I had planned on being creative and building something to cover the burners of my two burner range. I was searching the Internet when I found one made by the original manufacturer. I installed it today.
to keep the grease off my walls behind and beside my stove top, I bought two sheets of plex glass and put them up, no grease on the walls, only the plex.
That sounds great Dutchmen. If I were in a bigger camper,I would definitely want something like that. In the Colby T,everything has to have a place of its own. There is no room to move it even temporarily while cooking or something. Also, since I don't ever put the dinette up any more, I use a folding table that I bought at Walmart. It provides the hard surface I need for most anything else.
What I would really like, since I NEVER use the gas range, is to remove the stove and cover the hole. But, as soon as I do something that drastic, I'll get a yen for boondocking and want my range back or something.
Our new Outback did not have a cover on the stove either. We ended up getting a large cutting board with a cork backing from WallMart and just place it on top of burners. It stays in place when traveling. It creates extra counter space when washing dishes, and still serves as a cutting board, carrying tray, portable table top, and hard surface when we need a hard surface when laying in bed. We can take it outside on the picnic table so can use it put utensils on when cooking outside. Our last TT had a metal cover attached that opened up and folded back. I was VERY disappointed our Outback did not have a cover until we bought the cutting board. Because the cutting board has so many other functions other than just a cover, it's actually better and more functional than a single purpose metal hooded cover. Our cutting board is that hardened plastic black with the cork back. It's the largest one Wall Mart sold. And because it's black, it blends right in with the stove and the rest of the decor.
