Replacement Princess Stovetop

Post by rlys »

Has anyone replaced their factory installed stove in the galley? Looking for a recommendation of one that is similar in size etc. Thanks!

We replaced our faulty Princess cooktop in 2016 with a Thetford Spinflo-Topline Cooktop. This 2 burner LP gas cooktop is better built, more reliable, easy to clean and wonderful to cook on (compared to the Princess). The cutout hole needed minor modifications. It is often found in high end motor homes

We just recently came across another alternative that looks and works great:
A Furrion 3 burner cooktop for less than $300.
Had to modify the cutout but other than that an easy install.
