RV Kitchen Gadgets | Top 10 Best Kitchen Gadgets To Buy Now

Whether you have just spent the day hiking the latest trail, exploring the local town, or swimming in the campground pool, there is always that nagging question that comes up when you return to the camper, “What’s for dinner?”. Finding things to make for dinner can be hard enough throughout the week when you aren’t camping, let alone when you are busy having fun out on the road.

Yah, you can eat out, after all, that’s part of vacation experience, isn’t it, but for those who may like to cook and would rather spend our money elsewhere, having the right RV kitchen gadgets can make your camping experience so much better!

Let’s face it; some RV’s kitchens are tight with no storage or countertop space. In this article, I want to highlight (in no particular order) some of the RV kitchen gadgets that can help make your RV kitchen more efficient and organized.

 

Here is a List of Our Favorite RV Kitchen Gadgets.

#1 Keurig K-Slim Coffee Maker

Now I know you might think, what does a coffee maker have to do with dinner? Some might enjoy a nice hot cup of coffee with dinner. For sure, coffee drinkers have to have their coffee in the morning to get going and hit the road!

For those non-coffee drinkers like me, The Keurig K-Slim Cofee Maker delivers instant hot water for making tea (thus eliminating the need for a tea kettle or pot to heat water) or instant oatmeal. With its slim design (only 5″ wide), it won’t take up space a regular coffee maker needs and has all the features of a regular Keurig.

It uses the regular K-cups and the K-cup universal reusable coffee filter to try that new coffee flavor you found while exploring the local town. So my number 1 product of best RV kitchen gadgets is the K-slim coffee maker.
