30 Wolf wall oven under counter next to 48 Sub Z
Comments (0)It's final cabinet layout time and I am questioning every decision I have made over an 18 month planning process. I went back to the appliance showroom yesterday to look at the 30" Wolf wall oven that I plan to mount under the counter away from the stove top area. I think the control panel will start about 3" under the counter. Has anyone else done this? If so, have you had any problems being able to view the controls? Also- did you use a 24" deep cab, or did you extend depth to 26" or 27"? The install specs seem to require an extended depth unless the back panel of the cab is removed. This oven will be on the same wall as the Sub Z 48" counter depth. I looked carefully at the installation yesterday and it seems like the most integrated look of a wood paneled Sub Z requires a 2-3" build out from standard cab depth. So, I was thinking that it might make sense to make the whole cab run in this area about 27" deep....See More30 inch counter depth/base cabinets - advantages/disadvantages
Comments (25)@bikewalkbarb, we used a regular 24x30 cabinet and pulled it forward 6” by building the hip wall. I put in what most people would call a prep sink. It’s this one: Check out this NORRSJÖN from IKEA. Here’s a little more information: https://ingka.page.link/1BkPy6CpRXDnUGK17 I pulled the sink as far forward as the original sink was, so I now have a large space in the back where I have my knife block (since the cabinet above the sink allows me to pull the knives out without sliding the block forward), a dish storing my scrubbing pads, and in the back right corner is an ikea dish strainer. We didn’t have enough space on the right either and so I went with the smaller deep sink (still fits the Insta pot fine). So on the right I have the dish strainer pushed all the way to the corner and our coffee pot right in front of it. Probably looks a bit crowded, but our kitchen is smaller and I can fill the coffee pot directly from the pull down faucet (I went with moen (sp?)). I pushed the sink as far as left in the 30 inch cabinet as I could and turned the right side into a pull out drawer where our garbage and recycles are now. Still working on trim and some touch up painting. Took these quick this morning so things might be a bit of a mess....See MoreCorner next to wall oven - what depth for upper cabinets?
Comments (12)We drew up 2 alternate designs a while back, one with the wall oven on the opposite wall (left of the door where we now plan to put some pantry cabinets), and one with the oven on the adjacent wall which gets rid of the corner. The later eliminated too much storage in our relatively small kitchen, the former created a safety hazard b/c the oven doors would open across the doorway with too much potential for kids and scatterbrained adults to collide with open oven doors. So the compromise is the somewhat awkward corner shown in the drawing. Our current range/oven is next to a corner on the opposite side of the kitchen with approximately the same dimensions as the plan. I payed attention yesterday to where/how I stand when putting items into and pulling out of the oven, and where/how I place them on the counter. I think we'll be OK....and the mixer will fit, too!...See More30 inch Bosch slide in induction range- cabinet depth
Comments (13)@wdccruise you are incorrect about having to select an element first. Here's how it actually works. You set the pan/pot on the element, then turn the stovetop on. The stove automatically senses where the pot/pan is, so all you have to do is select your temperature. To change the temp, you just select the number you wish. If you have more than one pot on the stove, then yes, you'll have to select what element you wish to use for that second pot. There is a grid on the stove to select which burner, very easy to use. There is no slide of any kind, so I don't know what you mean by" virtual slider." Bosch's temperature settings are numbers listed on a linear line. You tap which number or 1/2 number matches the temperature you desire. IMO it's much to-do about nothing using a touchpad rather than knobs. And knobs are harder to clean. However, Bosch is switching to knobs for its range. I think because people are having a hard time adjusting to the idea of a range that doesn't have knobs. I remember being so confused by my old electric range, trying to figure out which knob I should choose for which burner. In the 20 years I owned that range it was never intuitive and so-so many times my husband and I turned on the wrong burner. The Bosch range is totally intuitive, not hard to comprehend, and we've found that the touchpad becomes automatic for the user in no time at all. Plus Bosch has a cook timer for each hob, which automatically turns the element off when it's done--I never would have dreamed how much I would use that feature. My countertops are perfectly level, because we made sure they were when we installed the cabinets....See MoreHannah Koenker
