I wonder how they did a survey on that...? And hopefully they're not putting in drawers that come open during transit. Just had a thread on that. Couldn't believe it.

Survey says;
Your trailer, Your choice. No one knows what you do. Do you plan to use n oven?
If so find a different salesman who does not quote surveys.
If you want to quote a survey.
Tell him most surveys on this forum state "salesmen lie to make a sale'

WOW

For once ---The salesman was being completely honest----( he didnt make the choice) (campers did):S

most people most people do not use the oven in the camper --that is why they start taking them out ---so that they can put in more drawer storage space .

now some models you can get the oven ,other ones come with the oven --some just come with the burner top and of course a convection microwave.


It's a change in lifestyle changing way that people do things and of course the manufacturers are going to change to satisfy most people

Once again----For once the salesman is telling the truth ----he did not make the change ---surveys of owners of Rigs-- caused the change.
Find a model that has what you want.

No, but my Weber Q grill which works just as well as an oven works just fine without power. ;)

Ovens are a very polarizing subject, neither side "gets" the other side, some people proudly proclaim, "we only use it for storage", while others say, "we use it all the time". Remember, if you don't have power, the microwave doesn't work. We had to really look to find an 18 footer with an oven, previously I owned 2 truck campers and both had ovens, neither had a microwave or AC or shower, to us an oven was a top priority, we use it a lot. We've had our trailer 1 1/2 years and haven't used the microwave yet, our goal is to see how long we can make it without using it.

Use the oven all the time, mostly for pizza. Wouldn't buy an RV without one. The last thing I want to hear when I'm camping is a generator running just so I can eat.

Before we retired, we often left home Friday afternoon after work to get a couple hours jump start on the RVing weekend. We would stop and get a take n bake pizza on the way out of town. She would put it in the oven as soon as we arrived at the campsite, and it would bake while we were setting up.

Cold rainy mornings she would bake fresh breakfast rolls in the oven. Dinner on rainy evenings. Beats BBQing in the rain or snow.

Our oven did not get a lot of use, but enough that we were glad we had it. We can still store stuff in it while traveling.

I just use the oven for storage.

We just traded our 7 year old trailer. The only thing ever in the oven was dust.

It has always been no oven for us. We use our TT for camping and enjoying the great outdoors as much as possible. The last think my wife wants to do is be inside the trailer tending to something in the oven. It's outdoor grilling, cooking and to some extent baking for us.

I would rather have a cabinet for storage there. I can bake on my grill if I need to. Never enough storage.
