Just leaving site yesterday and the top draw front came off in my hand.  It had a non slip liner and only light items so no apparent reason exempt fixings leave a lot to be desired.  I have asked for a replacement but have done a very good repair.  I will add some plastic blocks to all draws as a precaution others might do well to inspect there draws.

Now now boaby let's keep it clean! smile!
I must say never had any problem with the drawer fronts on our 2011 Nuevo when we had it. Having said that sometimes on newer models things do not always improve.

Draws:  verb, 3rd person, present.

Drawers, sliding things wot you keep your bits and pieces in.

I've twice had the drawer we keep our cutlery in (plus the contents) shoot out during emergency stops. We have an end kitchen and the drawer in question is the single one adjacent to the habitation door. I adjusted the catch to make it more positive but, imho, the fittings are bordering on the chap and nasty variety. The drawer fronts seem to be well attached to the rest of the drawer structure.  smile!

Hi Pete ours is the top under the sink it has now been taken apart holes filled with splints and glue and resembled .  I believe the drawer catch like yours was not adjusted correctly and allowed stress on the fixings but quality is not sufficient for there positioning.  If you have daylight between drawer front and carcase it's on the way out.

My drawer fronts did not cover the cutouts, and you could see the raw edge of the carcas! At the time I saw it, I had taken delivery and too late to refuse the vehicle. Checked three other new vehicles all had the same problem. AS eventually replaced the carcas after a suggestion that they check their cutting machine settings! Catches have to be checked regularly and be reduced, also buffer strips wear quickly. Just one of the many ongoing "quality" issues. At the end of this year at least anything that needs attention I know what standard that it will be done to as I will have done it myself!
