What sink & hob to get & where?

Post by **little.legs** » 27 Oct 2008, 21:03

My bus came without any form of kitchen unit. It had rotted so the previous owner had thrown it out & never replaced it. I want to put one in but am lost as to choice. Ideally we want 3 burners and a sink, not bothered for a grill.

The other problem is that my bus is a walk through and has a 3/4 rock and roll bed and so has limited space at the bed end. I have looked at combination units and er indoors likes the Smev ones with the glass lids. Anyone any suggestions of model to go for and/or reasonable place to buy?
Cheers
Jamie

Hi Jamie, nice to have another wessie here.
speak to Ken Carter at Magnums

I dont think you will get cheaper, its a quick drive along the slab, get a combi 3 burner and sink smev. he keeps most of it in.
Why 3 burner?

Her indoors wants a 3 burner cos she likes to have a few pans on the go when we go off.

She reckons its a bit more usable with 3.

She may settle for a 2 burner and grill.
Cheers
Will try magnum.

A grill opens up a whole world of cheese on toast.

If you want to go cheep, I'll sell you a used combi unit for £25. Leaving you more money to spend on beer and petrol!
I think its the same as this one.

You gotta have a grill

cheese on toast is essential when camping

quick, easy, little mess and GREAT AFTER BEER

You will never have thick slices of bread toasted piping hot with knobs of butter scattered over it, smell it now!

Never have rich tasty Branston beans on toast.

Never have crumpets lightly toasted, buttered with fresh honey drizzled over them.

See you have to have a grill! or dont you like the above?

Hi Sarah - Yes it's a grill and small oven (Smev again). Got it cos I had no grill having the combi unit. Cooked bread in it! Does chips v well.

thats great, think that may have to be another item on my christmas list then

Should have said before Tigs, that really is a lovely interior, very well done. Did you do it yourselves? What did you use for your worktop? Everything i've looked at so far seems to thick (and heavy

) could I be cheeky and ask what it is and where you got it from??

I can only hope to achieve a finish that good!!

Thanks Sarah - A guy in our local club is a kitchen/bedroom manufacturer. He kitted out part of his bay as an experiment but Sharkey was the first full interior he did
