Utility of kitchen/bathroom window for E19??

Hello, hope everyone is staying safe. We are working on the details of our new E19 for an April '21 pickupl. We plan to mainly use the E19 for off-grid camping in prov/national parks, with most cooking outside and using shower buildings. We wont have an AC so extra light will come from the vent above Any thoughts or comments on the utility of adding a kitchen and/or bathroom window would be most welcome! Thanks! Cliff

We have both in our 19’. It’s nice to have kitchen window to look out while cooking, doing dishes. The bathroom is handy to stick a hose through. Would choose kitchen if only getting one.

Limited utility

It can allow a breeze or air ingress or ehhaust, but I'd suggest getting it for.....any outside view and additional light it will provide.

Bath window for natural light and ventilation is really nice and I highly recommend. I added one aftermarket so I know what it’s like with and without.

There are times when being able to crack the bathroom window with the exhaust fan on come in handy.

Many things you can add later but the windows are best ordered from the factory. Even with both windows my wife finds the center of our 19 darkish. If I had my way the kitchen window would be 4 times the size.

Agreed. Aftermarket install not impossible but best would definitely be from the factory. The bath window retrofit is quite challenging with the inner bath lining, outer shell and airspace in between to deal with.

Get both windows. Your brand new trailer is not something you want to make compromises on or scrimp on what will make it amazing. Starbuck lattes, fancy shoes, unnecessary gadgets maybe, but not your trailer :P
