Hi folks! My wife found a great sink/burner combo in one of her watched sites, but it seems to be a U.K. only thing.
This is what we're looking for, a Dometic SMEV 8821 sink/hob.
Googling this I found only U.K. sites, and they don't want to ship to U.S.
Amazon U.K. has it, but no sellers will ship to U.S.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Have thought about seeing if someone in Britain would buy it for you and then ship it? I have done this with a few items from the UK, Germany and France.
This entered my mind, but I don't know anyone in the U.K.
I thought about putting out a request here, but that's a big ask for a new guy to make.

I found this company located in Washington state but it is quite a bit more than what is listed on the site you provided.

I greatly underestimated my wife's shop-fu. I looked for two days with no results, tonight she managed to find a U.K. source for 320 bucks (American) delivered.

Brett, thanks for the listing! But you're right, those Washington guys are way higher.

No problem. Glad you were able to find what you were looking for at a more reasonable price.

No, I stopped when I looked up the folding faucet (not included) that goes with this. The listing for the faucet says it won't ship outside the U.K.

But, like I said, My wife found a place that will ship to the U.S., 320 bucks delivered.

I do appreciate the effort folks put into looking for a work-around, though.
