Coffee maker is a given for us - we have DH's regular 12-cupper and my Keurig. We also have a crock pot, hand mixer, toaster, an electric waterless-cookware pan, and I think I'm going to grab our countertop grill (like a Foreman) next time we're home.

Coffee pot, stick blender (doubles as a small chopper), crock pot, hand mixer, toaster oven, coffee grinder, and ice maker. Bread maker for pizza dough. These are the small appliances we have used and needed for snowbirding for the winter. It's all worked great.

Farberware stove top coffee pot when boondocking and their electric 8 cup version. I think we'll also start carrying the FoodSaver vacuum sealer for trying to save space in the freezer. Bob

Oh yes, we also have an electric hot-water kettle that I call my hot pot, it boils water very quick.

As you can see it depends on what your preferences are. It also depends on what season your cooking. Summer time I like to cook outside, but in the winter cooking inside heats up the rv in addition to providing a meal. I also like to cook so a dutch oven is a must.

Pour hot water and coffee grounds into french press, then push down the plunger to strain the grounds out. Makes an awesome cup of coffee.
Anybody watch Dexter on HBO?

My Class A is only 31 ft. long. Where would I put all
these neat gagets? The drain board next to the sink
is only 16" long. I would need a 45 ft. MH.
And my part time job at min. wage, and at age 69,
will not get me the bigger MH real soon.

Oh well.

Are asking where they go when in motion or when camping? Our MH is only three feet longer but with a little work you can find some amazing dead space in the rig! Multiple false panels, drawers that are only 3/4 as long as the cabinets, etc. I extended the drawer slides to full out(used from a guy having new kitchen installed in stick house- free) am currently working on making the shelves next to the fridge into a full slide out pantry, have to make a few cuts but should add space.
