Class A Kitchen

These are the top of the range kitchen in the world of RVs. They are very luxurious and more spacious as well as the best well-equipped.

The amenities in this class such as the residential appliances and the dishwashers are of five-star rating.

Class As usually are more and perfectly functional for the road given the massive storage and counter space than their counterparts.

Given its huge space, the kitchen is open to load more luxurious accessories and appliances such as the dishwasher, refrigerator, water dispenser, induction cooktops, and microwave oven.

Class B Kitchen

At less than 20 feet long of an RV, every square inch of a class B kitchen is out of the premium. This class is a bit reduced in size unlike in Class A. However if well organized, the kitchen brings out the best.

A key home appliance that misses in this class is an Oven. If you are rolling or planning to roll in Class B, baking comes as a default limitation.

However, this should not make you interrupt your journey as Class B also come with most of the kitchen appliances and accessories only that they come in smaller sizes.

For instance, a single-sink basin instead of a double-basin, a tiny refrigerator and a two-burner instead of three burners.

This class has been designed to accommodate probably just a small family due to its limited and small-sized kitchen amenities.

Class C Kitchens 

In terms of decency, Class C kitchens have very pretty kitchen setups. However, the size of this class is smaller as compared to the enormous class A kitchen.

In order to save space, some models have skipped some kitchen amenities such as the refrigerator and oven hence need to look into them before renting or owning one based on your purpose.

If small is what you desire, Class C is the best for you as it still provides the essential appliances with small, but manageable countertops.

Something to note about these classes is that all floor plans come standard with a kitchen basket, microwave, 3 burner cooktop with an oven, residential refrigerator with an ice-maker and a stainless steel double basin sink.

It’s always nice when things in an RV can serve multiple services. Well, the double bowl sink has got a cover where you can perform other activities when not using the sink.

In addition, when the top is on, you can store accessories that are not in use at the moment.

Fifth-Wheel Kitchen

A 2016 Winnebago scorpion toy hauler, which presents plenty of storage along the wall, residential-sized appliances, double kitchen sink, and a huge counter offers the best example of a fifth wheel kitchen.

As a result of its absolute most living space which extends to the kitchen space, every fifth wheel by default comes loaded with full-size of all typical kitchen appliances such as the dishwasher and a regular refrigerator with an ice maker.
