Noovo Closeup: The Kitchen

Let’s get up close and personal with another one of our favorite Noovo areas – the kitchen! In this article, we’ll discuss the ins and outs of the Noovo kitchen space, why it’s important to have a fully-equipped kitchen on the road, and how our builds offer the most cozy, functional, and beautifully designed homes on wheels.

What makes our builds stand out from the rest?

We’re glad you asked! Our builds are made with comfort and functionality in every decision. No matter which features you choose, our team of expert builders will ensure you have all the vanlife essentials for life on the road. A few of our favorite kitchen features are:

A kitchen extension

The kitchen extension is a simple addition to your build, but it’ll make all the difference in turning your kitchen into an even more spacious area for cooking, chopping, cleaning, and serving. We highly recommend adding this on, as it makes the look and feel of your kitchen that much more enjoyable.

An induction cooktop

Get ready to discover your inner Julia Child on the road! The two-burner induction cooktop is a joy to use. It’s simple, heats up quickly and efficiently, and is super easy to clean. Tasty van meals coming right up! Many of our clients have shared that cooking in their Noovo kitchen was one of their favorite vanlife activities. Say goodbye to the old-school propane stoves and enjoy the sleek and modern induction stove in your Noovo van.

Outdoor foldable table

Noovo vans boast an outdoor, built-in foldable table, so your van kitchen extends to the great outdoors! Sip your coffee at sunrise and enjoy dinner at sunset from your stowable front porch table.

Splash-back designs

Noovo vans are known and loved for their beautiful designs. Whenever we’re on the road or showing off our iconic builds at Vanlife gatherings, jaws drop when customers walk through our vans and see our designs. We’re very proud of them! Choose from marble or tiled splashbacks in your kitchen so it’s custom-designed by you and your tastes.

Abundant windows + lighting

Let there be light! Nobody wants to read or cook in the dark. You’ll enjoy ample lighting and ventilation from the abundance of windows throughout the van and warm, adjustable lighting throughout the vehicle that’s easily controlled by the van’s digital panel. Keep them bright for time in the kitchen, and dim them for a cozy movie night.

A deep kitchen sink and pull-out spray faucet

Ahh, the simple things in life! The deep sink allows you to wash as you go, and we all know that’s a must when you transition to tiny living. The spray faucet means you’ll wash up quickly and efficiently with instantly hot water. Now that the dishes are done, what’s for dessert?

Safety first

Noovo vans come complete with an emergency fire extinguisher. Safety first, to enjoy your vanlife worry-free. With ample storage space, it’s always a good idea to keep a medical kit easily accessible as well!

40/40 Water tanks

The beauty of our latest Promaster builds is that they’re built with custom-made 40/40 water tanks. It means traveling with ultimate convenience as you’ll have a 40-gallon freshwater tank and a 40-gallon greywater tank, including a display monitor to show you how soon you’ll need to fill back up the fresh and empty your grey. You’ll have plenty of water to use for everyday washing and cooking without worrying about filling up too frequently.

Keep it chilled

Small but mighty, you’ll be surprised how much can actually be stored in your Noovo fridge and freezer combo! Use it to stock up on groceries or store your meal preps throughout the week, allowing you to save money on eating out in restaurants.

In our latest Noovo upgrade, we’ve put the fridge at an even more desirable height for better access and ease on your back (an awesome request by our community!) Check out the newest Noovo build and all its exciting new features while you’re here!

Generous storage space

There’s no shortage of drawer and cabinet space in a Noovo van. No matter how much gear you’re bringing, rest assured you will have space a-plenty for all your clothes and toys, as well as the necessary kitchen gadgets, cookware, and ingredients!

Dinner with a view

Chances are you decided to pack up your life into a van for the love of the outdoors (that’s why we did it!) The abundance of kitchen and living space windows means every night you can wine and dine with nature’s finest views. Whether towering peaks or a mountainous stream are out your door, there’s something so special and memorable about dining in the great outdoors. You’ll make memories that will last a lifetime as you enjoy your van-cooked meals!

Practical for daily use

Comfort and convenience are our priorities. Having a fully-equipped kitchen– including mess-free induction stovetop, easy-access fridge, and convenient microwave– means you don’t have to worry about finding a place to eat out every day, and you can commit to nutritious meals cooked with love. You can whip up a delicious, van-cooked meal in your personal kitchen whenever you feel like it! No more Denny’s stops or unhealthy fast food when traveling through small town U.S.A – just delicious, balanced meals that you’ll feel proud of making for yourself!

Get Creative

You can experiment with different locally sourced ingredients and recipes. Stock up your van drawers with all the essentials like spices, flour, and oils. Meal-prep and stock your refrigerator with healthy alternatives to fast food you’ll usually find on your drive.

Save Money

Dining out is enjoyable, but it can empty the wallet quickly! Having a fully-equipped kitchen in your van allows you to save money by cooking meals at home instead of going out every night. Plus, meal-prepping will save you loads in the long run. Instead, you can use that money towards experiencing awesome outdoor activities with your van! Having a fully-equipped kitchen is an essential part of living the Vanlife. It provides convenience, nutritious, healthy meals, and the opportunity to get creative in your home on wheels.
