What does the Slide Kitchen do?
The back of the van is the best seat in the house: doors open, view in front, feet on the ground. The Slide Kitchen puts your kitchen right there. It lives inside the rear section of the bed, in place of the storage door, and pulls out of the rear door(s) when you stop: a bay for a two-burner camping stove, compartments for your pans, mugs and spices, and a chopping board that slides along its groove to reveal the food storage beneath. Pull the second stage out at the end for one more drawer and somewhere to put down your cup. Slide it back in and the kitchen is packed for the road.

What does the Slide Kitchen work with?
Every Slide configuration
Slide Standard, Slide Standard Bench and Slide Compact Bench.
The Gliss family
The Slide Kitchen and the Gliss Rear drawer pull out from under the rear section, so it’s one or the other, in place of that section’s side drawer: the Gliss 70 drawer on Slide Standard and Slide Standard Bench, the Gliss 110 drawer on Slide Compact Bench. On Slide Standard, the Gliss 110 drawer still fits under the 110 cm section.
Kits that include it
The Trekker, and the Deluxe versions of the Weekender, the Weekender XL, the Minimalist, the Drifter, the Voyager and the Legend. Not compatible with the Cruiser: its K5 rear kitchen sits in that spot.
Please note: the Slide Kitchen is made for left-hand-drive vans only.
