My unit is a 2009 Chateau Citation, but this mod could help others with the Dometic stove. The kitchen cabinet came with a tilt out drawer front below the stove similar to a tilt out below a sink with a little bin to hold a small item or two. When you look under the stove there is actually a lot of room there and the components of the stove do not stick down much.
I built a drawer box the same size as the two original drawers below and added some inside cabinet structure to support the new drawer slides. To allow for the stove parts I cut out the drawer back a little as needed, but there is still plenty of room in the drawer. I used dovetail corners because I like doing them, but that is not necessary -- just make a simple drawer box. I included slots to accommodate a partition or two. Then I just reused what had been the tilt down to make the drawer front. This is a very nice mod making this otherwise wasted space quite useful.
