need help finding best option for double wall oven

7 years ago

We just bought this house and plan to install a new kitchen - some things we have considered are smaller island and moving the slider door to the right by about 3ft - we are replacing the deck in the spring and it seems to be an easy move.

The one thing I want for the new kitchen is a double wall oven and induction cook top - would love to know what others think would work the best in this space to make that happen.

Possibilities are :

1. Move sliders 3 ft to the right, oven could go at the end of the section to the right of the sink

2. Install a corner cabinet, to the right of current stove space and left of the sink, to house wall oven

3. Install wall oven to the left of where the current stove is and shift everything right a bit

4. Reconfigure wall that fridge is currently on to have fridge on the left, wall oven on the right and small counter/cabinet space or pantry in the middle or fridge and oven side by side and pantry on the left end.

Would love your input and welcome other ideas/possibilities - thank you for your time :)

First, I suggest you live in the house for a few months. Get a feel for what works and what doesn't. Second, hire a kitchen designer. You will not regret it and I promise you they will save you from making costly mistakes.

No corner cabinet! I would move the slider the 3' that you already mentioned but use that space for your fridge. Put your double ovens where your fridge is currently. Nice flow for work space and ovens are out of the way. Fridge will be easy to access, and no one has to walk through the kitchen to get to it. This is close to how I have designed my own kitchen to be (no wall ovens)...reno starting soon :)

Moving the sliders will be very expensive and a fridge next to a sliding glass door would be odd. I would just remove the cabinets to the left of your fridge and put it there.

I like luckyblueeye’s suggestion and agree with Sina - no to the corner cabinet. I wouldn’t do a straight replacement of the cabs to the left of the fridge with the ovens because you don’t have a landing spot for items removed from the oven (especially if someone is sitting at the island!!) Possibly you could do your option 4 but I would need to know the relevant dimensions to say for sure. Same with your option 3.

Sina’s other suggestion to live with it for awhile and see what you like/dislike is good!!

How about double ovens where the stove is now...no rewiring (I don't think). Your cook top could be in the island or beside the refrigerator.

Or you could just replace the existing stove with a double-oven induction model: GE CHS995SELSS
