corner cabinet double oven

8 years ago

We are doing kitchen remodel. The double oven will be in a corner cabinet. How much space do I need to allow for this cabinet if the oven is 51.7"tall 29.7" wide and 23.8"deep? I have seen these on pictures on your sight but cannot find specs and I need to order the counter top in order to get it in time for the remodel July 5th.

Thanks

Darlene

    We need to not encourage poor design and IMO angled kitchen cabinets are a waste of space and always awkward to work in.Who is doing your kitchen design / That is the persone to ask

    Terrible design. Huge amount of wasted space. A 33” oven cabinet will eat up 48” on each side of the corner.

    Get a better design. And a better Kitchen Designer.

    Agree with everyone. We discourage this design at all costs.

    You're ordering countertops but you haven't ordered your cabinets yet? This is backwards.

    You may be backed into a corner - design wise. It doesn't have to be soo bad.

    Your cabinet provider must know the specs needed or that person is not trustworthy.

    You have seen pictures on Houzz, but can't find specs? Do you realize that most of the photos you see, the cabinets were designed for the specific space and appliances, so their specs would not really help you.

    I just did a corner sink (note to the peanut gallery ;-) we had no other spot & I worked with a very good KD) and the cabinet was custom built to fit the space and my sink. It was a 6 sided angled cabinet and the specs would be useless to anyone else.

    You can't order counters before your cabinets are installed!

    Thank you, I was just looking for a standard 30" double oven, not a cabinet but built in, I know they are to heavy and have to have supports.

    Thanks for all your comments. My kitchen is very large and I've always wanted a double oven in my corner so it's not a waste of space for me. Right now that corner has a counter top with trash and recycle cans under it and they will be under our new island. I found a picture of one on this site with stone as the walls around the ovens and it's exactly what we are doing. I've found my answers, thanks again!

    I didn't put all the details in my initial question, we do have the cabinets just building the structure for the wall double oven and since we're tearing everything out I was just wanting an opinion on this build.

    If you have the space it totally can work because only one person at a time ever accesses the oven. And having counter space close by to put trays and roasting pans on can be convenient. Ovens with side opening doors will be easier for you to get things in and out. For those open the pdf for installation. It'll have all the dimensions. Send that pdf to your cab maker or whoever is building so he can configure the cabinet based on whether it's frameless etc. Two to consider are the Gaggenau 400 Series single oven and 400 Series Combi-Steam oven. Both are available with left or right hinge door with automatic open with a touch. Bosch also make side opening 30" ovens. Miele makes excellent Combi-Steam ovens.

    Install Combi-Steam

    Install single wall oven

    Wow dan1888, your information was great, thank you. If I needed someone and you were in the area I'd choose you!

    Rosenhaus Design Group...I sure didn't mean to offend you, didn't know this was just for professionals. My husband, a professional in my opinion, has re-built both of our houses and I was just trying to help him out with suggestions concerning the corner ovens. Sorry for the bother

  • 8 years ago

    The interior cabinet measurements are included in all of the various ovens's installation instructions. Once you pick the oven stack, you'll know what specs are required.

    I never thought of that until dan1888 mentioned it. Thank you

    Alku05 has a corner oven cabinet. I'll look for one of her threads, if they're still available. I think, though, that you need something like 4' on each wall, but I'll see what I can find.

    For me, the biggest objection is that if you have any appliances/sinks on either side of a wall oven (corner or not) the food has to be carried around that obstacle rather than moved along the counter. Wall oven should be at the end of workspaces, not in the middle.

    Found one! (Google is so useful, especially now!)

    It's not a "corner cabinet", it's a regular 33"W oven cabinet angled and recessed in the corner. It takes up 48" on each side of the corner.

    I have double ovens in a corner in my kitchen. My cabinet is 31.5” wide and 25.5” deep . It is does not flare out like most of the corner arrangements I saw pictured online. It ends up being recessed from the countertops on each side of it. I have angled cabinets on each side of the ovens.

    The lower cabinets on each side of the oven cabinet have piano hinged doors on them for easier access.

    I was surprised how many things I could put into those angled cabinets. I don’t feel like I’m losing much counter space even though they angle back. The angled areas holds things like a knife block and electric wine bottle opener. I do agree that in most instances corner oven cabinets waste a lot of space. The way mine is designed I doesn’t think it wastes that much space.

    That's really nice, I love the piano hinge idea. My kitchen is fairly large, 20x15 and I've always wanted a double oven as I do much baking! Thanks for sharing this and the dimensions.
