The kitchen is now in one of the pullouts minus a stove and microwave. The reason the stove and microwave aren't in the same pullout is unfortunately because of height limitations. The whole thing needs to be under 7' to go under the garage door and that means the height for the trailer will be something like this:
12.5" to trailer deck
.75" flooring
3" slide system
.75 flooring
So already we're looking at about 17" for just the slide system.
Since we have 17' total that gives us only about 64"' to work with because I need about 3" for the roof.
Counters are commonly set at 36" high and it's recommended to have 16" between your range and the microwave. The installation directions for the microwaves says you need 66" from the floor to the top of the microwave so they're actually figuring 14" of space over the range.
So there's the problem there... 36(counter) + 14(space) + 16(microwave) = 66" and that's without even space for somewhere to get power to the microwave.
So I can either move the microwave elsewhere or I can lower the counter. I'm not totally opposed to lowering the counter 2" but I want to see how this is once it's in place to see if my measurements are right.
