RV REVIEW
5. LET’S COOK
It takes longer to select the perfect campsite
than it does to set up camp and get cooking
in this unit. The overhead awning winds out
easily and the stainless steel kitchen slides out
and pivots parallel to the van’s side. Pull out
the secured fridge slide for the optional 85L
EvaKool dual-zone fridge-freezer and you are
set for a stay in less than three minutes.
The kitchen features a three-burner cooktop,
a stainless steel sink with hot/cold running
water, a pair of utensils drawers, and a fold-
out stainless bench either side. There’s also a
pull-out pantry and all external compartments
feature strong dust and water-proof automotive
seals with lockable compression locks.

SUMMING UP
The Alpine 1400 is nicely trimmed and
appointed. The gloss white trim is softened by
grey laminate feature panels, faux timber floor
and a fawn leatherette settee. There’s a large
storage/multi-function area with a vanity-style
bench with an internal sink with hot/cold mixer,
plenty of drawers and overhead cabinets.
Altitude Campers is extending its range
to include the Alpine 12, 16 and 18 but the
1400 would be a worthy companion for your
offroad travels.
