They’re available on the bigger rigs. It’s just worth noting that space on any RV/trailer is a tradeoff, and appliances tend to be limited for space and weight.
Yeah, but it’s different in an RV. With a countertop unit, you’d have to either secure it for travel, losing limited counter space in the process, or find somewhere to stow it, and storage in a camper is already at a premium. There’s also the fact that any form of dishwasher operates on 120vac, meaning you can only use it when you’re on shore power or running a genny (whereas a refrigerator can auto switch between propane and 120v). Again, not saying it can’t be done, but there are logistical concerns that mean dishwashers and other large appliances are the first to be forgone.
Mine just stays on the counter. At the spot it’s in, if I had an accident and it tried to go flying, the wall of the retracted slide room would block it. But in 3 years of driving with it, it hasn’t flown off.
If I ever go that route, you bet I’m getting a dishwasher put in at the very least. I know my limits, haha.

Countertop dishwashers are a thing. I found one that fits on the tiny counter I have, and do my chopping and slicing on the kitchen table instead.
