Optional window over the sink for 19 foot Escape

Hi there, Our build sheet is due soon! Just wondering if anyone has opinions about the optional opening window by the sink. Is it worth it? If you have any pictures, I'd love to see them too. We are getting the optional bathroom window already.

Thanks in advance!

You will appreciate the window in the kitchen more than the bath. You can see who is at the door and open for air since it is under the awning.

Wouldn't be without the opening window over the sink. Open it just a crack while the fan is on to air out the trailer. Plus, if you don't have your awning out and it's raining, you can open the window without getting everything all wet.

We had the over the sink window in our 19 and loved it. When cooking or doing dishes it was nice to be able to see out.

Big fan of any natural light you can get. I think the bathroom window is worth it too.

Guess I'll weigh in here -- it's a practical option -- let's in air and light and you can talk through the window to those outside when it's necessary. I like the bathroom window too.

It’s also great for passing out condiments and beer to the outside cook at buggy campsites. Scott

Our beer rarely goes inside the trailer. Much handier in coolers outside.

Another vote for YES for the kitchen window...it's under the awning which is really important when its raining.

A beer window is a great feature! How does that work with the screen?

We have the 19' kitchen window in our 21' because it is an awning window. It can be kept open every night whether rain or not. The trailer awning does not need to be out. The Maxx fan is also kept open to take air out, with window letting air in.
