I have the kitchen in the slide and was worried but I just inspect the hoses when I first got it and once a year, 5 years now and no problems. I will only have a TT with the dinette on the awning side, I can see my site, kids playing, everything going on. Most TT can't see there own site while in the camper, and are looking at there neighbors when indoors. This also usually means that the exhaust from the fridge and water heater are not under the awning, so if you dry camp this is nice.
The only downfall is I have not seen a super slide with the kitchen in the slide, only the narrow slides.
