hi
thinking about getting that model above for my camper.
They have them at Withworth Marine, left a good pression.
If you are using one, would you recommend them?
Are the three burners useful? Have the feeling there is not
enough space to handle three pans anyhow, but then the two burner
on the other side looks like unused space, to big for only two burners
How about the ones from Dometic?

I have been using a SMEV two burner for about six months. Does the job
well and fits a kettle and frying pan
well.
Can be a bit of a problem in windy conditions if not using the awning so have fashioned small aluminium wind break for sides and front that solves the problem.

I have the Smev 3 burner in my Quantum. Fits 2 large pans easily but the 3rd can be a squeeze. Medium size pans all fit easy enough, besides its not that often I use 3 pans.
Wind can be an issue, a windbreak is supplied with the Quantum and while it helps, strong winds can be an issue - but then its not only the hotplate thats a problem in strong winds. Overall very happy with it. Easy to keep clean compared to the Coleman/Primus type cookers.
Cheers
Captain
