We are heading toward the purchase of a Carthago 149 ( arriving in a few months ) and wondered if anyone on this lovely forum has such a van and would be able to tell me if a microwave could be fitted in the cupboard above the sink ? The 150 also shares the same cupboard I believe.

Thanks Roger

Been getting away since 2008
The 149 is a Tourer, the equivalent C Line is a 4.9
If you join the COUK there will definitely be someone in the club that will have either done it or have the necessary advice.

I own a 149 and I would say no. I don’t think the cupboard is high enough for a microwave, unless a tiny one. I can measure up tomorrow if you wish ?

The cupboard above the sink measures 83cms wide, 42 deep, and 42 high
If you took the shelf out, you’d be able to slot a small microwave in there. That Russell Hobbs in the Compactline looks the appropriate size

The Russell Hobbs had a nominal rating of 600W and draws 1Kw. We've used it via a 1500W inverter and a pair of 120AH Lithiums
Excellent we have a 1500w inverter and 230a lithium so should work fine, thank you
