⚠️ IMPORTANT — Recall History Disclosure
Buyers should understand the recall history of this cooktop family:
- Original model: Suburban 3031AST (also known as SDS2)
- These original 3031AST units were subject to a recall
- Units that have been reworked to address the recall issue are now designated as the 3334AST
- The 3334AST designation confirms the recall issue has been resolved on these units
Also known as SDS2. All 3334AST units offered here are post-recall reworked and safe for use.
Compact Design for Small RV Kitchens
Purpose-built for space-constrained RV kitchens:
- Vans
- Small trailers
- Truck campers
European construction adds a stylish, quality-forward aesthetic to your kitchen area.
Sealed Burners with Recessed Grates
- Two 5,800 BTU sealed burners — prevents liquid from seeping into hard-to-clean places
- Dual black enamel grates — clean individually
- Recessed grates below the cooktop — keeps spills from spreading across the counter surface
⚠️ Low-Pressure Propane REQUIRED (11" W.C.)
This cooktop requires low-pressure propane (11" W.C.) for operation. This is achieved with a low-pressure regulator, which is standard/required on all RVs.
If you're installing in a setup without a pre-existing RV propane system, you'll need to establish a low-pressure propane system before use.
⚠️ BTU + Elevation Considerations
Understanding RV cooktop performance:
- RV cooktops are smaller than household models — less heat output than large household burners (which average ~10,000 BTU)
- Rated for elevations up to 4,500 feet
- Above 4,500 feet: BTU output reduces by ~4% for every 1,000 feet
- Example: At 8,500 feet, cooktop performs ~16% below rated BTU
Elevation performance reduction is due to reduced oxygen in the air and changes in the air/fuel mixture — a physics limitation, not a defect.
AA-Battery Electric Ignition
Electric ignition powered by AA batteries — no external power source required at the cooktop. Battery replacement is a simple periodic maintenance task.
⚠️ NO Thermocouple Safety Shut-Off
This cooktop does NOT include thermocouple safety shut-off. If the burner flame goes out (from spillover, wind, etc.), gas will continue flowing. Do not leave the cooktop unattended while running.
