Hymers

[billy1000]

Curiosity really, been looking on EBAY and noticed there are usually quite a few Hymers on there for sale. After looking at the spec I never seem to see any mention of an oven in these. I saw one that said it had two hobs but no mention of an oven. Could any of you Hymer owners enlighten me. Do they have ovens in them or not?

Thanks for that guys. Much appreciated.

I'd have to have an oven in mine for my pizza when racing! Mmmmmmm

 

[billy1000]

So would I as I spend my time fulltiming so without an oven it would be U/S.

I must admit to warming the race spark plugs on more than one occasion as the racers engine will not start with the specialist plugs in unless they are well warm

 

[virgil]

If u want to just warm up, then use a microwave!

But a Cornish Pastie or S&K pie or the like go soggy if warmed up in a microwave! Yuk!

depends if right hand drive

Hymer and the other German makes, tend not to have ovens, unless made for the UK market, i.e. right hand drives, we have just recently bought a Niesmann and Bischoff, which has 3 burners and an oven with a grill, but similar german models only have the hob. Good luck with your search, we have just had our first trip away, now complete addicts........

yum yum.....NOT...
we eat stir frys,sandwiches,porridge,omlettes,etc etc from the hob
you could cook at home i.e shepherds pie then warm in micro with a grill,hmmmmm im making myself hungry
we occasionally eat c**p food like noodles & beans.....BORING
but we dont miss the oven at all....

 

[virgil]

We mainly BBQ although I do admit we use a gas one not a genuine charcoal one! It has a Paella type stir fry plate and also a griddle plate that both replace the grill on the top so we tend to do things like BBQ meat with salad, kebabs with salad, stir fried chicken or prawns & onion with rice or cous cous. we tend only to use the inside hob for kettle boiling or warming things through and the oven for baked potatoes or a lovely lasagne.
Cooked breakfasts are usually done on the griddle plate in a morning (the kids love cooked breakfasts as we only have cereal at home!)

 

[billy1000]

What do u want an oven for?
If u want to just warm up, then use a microwave!
If u want to cook a Sunday Joint, U should be at home!
We have no oven, however Kath is an excellent cook & we do not miss it!
Learn to improvise!

I don't get that comment *****. Why, on a Sunday afternoon for arguments sake after a few beers down the pub should I not have a Sunday roast if I wanted it. Besides, I am at home. I fulltime.

My previous 660 Hymer had an oven but we never used it, my present one hasn't an oven but we use a George Foreman for stakes and other meats so the excess fat runs off, we certainly dont miss it. The Hymers build quality is probably one of the best on the road but thats only my view.

oven

Hi all, we have a 544, without the oven, we use bar-b-que, cobb indoor bar-b-que, and the hob, even at open apart from making the loaf of bread and pizza I never use the oven,
in our last camper we had an oven but never used it, I think the idea of all the washing up after in a small space but us off. Also I hate washing up and we always use paper plates when away, finish the meal and put in the bin, saves on water, gas etc. and so much more easy.

we had a Hymer Exsis which came complete with an oven, but have now changed to a Hymer van which doesn't - not that we're bothered!
