) is just perfect.Apart from keeping a step ladder inside do any of you have any suggestions. I have looked into the Rev A Shelf pull down shelving units but unfortunately they are not going to work. I contacted a cabinet maker and they came and had a look to get an idea of what I wanted. I've not heard from them since. Wonder why :h Looking forward to reading your suggestionsHappy trailsKiwi On The Loose

Wife is 4' 11".This works great. Small, easy to store, sturdy, lightweight, easy to grab.Folding step stool.

Wife bought a cherry wood, step stool, of maybe twelve inches, height. It tucks under the diet table. Under way under the side of the bed or one or the large cabinets beside the closet.Can't tel you where she bought it. It has been around probably six or seven years. Look on the internet, maybe.It has a narrow hand hold slot, in the middle, of top, to pick it up. Don't have to reach all the way down to the legs.

X3 on the folding step stool. I have one and use it to get to the highest cabinets and I'm 5'7".

Yup, step stool here too. Also I arranged my cabinets in a way I wouldn't necessarily do it at home, but the items in the very tallest cabinet are things I don't use as much... trays, mixing bowls, extra cups, etc.

Thanks for your responses. That step stool looks great. I've arranged the cupboards with least used highest but I seem to be forever on the step stool.
