2013 Serenity 23D Interior Efficiency

[Zia]

Some of the ideas in above responses are good.
My two cents: 1)We store heavy pot and pans (my better half is a gourme cook) in the oven. 2)We baught a wire mesh multi draiwer stand from Ikea for one of the closet. 3) We store generator, bulky clothes, wood etc. in the TV. Have three plastic containers to put in the back seat of the TV, 4) dirty closthes sack in the shower, 5) Biult free standing shelving for one overhead where small plastic containers can be stalked, 6) Use plastic bags for the freezer rather than plastic container when feasable.
The round over head with high lips is a issue, however, the Serenity interior is worth it. Use valcro and holders with suction cups to mount on the wall.
Good r'vg

Just wanted to share my latest wardrobe modification, thanks to the Container Store. I bought four of their Like-it Tall Large stacking bins and they are perfect for the larger of the wardrobes in the 23D. I was really excited to find these as it means now I don't have to take the time/energy/drilling into the closets to install custom wire shelves.

I previously had one of those hanging cloth dividers (what you see squashed next to the mattress and this is an enormous improvement!

HI
I am inc. more pics. He uses extension slides so you can pull the drawer completely out for good access. No problems w them coming out during travel. He also put in a drawers under the refrigerator. Also smaller drawers under the range/micro/convection, under the 3 drawers in kitchen. That is 5 new drawers. Shelved one of the closets for our use and moved the light to the side rather than in front in the way. Also a wine drawer below the drawers in bedroom which holds bottles upright. Added dividers in overhead cab' in kitchen and ba. that keep everything organized. The useless bolster behind the short lounge was replaced with a cabinet for the Zip Dee chairs. There was a cab in our previous trailers. A Nice new upgraded floor too! He makes wine glass holders that do NOT come out while traveling. He do sell them too. Replaced the blinds in bedroom with the new European designed shades. They keep out light much more efficiently.Made some changes to the speaker system so we now get surround sound on movies. Added a shelf for the DVD player that folds up for storage. Still a few more things to do.

Thanks for sharing.

The wine drawer w wine in it.
The wine glass holders up close. We do not take the glasses down to travel, never have broken one. We make these to sell.

Great Idea Brad. I never thought of using baskets. We also have those sliding doors that you can see through and I don't like the way everything looks "cluttered" behind them. Thanks for the idea.

Anyone want to share their "baskets", where they purchased, size, etc.?

[Gail Valenti]

Would you send a picture of the red/gray baskets and tell us where you got them, please?

Thanks!
