RV REVIEW
Because there are no internal cooking facilities, the SRS 9 is equipped with a Dometic slide-out kitchen, which includes hot / cold water( a Fogatti instant hot water service is standard), gas burners and a cutlery drawer. One thing I like about this unit is that it’ s selfsupporting on it’ s slide-out tracks – no need to add additional supports. You do, however, need to connect the gas line to the bayonet coupling, as well as connect the water lines.
Speaking of water, the SRS 9 comes standard with a 120L fresh water tank; however, a grey water tank isn’ t included, nor does it have a conventional sullage outlet. The reason: the kitchen and shower are external. The shower floor has a drainage point from which you could run a hose, and you could easily collect the sink water in a bucket.
Despite the compact nature of the SRS 9, it doesn’ t‘ feel’ sparse on the outside, or as though the important stuff has been overlooked for the sake of keeping the cost low. There’ s a checker plate storage box on the A-frame, behind the spare wheel, with gullwing and side doors. There’ s a fold-down picnic table and a couple of 12V / USB points too.
The fact the awning offers so much under-cover outdoor space is brilliant. The wrap-around nature of the awning means that you are protected from the sun or rain when you step outside the van’ s rear door.
