The Nomad Kitchen Guide
Unsure if the Full Drawer is right for your adventure rig? Need some help figuring out sizing, dimensions, or other fitting considerations? We’re here to help!
-
Compatibility
Fits most SUVs, crossovers, and cargo vans. The kitchen mounts to driver or passenger side and the stove compartment can face either direction, giving you flexibility regardless of your vehicle's layout. If you're pairing this with an Original Series Drawer, the 20" wide drawer is the only size that mounts above or below the kitchen, worth knowing before you order both. Not sure if it fits your rig? Reach out before you order.
-
Mounting & Install
Ships fully assembled with the proprietary strap system included. The straps anchor to your existing tie-down points so no drilling or permanent modifications are required. The bolt-on riser and leveling shim handle tailgates that don't lie completely flat. Setup and teardown take just a few minutes. Make sure your tie-down anchor points are rated to handle the combined weight of the kitchen and its contents.

Modular Setups
The Original Nomad Kitchen is designed to grow with your build. Place it alongside a Camp N Car bed platform, or add one of the Nomad Kitchen Drawers next to it for an even more complete kitchen setup for your adventure mobile. Whether you use it as a companion to camping inside your vehicle or as a handy way to more easily cook food when you're tent camping, this kitchen setup can work wonders for optimizing your setup.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Items like the water tank and internal storage bags are sold separately. Everything else you need to mount and use the kitchen is included, with the optional faucet and stove add-ons.
The stove compartment is sized for standard two-burner camp stoves. Compatible models include several Coleman options, the Triton, Compact, Classic, Cascade Classic, Cascade 222, and Cascade 18. Reach out if you want to confirm compatibility with a specific stove before ordering. We offer the GSI Selkirk 540+ stove as an optional add-on.
Yes, the Original Nomad Kitchen is designed to accept the Dometic Recon 360 Faucet directly, which we offer as an add-on. A water tank and faucet hose extension will need to be purchased separately. It's the cleanest way to add running water to a camp kitchen setup without any custom fabrication.
Yes. The Original Series Drawers are fully compatible and can be added at any time. The 20" wide drawer is the only size that mounts above or below the kitchen, if you want to stack rather than run side-by-side, that's the one to choose. We carry both the Half (7") and Full (14") height options.
The Original Kitchen fits most SUVs, crossovers, and cargo vans. Fit depends on your specific year, make, and model. Reach out before you order and we'll confirm compatibility, it's a quick check worth doing before a purchase like this.
Yes, the kitchen mounts to the driver or passenger side, and the stove compartment can face either direction regardless of how the kitchen is oriented. It's designed to fit the way your vehicle and camping style actually work.
We want you to love what you ordered. If something isn't right, we'll do our best to make it work. The Full Drawer is eligible for return within 30 days of delivery, provided it's unused, in new condition, and in its original packaging with all included items such as hardware, manuals, stickers, the works. A few important caveats: once the mounting hardware has been opened, installed, or even attempted to be installed, the unit can no longer be returned. This is a safety requirement, not a fine-print gotcha. If you have fitment questions before you commit, reach out first, we're happy to help. Approved returns are subject to a 10% restocking fee, and return shipping costs are the customer's responsibility. Original shipping charges are non-refundable. Once your return is approved, you'll have 15 days to get it back to Nomad Kitchen.
The slides of the Half Drawer has been tested to support up to 200 lbs when extended. The exterior shell of the Half Drawer has been tested to support 400 lbs. on top. We do not recommend exceeding the tested weights.
FINAL CONSIDERATIONS
The Original Nomad Kitchen is the foundation of a serious camp kitchen build. It's complete enough to cook on day one and modular enough to grow into whatever setup you want over time. If you have questions about compatibility, stove fit, or how to expand the system, we're one call or email away.
Really helped keep our campsite more organized and provided much needed additional counter space. Fit our 2010 Subaru Forester perfectly.
I LOVE my Nomad Kitchen and used it while living out of my Highlander for a year. I'd recommend it to anyone!
Nomads customer service has been OUTSTANDING and I will be sure to share that with the community.
I was so impressed with their rapid response and personal touch. Nomad is a great company to work with!
This sturdy piece of gear fits like a glove in the back of the adventure trailer and makes for an easy pull-out kitchen. Great work to nomad kitchen co!
