Noted none mention flat top burners nor the fact the mew installs of oven is high and requires reaching up to get HOT food out of oven, rather a safety issue and to have to stand on something to do this, even worse. As said wife has bad arm/shoulder issue and would want her or I to try and remove hot items when going down road (motor home, not towed). It would seem that if paying $100-200K for home would not have to go to option. Simply not going to buy unit with this rig the way it is and to me, having looked at units, limply impossibl4 to see status of items cooking. We have both type ovens at home and convection WAS mounted high as in units, we cook in oven and found it not the greatest for comfort, safety, We are not fans of processed "instant warm up" type food, So oven at usable level, easy to inspect food and burners where we can install, when needed, rails to hold cooking times, as used on my sailboat galley, are also safety issue.
Seems this is just another way to cut costs and have seen units with electric ovens, burners like we want Sorry but as far as "new up to date state of art etc, at the price for new units I call the shots, and did find real oven/burners cost more. To me cooking on flat top burners if moving, to warm up something, is very dangerous.. Same with high up convection/micro if moving as CG a few feet higher can impact stuff in side it. I and wife do NOT want to reach up to retrieve hot items, parked or under way. I am referring to Class A units, not towed.
You can't be convinced I see that.
Please note though Few people heat items on a stove while moving down the highway it's REALLY not safe and the MH is not a boat so while " docked" ?? It isn't moving is it?
My DW 5'4" easily Puts in and takes and takes out items in the glass front oven that are at her eye level completely, safely. I'm sorry your wife has a arm disability that prevents that. . As far as the induction glass top range it's super efficient heats more quickly , evenly and with greater control of the temp . Have you ever used one?
No matter, if you don't want it .... you don't .. I get that Good luck in your search... fewer and fewer people are looking for high level MH equipped that way. They want modern home appliances
BTW These items aren't cost cutting ideas .. By the time you add the extra batteries wiring , better inverter , bigger generator etc they aren't cost savers they ARE what most customers demand
