Maybe daft questions but here we go. When you are travelling to a site how do you secure things that are kept in cupboards or do you empty everything out and place over the axles. (Such as tinned food). My next question is Pots and pans. Do you use normal household pans and plates or lightweight stuff. I have plastic plates from my camping days but surely food tastes better on proper plates.

as was being mentioned in another thread....do the designers actually use these vans?..
...is they did then (as alluded to above) they would provide safe, secure, low down storage in their beutifully designed MH/caravan kitchens?
most uk MH (and im guessing caravans, too) dont have decent under kitchen storage, bcause thats where the obligatory oven and small fridge usually go.....
...so where is one supposed to put the larger/heavier stuff like crockery, plates, cups, bowls, and pans, and tinned goods and cereal boxes, and condiments and sauces, and your kettle(s) (electric and hob), teapot and filter jug and waste bin....etc, etc...
presumeably, where you dont want them....
...under beds and seats? (have to move them all to the kitchen before you can use them...)
....in overhead lockers (just waiting to crown you)
.....or in the car if you dont want to take the risk
why not fit decent deep, large, drawers with moveable dividers just like the ones in most folk have in their home kitchens.....ideally, with a (central) locking mechanism....
why, eshew drawers that give great storage and easy access and put in shelves....(have you noticed that all the stuff is always at the back where you cant reach it) ......accessed by a cupboard door (have you noticed how its always a right pain to open when you're standing in the gangway...).....
....and worse, when there is one 'drawer' about 2" deep (that holds next to nothing) but you still have to open the 'cupboard door' that covers it in order to open the drawer a few inches.....
answer.....because its miles cheaper.... ....and designers dont use the things they 'design'.....

We have Correlle, 4 dinner plates and side plates 4 bowls, they sit in a rack in a top cupboard, IMO they are much better than using melamine, (which we did use for years) really tough, can be used in the microwave and light. Never heard of them until someone mentioned them on CT.
