One of the best aspects of caravanning is having a mobile kitchen.
However, sometimes it feels more like a curse when you’re stuck indoors while the rest of the family sits outside. Using your caravan oven inside can be hot, exhausting and leave your camping vehicle smelling like a Bunnings sausage sizzle.
A caravan slide-out kitchen is a perfect solution.
Simply pull this appliance out from the side of your van. Then you can create a feast without feeling cramped and uncomfortable. In this guide, we’ll look at some of the best caravan slide-out kitchens today.

Dometic Large Slide-Out Kitchen
Best For RVs
Dometic produces some of the best caravan slide-out kitchens on the market.
Their target market for this premium option is large caravans and RVs. This is a sizeable pull-out unit with a lot of storage space (640 x 335 x 1670mm). It has dual-side access so that it maximises its use of space and has a pull-out drawer.
Meanwhile, it has an impressive three gas burners and a large food preparation area.
This is more than many caravan kitchens have inside. You’ll be able to cook up a storm with multiple pots and pans on the go at the same time. Indeed, it’s the perfect size for a family of four or five.
It’s also made from high-quality stainless steel and aluminium. The latter is light whereas the former is more sturdy and durable. This large caravan kitchen weighs 44kg so it won’t be suitable for all camping vehicles.
Furthermore, it’s expensive coming in at a bit under $3,000 (with a 1 year warranty). We’re not saying this doesn’t represent good value because it’s an excellent appliance. However, many customers won’t feel the need to spend this much.
