Abstract
A range for a recreational vehicle which is adapted to be fit into a simple rectangular opening provided in a kitchen cabinet of the recreational vehicle. The present invention provides a range having a control panel on its front face with notched sides. The notched sides are provided to receive the corners of the countertop to thereby allow the rectangular opening created in the kitchen cabinet to have a simple rectangular shape and to thereby eliminate the labor-intensive process of creating notches in the corners of the countertop. Moreover, by providing the control panel as a piece formed from a unitary sheet of metal, the assembly process for the range is additionally streamlined.
