Thread: Slide out kitchen options

I looked at the chinese ebay jobs but not really what i'm after, i reckon diy is only way to get what you want or you buy a drifta.

Im not really wanting to buy chinese without seeing what the quality is like.
This would be what Im looking for.

That's not a bad looking kitchen Andrew. The only thing I would ask if it's imported, and thus what grade stainless is it made from.

From what I've seen, most imported stainless doesn't seem to be up to par on the quality stakes. Being so cheap, I doubt its made here. That's not necessarily a bad thing, just means you need to take care, keep it clean and dry when you can.

In our camper, the stainless is prone to rusting easily, which can be annoying as it looks unsightly. If I could tig weld, I'd be making my own replacement unit.

it is possible to MIG weld SS.... not quiet at pretty but it'll get the job done.

Andrew,

Drifta make excellent pull-out kitchens.
? CAMPER TRAILER KITCHENS ? Drifta Camping & 4WD
They are not stainless but are good quality and made in NSW. May be useful for you that Drifta can customise to your exact requirements.

I have a stainless pullout in my camper trailer. It's chinese and so far has been excellent. It came with the trailer so can't help with suppliers of stand-alone kitchens.

Cheers,
Scott

Hi Andrew. It looks OK ... But I'm with Scott. The Drifta DPOR at $990 is better value for money IMHO. We were very critical of how much bench space CT kitchens DON'T have. A lot of offerings out there lack decent prep' space ... Which is why the current KK kitchen bench appealed to us. Nothing worse than trying to prepare a meal on the back of a postage stamp!

Yeah, I know DB, and I could pull out the Stick and use that too, but if one plays ones cards right, maybe one can buy himself a little Caddy

With the Mig, I think it might be a bit expensive to do the swap over thing for the amount I'm going to use it too.

If you go gassless, then just buy a kitchen it will be cheaper :P but if you get gas, although still not really cheap it's a better economy. O yea stick can do it too.... I forgot about that.

Back on track though, sorry guys. I'm loving the look of the drifta swing out DSO. I'm thinking of making my own version of it to suit my No5 trailer.
