Can we put a built in under the worktops?

[Crystaltips2]

We have accidentally bought a built in electric double oven, but it fits almost perfectly under the worktop, opens fine and is a great size.

Is it safe to not have loads of space around? There is a big gap either side, just not above or below.

The fact there is gaps around it wont matter at all so you'll be fine

As above, but it might be a little awkward getting stuff in and out.

Built in built under...same animal..different configeration...Will they not change it?

The door opens fully. The face plate doesn't fit under the worktop, but it doesn't look weird at all.

Really, I'm only worried the heat might crack the tiles because there's no gap?

Hmmm...There's a possibility that it might cracked after so many times of using.
