We're currently looking to replace our free standing double oven cooker with a built under one which is currently between two cupboard units. (We'll refit the worktop to go all the way across and have a separate hob on top)
I don't understand why I can't find a built-under double oven with a main oven as big as our old one. I know that built-in ovens (intended to be fitted higher up in a vertical unit) are too tall to fit under a counter, but all the built-under ones are either only single ovens, or doubles with a small main oven. And in most there is only 1 shelf in the main oven, as they are generally under 50 litres volume.
What I've noticed is that they don't extend to the ground, in order to complete the "built under look" and allow space for the kick board that is under the other cupboards. But why can't I buy one as tall as the free standing cooker we already have (or a couple of inches shorter so that it fits under the countertop) with no space for the kick board?
I don't want the kick board, I want the cooker to stand at floor level, but fit under the counter top. Then the main oven could be bigger than 50 litres.
