Personally I would not get rid of wall ovens and get a range, nor would I get a microwave hood combination. The range gives you more counter space than a cooktop+wall oven combo but the amount of storage is about the same since you get deep drawers under the cooktop.

I'd recommend you post the full floor plan with dimensions and see if folks can come up with a solution. If you are short on storage I'd be looking for ways to put in a pantry.

Post your full floor plan with dimensions and your whole space downstairs to see what we can come up with. Be sure to include all windows, doors, etc.

I would never in a zillion years do a microwave hood. It's not efficient and it is too high and cumbersome to use in that spot. Not to mention dangerous.

Without more information (e.g., the layout CPArtist requested), we cannot give you more than general advice - which may or may not apply to your situation.

Please post the layout, etc., as requested by CPArtist . Here's a link that will help you with that:

Double ovens in a small/medium kitchen, I don't see the benefit compared to the lost counter space in most cases.
