Dishwasher

Hi.
I am wondering if anyone has installed a Vesta dishwasher in the Pinnacle 37RSTS.
Any advice on this would be appreciated.
TIA

Considering the weight penalty incurred and the water required, apparently I am the only dishwasher that my 5er needs. Or so says the wife. Installing a dishwasher would require an offset in weight somewhere, perhaps losing the wine closet. (That's NOT gonna happen).

For the few dirty dishes we create a dishwasher would be the last thing I would ever think of installing in a TT.

They have a 5th wheel not a travel trailer. I'm sure they are looking for useful helpful comments. Not that you yourself don't want one and/or need one. They obviously do.

We hate washing dishes so we use plastic plates, plastic wear and paper bowls. If we didn't dry camp so much I'd look into a dishwasher too. We have a washer/dryer already. I would love to have a trash compactor in my 5th wheel.

Kinda but not! No comparison between the two. What's it being a trailer go to do with installing a dishwasher or not?

Just trying to help the original poster out. Apparently they dislike washing dishes too. In the same boat as them. So I feel their pain as well as shared what we do. Major difference from criticism of their choice to want to install one.

People come on here to get help and advice and other ppls experience. Today I couldn't just not say something. If I get banned, I get banned. I will still keep on keeping on.

I don't know what you are rambling about you brought all this up, a trailer is a trailer.

I am sure there is a market for them or they would not be available. I have never heard of anyone having one.

We have some friends who don't cook and she wanted a fifth wheel without a kitchen?

Takes all kinds.

Yes, definitely a demand for them. I see dishwashers in motorhomes and 5th wheels every year at the RV shows I go to. Use to only see them in motorhomes. Now becoming common in 5th wheels. I've also seen built in ice makers and trash compactors.

Only have 1 dishwasher & that is the wife! Seriously we have seen them in both motorhomes & upper end 5vers. Wife mentioned it would be nice to have one but then when she really thought about it, it wasn't worth the time/trouble - just one more thing to "break".

And they are about as big as an RV oven so you would be running it alot.

Designer has them so I want one too! I’m actually considering maybe just getting a “full size” slim portable and putting it at the end of the counter to add counter space as well. There’s quite a bit of free space in the living area on that end, I don’t think the 18x27” will hurt anything but will add nice counter space. It’s either that or put a Vesta in the end of the island on the sink cabinet end to avoid drawers. Wondering if a Vesta will hold enough to be worth it? We will full time with kids so, that’s how I am trying to justify the weight/water/mod drawbacks. I do cringe with the idea of cutting into that beautiful island tho, but I wouldn’t want to give up any cupboards or drawers!
