Outdoor kitchen laminate

Love the outdoor kitchen in our 338db but have noticed a potential problem starting. It appears the counter and everything laminated is starting to swell (maybe its the Florida humidity). Do y'all think this is a warranty issue a little over a year in?

Sounds like you have a leak into the kitchen area. And if so, I would definitely believe it to be a warranty issue. My $.02.

Unless your have had documented leak in the outside kitchen during the warranty period you are likely out of luck with warranty coverage (you mentioned a little over a year in).
If water is getting in, do you know where or how?
I had issues with my outside kitchen door seal early on but replaced the seal and I monitor it closely for water intrusion. So far no problems.
A little more information would be helpful.

It's not localized to one area. Seems the whole counter and auxiliary slide out shelf is just swelling and the edges are no longer nice and neat. Not huge yet but won't be long. Particle board Is probably not the best design for an outdoor kitchen. We only picked it up last July.

If you end up replacing the wood...think marine grade plywood and put the laminate on yourself....and make it a repair that will last
