What do folks think of the new layout of outdoor kitchen in their 2015 Jayco Eagle 314 BHDS?
For the 2015 model year they have omitted the 2-burner propane stove (which I am disappointed about) and have added a small microwave.
It looks like it is designed to mount an outdoor HDTV since there is a small shelf above the fridge (for a DVD/Blu-Ray player or satellite receiver) and the cabinet has been scaled down and moved to the right side above microwave (leaving an opening for the TV in the center). But it seems that isn't in an ideal spot for a TV since it is not under the main awning where folks would be sitting.
QUESTION: How do folks like the changes to outdoor kitchen layout in this unit? Has anyone mounted a TV on the kitchen wall between fridge and cabinet?
Many thanks!
That looks very nice! I have a 2011 Jayco Jay Feather Select 29l with the outdoor kitchen and we love it. My OK has the refrigerator, 2 burner stove, sink, one drawer, a double door cabinet and counter space. Having the extra refrigerator eliminates the need for beverage coolers. We use the stove and sink all the time. The cabinets are used for the plates, napkins, cups, pots, pans etc. The one thing that comes to mind with the microwave and TV in the outdoor kitchen is that they are located behind the wheels and you will get alot of bounce which fragile electrical equipment doesn't like. I know alot of TT's have rear kitchens, but that is something to consider for that microwave/TV in the outdoor kitchen. I guess I don't see the need for the extra microwave since we use it only periodically.
