- BelgiqueExplorerJMHO but the gas oven in the MH is so small inside (height) that there is barely anything it can be used for. Again, JMHO.
- thompson60ExplorerDid you find one? I am talking above removing to get more cupboard space. It is an Attwood Wedgewood Vision oven with broil feature. In 2009 Fleetwood, Oven never used. Presently in RV park in Las Vegas.
- pnicholsExplorer IIHmmm ... when we "boondock" in our motorhome we have no issues with running the (built-in) genny as required (we're away from other campers). We do it all the time when using the microwave.
If we had a convection/microwave combo I guess we'd also run the genny to power it when boondocking. From a generator run-time perspective, about how long do convection ovens take to cook items? Are we talking about ultra-long generator run-times to power a convection/microwave combo when the combo is in the convection mode? - j-dExplorer IIPlug for ABC Motorhome Rentals in Anchorage: We reserved a rental and were disappointed when it didn't include an Oven. All the units had Cooktop only, and a Microwave above. They went to the trouble of walking through all their available units till they found one with a Micro/Convection oven. It seemed to be a full-sized residential unit because it extended beyond the cooktop below.
We were amazed how well it cooked. Even baking biscuits. We have, and still want, a gas oven in our RV. Just saying I can see the lure of Convection. Unless you boondock... - AprilWhineExplorerUntil you get used to your convection oven, why not buy a portable propane oven and use it outside?
- WyoTravelerExplorerMost of the MHs we looked at had convection ovens only. We finally said OK we will put in propane oven later. Year later, DW wants convection oven in the stick house too and throw out gas oven. If the power is there they cook better than propane or gas oven with just a few exceptions.
- mena661ExplorerHere's a better pic of the interior. No idea how you can get a propane oven in there without cabinet work.
- JiminDenverExplorer III would think that if there is gas to a cook top already, that wont be a issue. Any RV center should be able to give you a idea of what it will take. Then again you could get a stove top oven for a lot less.
We have done things to make our 3 season unit more comfortable in the cold including window covers, ( heavy bath towels will do), stuff the vents, padded rugs on the floors and I'm working on getting insulation into hidden areas like behind the cabinets. We are more comfortable and the furnace runs less. A true 4 season will have it's tanks ans water lines enclosed and the furnace will deliver heat to those areas. I'd have to run dry if it were freezing day and night. - RoyBExplorer IIThat is the same here as J-D described. I don't have a lower cabinet space available for a typical gas oven install. My convection oven is part of my microwave unit.
- j-dExplorer IIPoor pic from Thor's webpages, but is this your kitchen? And is that Convection Oven part of the Stove/Oven combo (miniature version of a home stove) pictured there?
If so, shouldn't be too hard to replace one kind with the other.
But the RV's I've seen with no gas oven had only a gas cooktop and the "oven space" below was a cabinet. We rented a Class C with a convection oven, but it was a Microwave/Convection OVERHEAD unit.
Bigger project if space/dimensions aren't right, or there's no Gas Line where you want the Oven.
