8289ws storage compartment doors

We are picking up camper next week. I need to take along some plastic storage tubs, want to store in front compartment. Does any one know the dimensions of the compartment doors. The brochures and online don't show me.

Thanks

Randy

8289ws storage compartment opening sizes:
Right side (Entry) storage compartment door opening is 18" W x 23.5" H...floor to overhead plumbing clearance is approx. 17.5"
Left side (Hook-ups, WH, Ext. Shwr) storage compartment door opening is 38" W x 23.5" H...floor to overhead plumbing clearance is approx. 18.5" (15.5" to shower trap).
FYI: 20 3/8" from floor to bottom of aluminum joists throughout compartment.
At WalMart I found Sterlite 27qt. ClearView Latch storage bins and 15qt ClearView Latch storage bins (double stacked are same height as 27qt).
They're clear so you can see what's in them and they fit perfectly along the front of the compartment clearing the shower trap, leaving plenty of room to the rear for other bulky items.
Hope this helps!

Kirk Sr,

Thanks for the detailed reply. That helps a lot. We just picked up our new 8289 today at RVW and are heading back to Texas. Will stop by a Walmart and pick up some of those storage containers.
Again thank you.

Randy
