Rear kitchens

Pay more attention to those that have express problems with the rear kitchen. None of us wants to admit that we made a mistake in our purchase eg. rear kitchen so we will either be silent or express approval of the choice.
We don't have one and would never have one because of the bouncing problems inherent with a TT. 5ers may be better.

We have a Sunset Trail 30RK and love the rear kitchen. No more moving around in the cupboards than with any of our other trailers. The extra counter space is a great feature. I was worried about not being able to get into the refrig while traveling due to the slide but it has proven to never be a problem. Sometimes we pack a small cooler of drinks for the truck or we stop at a rest area and put the slide out while we eat if we need to access the refrigerator.

We love our rear kitchen. :)

Love our rear kitchen.You able to use it without being in the way of anybody.We are able to access our fridge with the slide in.We haven't had a problem (yet)of anything flying out.Things do move around in the cupboards but we make sure things are lying down and we have put material on the shelving to keep things from sliding around.

We have a Heartland North Trail 26RKS. No problems.

It also has to do with the suspension in your rig as far as how your RK handles the road. Our last and current RV (TT and Fifth, respectively) both had shocks and EZ Flex suspension.

Works great for us. No problem in cupboards but we did have an issue once with drawer coming straight forward on a stop so I put a wooden dowel through them all and never a problem since. I have heard those without shocks seem to have more issues. We have shocks on ours but don't know for sure if that is a for sure answer but may want to watch for them.

We had a rear kitchen in our last 5ver which we used for 9 years. Things did not seem to move around anymore than our present mid kitchen and maybe even less.

We have the rk and really like the counter space and extra cabinets. For years we didn't take any particular precautions, but did have a platter and mug, both ceramic, broken when we hit a couple of big, unexpected dips in the road. Since then we've paid a bit more attention to packing more fragile items and have had no more problems.

We have a Jayco Eagle 256RKS (rear kitchen)

With any floor plans there are good and bad. The rear kitchen does get bounced around a bit. Our drawers almost always fall out. Everything in the cabinets is all over the place when we arrive at our destination. I've had to re-support the microwave to stop it from falling out and now our stove keeps loosening up.

We do like the rear kitchen with it being right next to the rear door. Our Jayco Eagle does allow full use of the kitchen and fridge while on the road without extending the slide. Next time we are in the market for another TT, we may consider an alternate floor plan
