Countertop height is 35.25", slide in range min height 35.5"?

2 years ago

We are renovating our kitchen and putting in a porcelain countertop. The porcelain is thinner than quartz; we're getting a 2cm thick porcelain versus the standard 3cm/1.25" for a typical countertop. This means that when all put together, our countertops will sit at 35.25" from the floor. We had chosen the Bosch HII8057U slide in range. It has a larger capacity, plus a warming drawer, and is slightly more affordable when compared to the freestanding Bosch ranges. The range's minimum height for the surface is 35.5".


The range has a slight overhang to cover the gap between the range and the cabinet. This was also a selling point for me, but slightly less important than the larger oven capacity and warming drawer. But with the thinner countertop, there's a quarter inch gap between the overhang and the countertop. Has anyone dealt with this before? I agonized over the range decision, and now that I've made it, I don't want to have to go back and choose again if I can help it, but I don't know if this will be bothersome!
