Can wall oven be installed under cooktop?
Hi! I am looking to install a wall oven under a cooktop. The
cooktop's dimension is 2 inches height, with a cutout clearance below cooktop of 4.5". The wall oven has height of 29 1/16 inches, with a cutout height of 27 1/4". I understand standard base cabinets comes in about 34". If I add the height of the cooktop + the clearance + wall oven height, that would come out to be a little over 35.5 inches, 1.5 inches taller than the base cabinet height. So it would seem that this would not work. However, I looked through the Sears.com site and am not able to find a shorter wall oven. So my question: is it not possible to install wall oven under cooktop w/o custom-made cabinets? I see a lot of houses, as well the Sears show-room, with this setting. How are they done? thanks, - Liz |

I can't tell for sure, but it doesn't look like an induction cook surface either. And to compound your problem further, you really don't have 34 inches for a cabinet height. There is a four inch toe kick at the bottom, so you really only have 30 inches for most standard kitchen counter heights. If you have really seen an induction cooktop over a wall oven, I'll be surprised. There's three basic types of oven range combinations; free standing, slide-in, and drop-in. After that, there are cooktops and wall ovens. I tried searching for an induction range/oven combination and came up as short as you seem to have. -- Grandpa |

You are right on this one, it has enough detail to show that you have an oven unit under a cook top. Still doesn't look like an induction cooktop though. IIRC, they are a bit deeper than most, which could interfere with putting an oven underneath. It looks very similar to the oven in the kraftmaid site; have you been able to find that particular oven? -- Grandpa |

Yes, it is possible. In your case, if the counter height is 36" and you have a standard 4" kick then you have (36-4) = 32" of space. You need 2"+4.5" for the cooktop so you now have 25.5" for your oven. You need 27.25" for oven so that one won't fit...you are shy by (minimally) 1.75". I can think of two solutions... 1. Reduce the size of the toe kick in the oven area or raise the counter height. 2. Get a shorter oven. Here is a site with many... http://www.ajmadison.com/b.php/Titan...all+oven;Nao~2 0;Nty~1;N~0 Here are a few specific one from that site (there are many more) http://www.ajmadison.com/cgi-bin/ajm...BL5035AUC.html http://www.ajmadison.com/cgi-bin/ajm...ECS136SBK.html http://www.ajmadison.com/cgi-bin/ajm...30SO75ESS.html http://www.ajmadison.com/cgi-bin/ajm...JW7530DDB.html http://www.ajmadison.com/cgi-bin/ajm...JW7530DDB.html ****************** Like others, I suggest you give some real thought to locating the oven in its own cabinet. Under the cooktop they are hard to see into, hard to reach into. Both are *much* easier when the oven is higher. If you bake, you have pans. You need a pan drawer. Those under ranges are woefully insuffucient...if you have a wall oven cabinet you can have a generouslly sized one - one that is tall enought to stand trays and pans vertically. Yes, you would lose counter space. Or would you? Are you planning a countertop microwave? It could be placed in the wall oven cabinet. If not - or if you prefer it on the counter - a toaster and/or coffee maker could be placed on a shelf above the oven. In either case, you reclaim counter space. You would also gain a LARGE cabinet at the top of the wall oven cabinet. No, it isn't easily accessible but it is great for storing large, infrequently needed things. -- dadiOH ____________________________ dadiOH's dandies v3.06... ....a help file of info about MP3s, recording from LP/cassette and tips & tricks on this and that.

Can wall oven be installed under cooktop?
Simple answer to all this. Go visit a couple of high end appliance
stores or kitchen design centers. They have experience as to what is available and works well in this application. And it's worth paying a little more to get a good solution. If it were me, as others have suggested, I'd probably get advice on the overall design too, rather than the specific issue. A good kitchen design house may have ideas you haven't thought of, and that no one can offer without seeing the layout. Not to say this is where you are headed, but I've seen so many houses with screwed up kitchens that detract from their value. Things like microwaves built in under a center island, where you have to stoop over to get to it. Or refrigerators that stick out 6" past the ends of the cabinets. Or a std size single bowl sink in a kitchen with granite countertops. With a little professional planning, a lot of this could be avoided. |

With a little professional planning, a lot of
this could be avoided. Some of the biggest goof-ups in kitchen planning have been perpetrated by professionals. Double check their advice by building some rudimentary cardboard mock-ups, making your own drawings and checking for interferences, and by just sitting down and doing some mental simulations once you have a good feel for the proposed design. Many kitchen planning "pros" are high school dropouts. |

Thanks, Wayne I have a Jenn-Aire model S161 with the induction option. These ranges have "cartridges" allowing a choice of glass/ceramic top, conventional coil, solid ceramic elements and induction. The induction cartridge part numbers include A130R (white), A135R (black) Perhaps with the Maytag takeover of Jenn-Aire and the subsequent take-over of Maytag by Whirlpool, these models or options have been discontinued? I'll have to research that myself. Doug |

Thanks, Wayne They've probably discontinued the model Jenn-Air slide in range that I have. However, on their website I see their current model listed with optional top cartridges: JES9860BAS Yet, in the online owner's manual, I do see various cartridge options available with no mention of induction. I suspect that a call to them would be in order since I know that the induction cartridges are still available via their parts department. Doug |

Bummer. Cheers, Wayne |
