Updated R-Pod 179 & Larger Fridge

I took a quick look. If there were outside access to be able to use the extra space behind the microwave in the under the stove version, it might not be so bad, but to lose the whole space is unacceptable.  The low-down microwave would be a show stopper for my wife. Also, I would rather ditch the vacuum than lose the drawer. I could potentially see having the convection microwave in the top part of the pantry, but even that would be sacrificing space.

Originally posted by offgrid I need a vacuum in a camping trailer like a hole in the head.

We have several friends with built-in vacuums in their rigs.. NONE of them complain about it, most rave. I have considered adding one, we have room, and we go to the beach for a month every year.. you wouldn't believe how much sand gets tracked into the camper. We do our best to control it, but basically we are sweeping every day, and shaking rugs and such every other day.. Irish setters seem to just pick it up like velcro, then drop it all over the place later.. LOL When we get home, I spend a couple hours with the dyson on the rugs and crevices, will pick up half a gallon of sand, even though you think it was all clean.. LOL 

For those with presbyopia and a little back pain, the new location of the micro, if you're inclined to use it for more than storage, is going to be a problem; kind of like trying to see the price info on stuff in the supermarkets' lower shelves.
