I cook in the camper. . .and having a sealed cook top helps with the clean up.
That is when the hands free faucet comes in handy as well. Specially when doing dishes.

Thanks for the reply Marc. Looks like we'll include the stove with all the positive replys from other WTW campers.
We usually cook with copper bottom SS... is that cookware ok on the cooktop?

As the official "dishwasher" i opted (with loving support) long ago to use paper. And we can't use the sink for food/cleaning if we want to continue to dump the gray tank in the PNW parks.

My primary reason for getting a camper -- after decades of camping in a tent and canopy and cooking on the tailgate of my truck -- was to be able to cook inside.
I camp in the winter and other times when it's cold/windy, and I got tired of it taking forever for a wind-blown Coleman stove to boil water, etc.
I almost never cook outside now unless I'm using my little Weber table-top gas grill.

Here is a pic of the Webasto cook top in action.

Another example of how good the cook top is:

Yes
I use the bags for the vacuum sealing machine; since you can boil them.
work also for Bolognese; just heat the bag.

I will if I have to but other than making coffee, I normally cook outside. Really depends on whether I'm "camping" or "overlanding".
